Most notably, the IDP has a strong interest in maintaining their first-to-vote status, which the DNC hates. Hence the eternal drift of primaries earlier and earlier - the DNC will try to move non-Iowa/NH primaries earlier, and those two will in response go even earlier to preempt them. (To the point where New Hampshire even passed a law saying that they have to be the first primary by at least 7 days.)
