![]() AP Photo I feel obliged to write a post on primary voting today in four states, so here it is. Politico has a nice summary of what's happening where. I continue to resist carving meta-narratives out of discrete results in races from around the country. If Joe Sestak beats Arlen Specter, for example, okay, an incumbent has lost, but is that really evidence of a broad anti-incumbent fever? No. It's evidence that a guy who's been a Democrat all his (short) career is in better standing with Democratic voters than a guy who just recently became a Democrat. I wouldn't find that a very shocking result.
