Yesterday I went to a political press conference that took place at a major intersection where everyone stood a mere feet away from traffic screaming by at 50+ mph. For whatever reason it was decided that the best corner of the four available would be the only one without a sidewalk and space to get more than three feet from the road. Supporters of another candidate came out with signs to (I’m guessing) make it seem to passersby that it was their candidate gathered at this corner. Campaigns are all about posturing and image, but I’m not sure either put a whole lot of thought into how they looked standing out there yesterday.
