I have a table of all US States. I use this table to associate users,
posts and comments. Simple enough, but...

I can't figure out how to get other fields out of the States table
(state name instead of the id field) when I'm associating Posts and
Comments.

For example:

Post belongsTo State and hasMany comments -> Comment belongsTo State

In the view, for the Comments section, I would like to get the
state_name field out of my table instead of the default state_id
field.  How do I go about doing that. Is that done in the Model or
through a find function in the Controller?

Unless I'm totally wrong (which is possible), HABTM doesn't apply to
this situation.

Any advice or direction would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.
