CNN

These primaries were a tie. 8-8 in delagates. Those are all that matters. Obama is still ahead!!!!!!!!

Cry, then

Trick or Treat

N.H. Women Tricked

Hillary got the Treat

I did not see hillary sniffle during the many Clinton W.H. Scandle

Ha Ha New Hampshire - You may have gaurenteed a republican victory. His politics (Divider) unlike husband. Obama and her husband connect with all people. The Dem for will be split with this type of Trickery on her own Dem.

Dems are Falling for anything

I think Democrats have to ask the following question of themselves: do we want to nominate someone whose tagline is "I have been *fighting* with Republicans for 16 years". This is the only experience the Clinton camp is making a case for. This experience is not a recipe for any kind of change, but a recipe for four counter-productive years of division which will leave this country worse off then before. I hope that we as Americans, both Democrat and Republican, can come to our senses and elect a leader that is not out to settle a score.

I think the math wizards in here need to go back and take a refresher course. We have had 4 years of daddy bush, 8 years of Slick Wille and 8 years of Dubya. 4 + 8 + 8 = 20. I've seen 26 years, 28 years and 32 years ( if Hillary wins). Remember that we are talking about increments of 4 years people. The numbers have to be divisable by 4. Now 26 is not divisable by four, but 28 is and that is only if Hillary wins two terms. It is certainly not 32 years. It's 20 years of Bush/Clintons and 24 or 28 if she wins. Duh. Is it any wonder why we can never agree when even the math is butchered?

And let's get another thing straight. I don't care who they are, Democrat or Republican, The country is not going to change. You will still have the Washington political machine in power and it is not geared toward change, as the Democrats and Republican hopefuls have tried to convince you they will do. Anyone niave enought to believe the polotics in this country can change is dreaming. Healthcare is not going to change, immigration is not going to change and the only thing that 'may' change about in Iraq is the rate of our pullout because of a party change.

Have we all forgoten what it cost women of this country to be taken serious? or what about having to right to vote? Now we have the opportunity to have a real and strong voice to lead our country, Hillary has had my vote even before she announced that she was going to be on the race. Go Hillary!

As some previous posters have commented, but sadly CNN has completely missed – popular votes are meaningless. (Remember that guy Al Gore?) NH was tie, 9 to 9. With a headline like "Clinton Claims Victory In New Hampshire Democratic Primary", it is a wonder these Clintons are singing the blues about unfair treatment from the media. There IS no victory here, but the press has GIVEN them one! Clinton might have surpassed her own expectations, but she will never win the hearts and minds of enough voters to win the general election. As it stands today, this country will not elect an establishment candidate.

I watched the election results all night until finally the call came that Hillary had won the primary in N.H. I was elated because prior to the election I was fuming with all the rhetoric from the so called political pundits. I am so glad that their stats were blown out of the water. My family felt they were lying from the very beginning to help the Obama campaign. Voters like me will not be swayed because of your political opinions. I firmly believe that Hillary is the best person to become the next president of the USA. The media has tried everything to promote negativity towards Hillary Clinton and in the process painting a picture of Obama as the candidate of the people. There has been so much hatred spread by the media against the Clinton's it is disgusting. I remember how good we had it under the administration of President Bill Clinton, many Americans became millionaires and our budget was in the black, we had the best of times. He did a hell of a job with the economy, but now under Bush we have the worst economy in lthe history of the USA. For the very first time in my lifetime I have watched our dollar's value go down, this is of grave concern to me. Barack Obama is a JR.SENATOR who has not paid his dues yet and needs to gain more experience. Hillary's experience is unquestionable and she is talking about the real issues that are affecting us the middle class of America, economy, health issues, the war, making our American dollar strong once again. l can't wait until I am able to go out and cast my vote for our next president of the USA -HILLARY RODHAM CLINTON. We love the Clinton's!

What is she wearing?

I am hard pressed to believe that voters can be swayed by a candidate "tearing-up" in public, but I think the act itself combined with the overwhelming media attention it garnered certainly helped. But that's not the point of my comments.

If anyone actually believes that HILLARY CLINTON can win in a general election, then I will submit that they are out of touch with America. She is not a candidate of change. We will go right back to the 90's if she's elected. Remember that? Congress and the President at each other's throats, special investigations, continuing resolutions, impeachment hearings, and scandal after scandal. Sounds a lot like things these days, now that I think of it.

