LIVE THREAD - New Hampshire Primary

[NYC Republican]

Game's ON... My prediction... Obama in a blowout, McCain by 5.

[Shortstop7]

He may win this before it’s over. Only 38% counted, and he’s down 3,000 votes.

[dandiegirl]

“huckabilly” is disgusting. Not presidentail at all. It makes me cringe when I see him playing his guitar-GAG!

[popdonnelly]

“I just saw a dead ringer for Peter Boyle in the front row of the McCain crowd.”

You’ve got the sixth sense! “Dead ringer” might be a poor choice of words.

[JRochelle]

NEWSFLASH:

There is no conservative candidate in NH tonight.

This was a competition among RINOs.

[jmj3jude]

Not according to intra-trade. I think this was a big set up from the media and Clintons. They either cheated or the convinced the independents to go for John McCain because Obama had it all wrapped up.

[TheLion]

Oh bull....he is beating the snot out of your guy and you are a sore loser.

[Momaw Nadon]

I agree with those that say the extra ballots were probably fixed.

I do not believe this was an honest win by Hillary.

I'm officially calling Shenanigans! on the Clinton campaign.

[DeusExMachina05]

watch Merrimac County and Derry. Those are good indicators of how the upscale voters are going for the rats. They havent reported many southern counties yet in NH.

[TBBT]

I could care less what’s happening on the Dems side. Obama, Hillary... What’s the difference?

We’ve got a mess in our own back yard to clean up before I worry about the demosocialist...

[SharpTalons]

Petronski is blinded to the big picture. We all know what Huckabee and McCain bring to the table. They are known quanitities. Romney, while far from being an ideal candidate showed alot of potential like another late bloomer from hailed from California.

[itslex71]

McCain reading a speech. Gee, how inspriring. THANKS NEW HAMPSHIRE. Ugh.

[relee]

It might have been “Mac is back” but it sure sounded like “Yankees Suck!”

[Bush gal in LA]

‘’Something smells’’..........
Thinking the same way you are,,,,,,,,,,,

What people don’t seem to get, if if Mitt keeps coming in at one or two, he will win this thing big time. No other candidate is going to do as well across the board.

More importantly, McCain is simply unpopular among Republicans. Once he leaves his independent enclave of NH, it just gets harder and harder. And McCain has very little cash, while Romney ought to be worth a bundle. Mitt Romney founded Bain Capital in 1984 with $37 million. His first investment? Staples, Inc. Bain now manages $50 billion. So I think Mitt can continue this quest as long as he likes. Also, for what it's worth, his former fraternity buddy at BYU says that Romney is determined to become President to fulfill a Mormon prophecy called "White Horse" which involves a Mormon "saving" the Constitution and establishing a Mormon theocracy. (Take that for what it's worth).

[Constantine XIII]

He might be a goober, but he has a LOT of really nice basses.

[tennmountainman]

I am unsure about that

[oldbrowser]

Most of the Iowa evangelicals voted against the Huckster.

He only got 46% of that vote.

But the other 54% was split six ways so he got more of the vote than any body else.

[Bosco]

I beg to differ.

Rush is right: Once We Get Out of Iowa and New Hampshire, the GOP Race Begins

[JeffAtlanta]

Do you have to be an attorney to serve on the supreme court?

[hole_n_one]

If I'm not mistaken, McCain simply changed the date of his speech from 2000 to 2008.

In fact, it looks like some of the same people are in the front row........wearing the same clothes as 8 years ago.
