Who won Super Tuesday?

Surprise answer (maybe): We did!

The voters - all of us, Republicans, Democrats, and (where allowed) Independents.

Both parties set turnout records (tho' the Dems set more records than the Republicans).

I still think the primary system is a noble but failed experiment, and that we ought to return to the venerable "smoke-filled room" to choose our Presidential candidates... but still: it's exciting to see so many of my fellow citizens actively participating in our democracy!

This is shaping up to be a really fun Presidential Election year!
