NBC is calling New Hampshire for Hillary Clinton tonight. Hillary’s victory appears to come as a result of a big win amongst women voters, as well as a large niumber of independents choosing to vote in the Republican primary for John McCain. With 68% reporting Hillary Clinton has 39%, Barack Obama has 36%, and John Edwards has 17%. NH has dealt another sharp blow to the pollsters and pundits, who had Obama winning NH by as much as 10%. I believe that my friend David Paleologis of Channel 7 Boston is the only pollster I know to call for Hillary. This is a new race, with the Clinton’s once again winning while their back is against the wall.

Your Honor,
Relatively close election. No knock out.
Different states will offer varying demographics.
It will become nasty as the front runners try to gain wins in large primaries.
It would be nice if there were statements of policy and ideas to solve problems.
Charismatic or gender centric worship will result in questionable results. Obama uses Deval’s “Together we can” call. It hasn’t done much for Massachusetts.
Question;
Can you summarize substantive policies or principles by the Democratic candidates?
I have listened to the republicans and I hear nothing that I like. It almost like there are two Democratic parties.

I feel safe predicting that Obama will carry both Nevada and South Carolina. I hear that there is an effort in Michigan (where Clinton is the only name on the ballot) to have people vote “Uncommitted” as a way to defeat her there. If that occurs, the Clinton campaign will be in grave condition. Obama is going to win places like California and Massachusetts on Super Tuesday, and will certainly sweep the Southern states. In my opinion, Clinton’s NH victory was a flash in the pan. If she can manage to pull of a victory in Nevada, and do better than expected in SC, she may be able to complete her comeback. If not, a second Clinton presidency isn’t in the cards.