The name Clinton invokes as much visceral, partisan venom as does the name Bush. I hope America doesn't fall for the teary-eyed, chameleon that is Hillary Clinton and the smug, arrogant, self-serving, "liberal elites" that comprise the Clinton political machine.

well they all lie its POLITICS!!! Pick the least of the liars. New Hampshire was wise to pick Hillary!!

Just goes to show that Iowa has a better Education system, because last night's outcome was just plain ignorant.

Jersey City
St. Peter's College
2:30 PM
If you want real change come!
OBAMA 2008

Victory? It was by a hair she took the lead last night. VICTORY WAS IOWA!
Obama you have my vote and I am going to St. Peters College in Jersey City to hear you....I don't care that I have to take 3 busses to hear you talk!

America, think about this, when you need a job done, realistically, do you really consider a person's character or do you consider the ability and experience of that individual? In the condition that this country is in does it really matter whether a person has "feel good words" or do we want someone that will not hesitate to roll up their sleeves and get the job done? Hillary is the one! She speaks from the heart, it's her passion to bring this country back to the people, freedom, liberty and justice for all!

HILLARY CLINTON FOR PRESIDENT! She can get the job done!

You should be ashamed to call yourselves reporters. The real story of these past few weeks is the arcanity of the Iowa caucus. It is laughable that John King would declare Hillary finished if she lost in NH. Shape up your so-called polling systems , minimize your extremely biased pundits (e.g.,Bill Bennet) and report the news. If I wanted you to predict the future president I would ask my local astrologer.

"When I visited Iowa in early December and did some phone calling and canvassing, within two days it was obvious to me that our campaign had a big challenge. A very large number of Hillary’s supporters were telling me that they supported Hillary and would vote for her in November, but they were not going to go to the caucuses. Old people, people who work night shift or 2 jobs, working moms, single moms all have a really hard time going to the caucus. These are our supporters. I was alarmed and talked with campaign staff and indeed the campaign knew in October that this was a huge obstacle for us. This is why I spent most of the month of December in Iowa and asked others to do the same. I felt that it was critical to pull out all the stops. The last two weeks my hope was that we could finish second. We tried very hard to convince our supporters to go to the caucus. About 70% of our supporters had never been to a caucus before. We told them that if 1/3 of Hillary’s supporters did not go to the caucus she would not do well in Iowa. We trained them on the caucus. We organized rides and buddies for them. They got this message multiple ways throughout the month. There was not a single supporter that was overlooked. We had a huge contingent on the ground working on this and support from unions and EMILY’s List. We got 70,000 people there when normally about 150K total participate. But it was not enough.

I was very surprised as I travelled around the state that I did not encounter any groundswell for Obama. For this reason I thought that Obama would come in third. Edwards was strong and I thought he would likely win. In the week prior to the caucus, many undecideds I spoke with broke for Hillary and Edwards. I did not find many breaking for Obama. I was in Creston, Ottumwa, Marshalltown, Iowa City, Dubuque, Fort Madison, and Mason City. I got the same story from every field organizer. They felt good. They felt our support was solid. They did not see movement toward Obama but there was movement towards Edwards and he was our competition. These field organizers were not in touch with one another so the fact that each told me this independently was significant. I was really surprised that Obama was so confident the two days before the caucus. There were many undecideds still. It was not at all clear what the outcome was going to be. I found it very disturbing that he was so confident.

The caucus itself was shockingly unorganized. The email below from a friend of mine says it all. In Iowa you can simply show up and vote. No one even checks your i.d. I was at a middle school in which about 7 precincts met. There was mass confusion – many people had no idea what ward or precinct they were in. There were no computer facilities to check – I happened to have a rough map I let people look at. I’m sure many were in the wrong rooms. In the precinct where I was no one was at the door to the caucus room making sure that people registered. People could just walk in. At the registration table there were 2 people checking in 122 participants. Many participants were brand new and clearly not known to their neighbors. There were people in the room who were not residents and it was the honor system whether they voted or not. The person who was chair and ran the meeting was inexperienced and he did not have control of the crowd. The rules were not followed. When an experienced person tried to have the rules followed, people got very confrontational with him. So it was a mess. In the precinct I attended Hillary won, Obama was second and Edwards was third."

