Well, I said I wasn't going to, but I went to our Democratic state caucuses last Saturday if for no other reason than curiosity. This state has a pretty broken system, with a primary election coming up that we pay for but which doesn't count.

At my in-city caucus site, a decent-sized elementary school, the hall was pretty full and it was a challenge to get precincts somewhat separated and to hear speakers in each one.

There were a few folks there older than me (55), but not many. Great to see so many young idealists, but not representative of what you would get for turnout in a typical primary. In Boston, I remember campaigns running vans to elderly housing facilities. No elder vans last Saturday.

As results would confirm, the button count looked like Obama over Hillary 2 to 1.

And it looks like Barack is on a roll.

Not sure that matters.

Prediction: Barack will continue to pick up more delegates than Hillary. But then superdelegates will go to convention and deliver the nomination to Hillary. Democracy in action.

Have a nice day.
