No more Howard Dean's either - because the only way Dean got to be taken seriously at all was by devoting himself intitially to making a reputation for himself early in the small early states that gave him a media spotlight of sorts ONLY because they were early states.
If we have a national primary day it will all be about expensive national media from day one, non establishment candidates need not apply.