Yes! the people in New Hempshire have the right idea and have an understanding of why Hillary Clinton will win the Presidential Nomination! Thank you New Hempshire for giving the People of this Nation something to think about. We should not allow words such as "inspiration" divert us from the real issues of this country! Thank you.

One overlooked key to her victory was her strength and deportment in handling Bill O'Reilly and one of her campain stops the day before the primary. Dems hate O'Reilly and this contributed to a surprising result.

With the Clinton victory in NH...comes the new title for January 8th....is now officially "Dolt Day" in NH – the day for all ostriches to stick their heads in the sand and vote for a polar candidate who subscribes to the "position du jour" – what is she today...the strong candidate who will bravely lead the country...or someone who will weep when she is asked about a haircut?? will today be the day she supports licensing illegal aliens in an effort to have them purchase auto insurance....or will it be the day that this was a bad idea....the great thing is....no matter where you stand....Hillary stood there too at one point in her campaign

Baffling group....dolt is the operative word

Americans need to read between the lines, being "inspirational" and saying that you can "make change" is not enough to get this country in the direction it needs to go. Look at our trillion dollar deficit, look at our education, the economy, gas prices, etc...this is a huge challenge! Obama can't do it nor can Edwards!

OBAMA and EDWARDS are not the right candidates, look at their records. This country cannot afford to provide on the job training to Obama or Edwards.

EXPERIENCE plays a role in making change. The American people were fooled once by the present administration, let's not be fooled again. Americans need to know that Hillary Clinton is the only one, besides Richardson, that can bring "CHANGE" and turn this country around and give it back to the American people.

Let's face it Hillary has exactly what this country needs (experience and backbone)to get in there (white house) on day one and begin to bring change. Thank you.

Still from Central African, I have come to mean that American people are ready for a Black President in the White House. So the big question is: Is Obama the President Americans are ready for? Is he profiled like well-known black celebrities: Colling Powel, Condy, etc? Is he that man? Obama is without a shadow of the doubt a very talented orator. Will this talent last long as the battle goes? I am afraid that, at any moment during the ongoing selecting process, one will question the real experience of Obama in the White House. As a 46 years old candidate, many are making comparison with JFK or 1992-Bill Clinton. But at 1992, Bill was already a 14-year experienced Arkansas Governor. Some one will point out the lack of experience of 2000-Bush Junior. The fact is that many American knew very well that the son would rely on the father’s team. And now, it’s true to all American that Hilary will rely on Bill’s team. What about Obama? Who is the team he will rely on? Trusting a good orator sometimes looks like receiving gospel from the church. People at time will wake up questioning Obama on his really managing skill. Will four year experience as Senator convince enough? I doubt but Wait and see.

Lets see how far her "own voice" of tears will carry her. Statisticshave shown that the women age 40 and above gave her a boost. This was only decided after the coffee shop incident. Also, based on statisticsHC won the vote for "experience" and BO won the vote for "change". That don't add up... You can't have "experience" and the people not trust you to make "change". So, clearly the "emotional moment" pushed her to victory. I think HC is a great person, but not good for the presidency. I want real change...

I am so tired of Mrs. Clinton....Am I the only one? Please Take us to the promise land Obama!

This shows that women are not very sharp. They fell for the fake "tears" in the diner. It was all scripted. The reporters out numbered suppoters by 5 to 1. Did you see what she wore last night during the speech? She has not only changed her "voice" but her clothes as well to appeal to the not so sharp females. I have never seen Hillary wear anything that femanine.

I voted for Clinton both times. I will not vote for Hillary. She lost me when she moved to NY for one reason only, to get the vacated Senate seat. Her only ambition is to seek the next highest position. This time it happens to be the Presidency. It's a good thing there is no worldwide position because she would run for that next.

And what's this thing about 35 years of experience? Does she include those six years on the board of Wal-mart in her fight for the un-insured and the poor? Is she counting the years when Bill was the president as her own experience? My wife has been a lawyer for twenty years. Can I please handle your divorce? Come on now, my wife has been doing it for some time now, I am qualified.

