MANCHESTER, N.H.--Mitt Romney won the New Hampshire primary Tuesday, the second state in a row he has carried in his campaign for the 2012 Republican presidential nomination.

Romney is the first Republican, not including incumbent presidents, to win both the Iowa caucuses and the New Hampshire primary since Iowa Republicans began holding their first-in-the-nation caucuses in 1976.

Ron Paul came in second; Jon Huntsman in third.

It was a start-to-finish victory for Romney in New Hampshire, who led in the polls here throughout the 2012 campaign. Romney owns a summer home in the state, which borders his home state of Massachusetts, where he served as governor from 2003 to 2007.

From here, the candidates go on to South Carolina, the first primary in the South. There, Romney's electoral dominance will not be a such a foregone conclusion....

No, it’s not, but it is reflective of the NATIONAL electorate.

OSU won because a kicker couldn't make a chip shot causing an overtime.

We just sucked.

It would have been nice to beat OSU, but you guys just were not up to going to the big dance.

We really sucked yesterday.

You’re right, in fact he missed two. Maybe you should realize not only OSU but Stanford would’ve wiped the floor w your team. And I don’t give the bama offense much respect either. Pretty pathetic.

LSU wiped the floor with Oregon, doesn’t speak well for what Stanford would have done to LSU.

Too bad you guys lost to Iowa State, otherwise we would have played and you would be congratulating me.
And I wouldn't have to put up with any crap from my bro-in-law.

Our defense would have shut you down just like we did all year.

Held bama to field goals till late in the 4Q

OSU really had no defense to speak of. Thats reality.

Lets not compare conferences because everyone knows the SEC is the most dominate.

Stanford lost to the ducks. We beat the ducks opening game this year.

No contest.

Weeden however is a better QB than Jefferson. I'll give you that.

The biggest topic of the week and FR could only garner 32 comments...

What does that tell you about this site’s ability to influence events?

I sent a contribution to Newt a few weeks ago, and loved Santorum’s ‘Game On’ speech after Iowa. But neither got into this game early enough with enough man and manpower to play in the big leagues. I’ve been very ill for a year and couldn’t manage to study enough to decide which team to join. What is everyone else’s excuse?

Our candidates brought water pistols to St. Valentine’s Day massacre.

Mr. Nice Guy, or Mr. Right Guy just doesn’t cut it. I think we’re going to be stuck with Mr. Waffle. Although that is marginally better than Mr. Alinsky Marxist.

What a difference a network makes...I had CNN on about an hour ago and when I flipped on MSNBC their panel said Republican turn out was lower by 40,000 votes than 2008...then they said that Romney won with 36% of the vote (actually 40%) and how Obama will clean his clock in November because Romney basically owns that state and had 5 years to campaign there and that was the best he could do.

Turned back CNN and they said turnout was about 6,500 more votes this year than in 2008 and that Romney won by 23-24% tonight over the closest challenger.

Seriously, why does MSNBC even bother trying to come off as a news organization?

You’re defense couldn’t shut down a punk bama offense. OSU or Stanford would’ve torn you limb from limb. But you’re right they would’ve made it seem like you had an offense. That was the most anti-anti-climatic big game I’ve ever seen. Should’ve called it the Ambien Bowl.
