3 senators call for regional primaries for 2012 election - The Boston Globe

This sounds like a good idea coming from our very own Senator, Lamar Alexander: presidential primaries held by region. 3 senators call for regional primaries for 2012 election - The Boston Globe:
"The proposed legislation would break the country into four areas, which would take turns having the first set of primaries. Iowa and New Hampshire would remain as the nation's first caucus and first primary."
An omnibus bill (?) or wholesale way of addressing the "creeping primary schedule" issue might motivate all states to come on board with the plan.