Bush 4 years, Clinton 8 years, Bush 8 years, Clinton ? years... This is not a Democracy but a Dynasty. This is no different than Bhutto leaving her 19 year old son the throne of Pakistan in her will.

We already know that our polititions know how to spend money at an alarming rate so how about if we try something new and Elect the Candidate that spends the least amount of money on thier campaign.
Should we Elect anyone that is already in any political office when we consider the fact that we are already into the second fiscal quarter of 08 and we dont yet have a budget passed

Wonder if the Clinton clan ushered in the Daily vote manfacturing machine from Chicago for this paper win?

I was very hopeful after Iowa that true change is coming. No more candidates supported predominantly by corporate supporters & by others who have enough money to influence politicians. I see where this is going and I don't like it. I also had hope that DEMOCRATS could finally pick a candidate that could finally win.

I'm now worried that Democrats will continue their trend in nominating candidates who can't win. Republicans have only one hope in winning this election, despite all their faults and all the damage they're doing and will continue to do. They want her to win so they can win. They are experts at making an opposition candidate so distasteful to large segments of the population compared to a poor GOP alternative. Hillary would be so easy.

I HAVE NO SYMPATHY FOR PATHETIC LOSERS THAT CONTINUE TO PICK CANDIDATES THAT CAN'T WIN. YOU DO IT TO YOURSELVES AND I DON'T WANT TO HEAR ANY CRYING WHEN HILLARY LOSES IN NOV.

Please, anyone (DEM) but her.

Just one thing...
When Obama was doing his speech yesterday. it looks more like a baptist chuch speech than a president speech. did you hear everybody inthe back repeating his words. yes we can..in a transe..THAT'S VERY SCARY!!

AMERICA, YOU NEED A PRESIDENT...NOT A PREACHER!!

Go look at what he has done...you better look very hard cause he hasn't done very much yet. And we still don't know what is going to do..ONLY WORDS WORDS WORDS..

FACE THE FACT AMERICA. THE ONLY ONE WHO HAS ALL IT TAKES ANS HAS PROVE HERSELF IS HILARY.EVEN IF YOU DON'T LIKE HER. THAT'S YOUR BEST CHOICE.

crocodile tears don't move me a bit. There will be no change with someone as entrenched as clinton

It is not over yet. time for idealism, character, honesty, integrity and judgement. Go Barack!

Is Hilary the first woman to win a primary? Liz Dole is a remarkable lady, I am not sure whether she won a primary?

fantastic political move for Clinton to show the "softer" side-unfortunately not believable and actually depressing to see how manipulative this move was

Obama continues to be the frontrunner despite numbers. He is not wavering in his message and the biggest compliment to him is the fact that now nearly everyone is emulating him and his message

39:37=9 delegates each=its a tie
48 states to go

keep on going and get out the vote before you call a winner

As a black African watching from Central Africa (EST+6), I went to bed knowing that I would wake up this morning with another Obama big win. It was Hilary! Sincerely from now my opinion is that we are very far from who will be the elected Democrat candidate, Hilary or Obama. But one thing seems clear to me: For Hilary time for huge battle has come, no matter who shall be the opponent, either party-mate senator Obama or any republican else. For Obama, speech talent will not prevail. He needs more talent to upset the strong lady who will count on her husband spirit of battle. Wait and see. Experience and dream : what the American will vote for?

I am independent and leaning towards dems this coming election. The media gave Obama a free pass. The men in the NH democratic debate ganged on HC. The women in NH watched, listened and reacted – the rest is history. Kudos to NH – no one tells you what to do or how to do it!!! For me it is a gender issue. I want a woman in the oval office this time.

Whatever way you look at the results in NH, how amazing is it that the competition for the Democratic nomination for President is between a woman and an African-American. How historical is that!! But I am humiliated as a woman that it appears Clinton won the popular vote because women fell for the crocodile tears. When a man shows emotional vulnerblity he is dismissed as being "weak", Remember McCain, McCarthy? \When Clinton does the same women, who should know better, feel sorry for her and shift their vote. When she is sitting in the war room, do we want the tears? If Obama had teared up would the women have turned their vote to him? Obama is an orator, Hillary has blatantly stolen his message couching it as her own in her own convoluted speachs. Her tears were disingenuous, And, btw, a split of delegates does not constitute a win, a two percent lead is almost negligible. Give me a break, Hillary; sorry but you are not the "comeback kid" . And that "voice" you finally found, where have you been hiding it for 35 years. Late bloomer, aren't you. On the other hand Obama has had his voice from the beginning and never lost touch with it. Watch out for the blast of negativity coming out of the Clinton Headquarters and watch Obama rise above it. And shame on Bill Clinton for using half of an Obama quote to start it all with nasty accusations against Obama. Shameful display of desperation.

