More on the Massachusetts primary...
A few more observations about the primary in Massachusetts: I voted this morning, apparently in the midst of heavy turnout. There is this charming tradition of sign holding for candidates outside of the voting areas. I don't know how common this is-- certainly, it wasn't the case in other states I have lived and voted in (Michigan and New Jersey). It is all quite civil-- I walked by the Obama (two) and Clinton (one) sign holders and they were talking about local affairs. There no Romney signs, notably, since this is his home town (although I am sure he votes in the higher rent precinct). And, of course, the sign holders are members of the community, so people who pass by always are stopping to chat with the sign holders. These little exchanges, I think, are the microscopic civic foundations of a democracy.
