CONWAY, N.H. - This is a crowd that is virtually all white. This is the least emotive state in the Union. This is a town that voted decisively for Barry Goldwater in 1964. This is where thousands of people filled the parking lot of Kennett High School in the hope of seeing a black man who is running for president.
This also may be the political phenomenon of the age. Inside the high school, where a banner boasts of 15 state high school boys' skiing championships since 1979, voters of a state where natives like to tell visitors that they can't get there from here are straining - you can almost see their eyes squinting to will this to come true - to believe that Barack Obama can go from the gym in Conway to the White House in Washington.