A woman in NC who will not be voting for Hillary.

I am very happy that Hillary won the New Hampshire primary. Obama preaches about change and the things he will do. Tell us about what you've actually done instead of what you will do. I for one think he is grossly underestimating what it takes to be the President of the United States. Experience will be a huge deciding factor for me when I vote. We do not need a president that has to learn everything as he goes. We've seen enough mistakes by the current president, that I'm not in the mood for another 4 years of constant mis-steps. If Obama gets the democratic nomination, I will vote republican, and I am a registered democrat.

As a canadian it is very interesting watching you go over a process that is way too long and only for the wealthy. cause no money, no candy man!
Stop saying that Hilary is phony and just won because she cried...common I hope you think your people are more intelligent than that!
she won because she is just the best candidate and people remember that before they vote. Way to go N.H. You were not influence BY THE MEDIA THAT IS VERY MUCH ON ONE SIDE AND THAT'S OBAMA'S SIDE. POOR JOURNALISM THAT'S WHAT I THINK. BILL IS RIGHT!
And what's wrong with the Clinton's?? Your economy was at it's best with Bill Clinton...I DON'T GET IT MY FRIEND
Is it the scandal?? my god get over it people..who gives a ...
AMERICA WHAS A BETTER PLACE WITH THE CLINTON'S AND HOPEFULLY YOU WILL REMEMBER BEFORE VOTING..

I agree with George completely. If the Bush administration can be given credit/blame for changing government for the worse with no regard for the country, then why is it farfetched to believe that Obama can change it for the better? Remember folks, the buck stops here (president). Furthermore, I wish people would stop talking about Hillary's 35 years of experience. She has not been an elected official for 35 years. Being first lady doesn't make her anymore qualified than if Nancy Reagan decided to run in '08. One other note that others have pointed out is that you can't claim to have all this experience and be ready to lead from day one, but after a dismal loss in Iowa, SUDDENLY find your voice. Contradictory, at best. If you haven't had your voice for all those 35 years, wouldnt' that make Obama more qualified?

Your news reporting is dreadful. This is the lead sentence of your lead article: "Sen. Hillary Clinton claimed a come-from-behind victory in New Hampshire's Democratic primary late Tuesday." I began watching CNN at 8:01 pm which was, to my knowledge, your first reporting of the vote results (except for the small groups of midnight voters). Hillary was ahead from the start and she never fell behind. Why is her win characterized as a come-from-behind? That is what LSU did against Ohio State.

Maybe the headline should be, "The Pollsters were Dead Wrong."

It amazes me how well the Clinton campaignes know how to tap into people. They KNEW that as stupid as Hillary's staged emotional display and crying would be to some people, that the demographic group they were trying to reach would respond like Pavlov's dogs. That is both admirable and scary at the same time. I think we may chose to keep these people around because they simply entertain us. Watching them is better than anything Vince McMahon and the WWE could possibly think up for their scripts.

McCain is a walking time bomb, just itching to draft our boys for a global empire. The economy will not go into recession. Just hype to get people to spend more money. So spend more money!!! Obama is a good "hope" candidate for us and the rest of the world as long as he gets really sound advices. Junior senators arent stupid and he is about ""WE". He will not lead us to turmoil (Watch CSPAN tapes on him he is the same as he is now). Clinton is a great choice for America but not on foreign policy, most countries won't respect her because of her history all of it and we will further be disrespected from the international community. These words are golden.

I don't care if the tears were fake or real. This is politics, and everything is pretty calculated. Finding voices, refining messages, swapping campaign managers are all ways of saying, "my message isn't resonating, I need to tap a stronger vein". Duly, it is of no great coincidence that as any given candidate captures the popular imagination, other camps are quick to co-opt it. This, to me, is the tragedy of elected office as it exists: campaigns are not about messages, not about beliefs, they are about getting elected and staying elected. Perhaps this a natural evolution of a democracy, where elected office becomes like any other job in the country. To that end, I am less shocked than dismayed that candidates play the game of saying what they think we want to hear, versus saying what it is that they truly believe.

