I'm even more disgusted with the media than ever before, which is saying much. They did nothing but play up the Hillary bit yesterday, reported all this polling about an Obama blow-out and how close McCain and Romney were, and if I were a conspiracy nut I would think there was a coordinated effort to push Hillary up just so there would be "news". Manufactured news, but news.

The same thing happened last year in MD when Steele was supposedly so close to Cardin.

That's it for me watching this stuff. I don't mind being a political junkie, but I'm through with this dishonesty in reporting. I think I'll kick the habit and just drop out.

New Hampshire is not a wound, it’s a scratch.

And I find myself supporting HUCKABEE over McCain...

It is a depressing primary season. If either of those two are nominated, our will honor our Founders and NOT vote. These two men would shred what remains of our Constitution and push us into a socialist Hell.

Republicans voting for McCain and Huckabee in the first two states. Uggh! My party has left me.

Voted as instructed by the leftstream media. I know I will feel better tomorrow, but tonight?

Fred has no money and not enough time to turn things around.

Fred has six million dollars. As of now, it's McCain who's broke.

We WANT CLINTON to be the nominee. She will be MUCH, MUCH easier to beat. Go Clinton!

Just a note on the Democratic side. Does anyone else find it funny that Gravel is being beaten by Biden?

"That encouraged independents that they didn’t have to vote for Obama because he was going to crush her anyway, while the polls showed their other good buddy McCain was in trouble."

Bing! Bing! Give the man his award for the most concise and correct explanation of tonight's unfolding events.

Wasn’t McCain part of the Gang Of 14 threatening the “nuclear option”?

Yes he was and I don't believe, once the independents aren't included in the mix, that he will win the vote of the base. Can't wait to hear how the numbers played out on his win.

Romney’s down. Iowa gone, New Hampshire, gone - last of the major candidates in national polls.

Time for a reality check. Romney will be coming out of NH with 20-21 total delegates, Huck with maybe 15, McCain with 9.

Romney can keep this up, winning high in each state, and as long as no one else can be more than one-day wonders in some particular spot, he'll maintain the real lead.

They must have rented out every bus and van in the state to ferry the bluehairs to the voting booths. Come to think of it, maybe it was Hillary’s people throwing the “free pot” parties afterall..

Here is something worth rooting for... That Rudy edges out the Huckadisaster for 3rd! Now that would make for a good night.

Was that the Thompson plan all along? Give conservatives an alternative to Romney, so Romney wouldn’t become the inevitable candidate and McCain would have time to get off the floor and stage a comeback?

It would explain why Thompson didn’t compete much for anything before South Carolina, and why he ignored NH, and why he jumped into Iowa to try to take the shine off of Huckabee so he wouldn’t become too powerful before New Hampshire.

I think Thompson wants to be president, but you sure could look at his campaign and think he’s doing it for McCain.

He won’t even attack McCain for McCain/Feingold.

The way it was presented was the he just couldn’t be bothered waiting, he blew Howie off on Friday and then couldn’t wait ONE minute to get on the air.....thompson doesn’t have much of a hope to win this anyway, his numbers are very low, it’s time for him to move on
