With an open primary on both sides in 2008, the conservative activists will be very important on the Republican side in New Hampshire. Now, Rudy might win in a three-way split with 30% of the vote, but it won't be easy without the gun and pro-life people. You know, the ones who do standouts at the polls all day when it's 10 degrees with a howling wind.
Should I remind you that John McCain beat GW Bush by 20 points in NH in 2000....These mythical conservative stalwarts who are pro-life and pro-gun dont exists anymore in NH..this isnt 1980....Most likey they are social moderates who are conservative on taxes....While NH is more to the right than other NE states, it isnt Utah or Mississippi as some here are trying to protray it