After watching several debates, I can say that Hillary misses the mark for me as her temperment seems incompatible with political progress–the rapidity with which she shouted down Edwards after Edwards tried to disassociate his campaign from Hillary's, followed quickly by her emotional statements about how this is all really personal for her (seems Edwards said that a couple days earlier) appears much to opportunistic to be real. Edwards and Richardson struggle with the "Presidential" factor as, I would not want to send Richardson to speak as my "Head of State", though bet he would be fun to have a beer with, while Edwards is too myopic on the working class struggle which–to be frank–will not accomplish anything, unless we want to be the new France.

That leaves me with Obama from the Dem camp. He is articulate and comes across as capable of leadership. I must admit to being humored by the rabid Clintonites above who harp on the experience factor as, to my mind, the Presidential post is about leadership and the ability to lead / inspire, versus the ability to debate / pass policy. Those who think anyone who has spent any time in Washington doesn't understand the gives and takes of the political process, and use this to talk down Mr. Obama, are fooling themselves. His appeal to Dems, Reps, and Independents tells me he is the most electable of the Dems and, simply, in a year in which the Dems should sweep up Congress and the White House, I would rather have a conciliatory, rational voice than one that comes across as hell-bent on avenging the Bush years. This isn't about yesterday, it's about tomorrow. And Clinton, to my mind, can be beat in a national election because she is too polarizing, she will unite the Reps and a large swath of Independents to mobilize against her and Bill, and even some Dems I know.

I personally cannot stand Hillary Clinton.I don't believe her policies are the right thing for America. If you listen to what she " promises" to deliver,nationalized everything, you will realize that these are the same words the socialists use. I do not want the government that involved in my life. As for her gender, I don't care one iota that she is a woman. I would be more apt to vote for a Margaret Thatcher type than a Hillary Clinton type.

Look for results that will better our/your situation..employment,taxes,healthcare,and the truth..Republicans waste money.destabilize the economy, send jobs overseas and place hard working Americans in the UNEMPLOYMENT office..Think before you speak ill of someone who has done such good for our country.

To everyone who supported Hillary please remember that NH was by NO Means a landside victory....It was a TIE!!! One down but she has several more to go. Do you think she can make it??

Another woman not voting for Dear Hillary!!!!

MN

Ted, I don't like her either. She is just not believeable. She is so untrustworthy. She has taken everything that Obama has said and tried to make it her own. The people of New Hampshire, let's face it, they get it wrong just as much as they get it right. I'm voting for Obama. Hands down. I see no other way. Hillary is just craying wolf, and they fell for it. No mam. No mam.

Clinton is a hard core politician. No words come out of her mouth that has not been discussed in great detail by a huge team of people. If people truly believe that Clinton is about change then you know very little about politics.

Take a look at her policies. They are all BS statements. "Hillary has proposed an Apollo Project-like program dedicated to achieving energy independence" ... how? who? costs? who pays? How does that trickle down to the consumer if the corporations ignore the project? Bush has been making such statement for 7 years, where are the results?

Like all the politicians, they are wishy washy statements with no substance and the American voter is failing for the same stuff time and time again. You want change and yet vote for the same. Pathetic. If you want real change from a candidate who has detailed exactly what he will do, then Ron Paul is the only viable candidate.

Personally, I can't stand Hillary, and she scares me. However, she won, so get over it. We spend all this time calling other candidates names, and calling the current administration unbelievable names. Then we complain when the partisan policitics as usual continues in Washington. We can't be civil, so why should the politicians? We elect them, so one tends to get what one deserves. I know I have posted negaive comments, and have been criticized in return, but can't we respectfully disagree and debate?? For the record, I am mostly Republican, and think someone like McCain might be a good president. Why? He seems like a straight shooter, is honest, and has the experience. More so than the alternatives at least, though is support for what he thinks is right in Iraq is not always popular. Not the best orator, but we need someone who can lead right now. I also happen to think Biden would be a good choice, but he never got the attention. Alas, let's take the country back into a "duty" frame of mind, rather than an "entitlement" frame of mind. If we can't be willing to respect other opinions, how can the servants we send to the capitol? Just a thought.

Here we go again! Isn't it important that we look at a persons accomplishments from their past and present rather than their race,religion or other qualities? Hillary produced CHIP, ADA, balanced the budget with her husband..Do we not remember preventative healthcare? Instead hospitals and insurance company regultors decide when we no longer need treatment?(And many times at the cost of human lives?!?) Do you really want someone in office that isn't going to address the economy, taxes, the environment, US jobs and the betterment of your situation?!? Hillary in 2009!! We need stability, not6 excessive spending!! HILLARY IN 2009!

Well, "THE BEST POLITICAL TEAM ON TV" sure got it wrong in NH. Maybe, now you will know that a poll with a five percentage point error cannot predict an election with a two percentag point difference. Your talking heads need to return to the math class room.

"Phonies FADE FAST," HILLARY

Her fake tears won her NH, but she will not be President because of it. She has become even more divisive with these disingenuous fabrications, accrued more bagage. Sooner than later she'll tear up again.

Brandy? . . . What strikes me odd is that the American people permitted George to walk into Washington and just change everything. And that has been real people! Should we or shouldn't we know that Washington isn't set up so that one person can control the decisions or just make changes as George has?

Playing the game properly perpetuates the same proper game.

"Phonies FADE FAST," HILLARY

Her fake tears won her NH, but she will not be President because of it. She has become even more divisive with these disingenuous fabrications, aaccrued more bagage. Soon than later she'll tear up again.

Thank you New Hampshire for coming to your senses!!

Has anyone noticed that she is now running as "Clinton" and not anymore as "Hillary," as if we're re-electing her huband. Anything she might have done that qualifies her as the "most experienced" candidate is being hidden from the public. I like to think that Senator Clinton has more experience than Obama or Edwards, but there's no public record of decisions, policy development or meetings with key leaders that would indicate that she's the most experienced. I'd just like to know what 35 years of experience really means.

I am disheartened at the close loss of Barak Obama to Hillary Clinton. I believe that the following factors influenced the election:

1) The weather. A large number of senior citizens voted and exit polls showed that they came out for Clinton.

2) The youth. Pundits said that the young people in NH came out in normative numbers, not above average. This hurt Obama.

3) Independents. I think that there was such a strong indication going into the primary election day that Obama was going to win, possibly with double-digit numbers, that Southern NH independent voters, went to the GOP primary to keep Mitt Romney from getting the GOP nomination and voted for McCain. McCain's voters hurt Obama at the last minute.

I do take heart that any of the Democratic candidates would be better than any of the GOP in leading the country.

John
I concur, watch her steal the "can do" line

HILLARY CRIED HERSELF TO A WIN IN NH, WHAT A PITY.

HILLARY CRIED HERSELF TO A WIN IN NH, WHAT A very SAD DAY.

I THOUGTH "BIG GIRLS DON'T CRY"

HOW ARE YOU GOING TO FIGHT OR CONFRONT TERROR IF YOU CRIED YOUR WAY TO BE PRESIDENT

Hillary only won by the skin of her teeth....just wait until she hits the other states...The Obama wave has only just begun....Hillary will be toast....I agree with the post above give her a tissue next time...but VOTE FOR OBAMA....

To Bebeto you think Obama writes is own speeches WRONG. He might deliver them better than most, but he does not write them. Theodore Soresen an old JFK speechwriter works for Obama. Make sure you know what you are talking about before you say it.

brandy-

you can't even spell Hillary...

The geniuses that America is producing...will it ever end. Spawn of Bush.

Hillary will be an excellent president. She is experienced, wise and truly cares about all of the American people. No one has exhibited more grace in the face of unfair personal mean-spirited attacks, pundit pettiness and the hypocrisy of others who claim to be on a high road, but sink to the gutter whenever they think they may pick up a vote. Hillary Clinton lives on the high road. This woman is an example to all of us, men and women alike, of the strength, civility and compassion that made this country great and that we have missed so much in the last eight years.

There was a commentator on CNN this morning who was truly a breath of fresh air. He stated that the pundits continually underestimate the intelligence of voters, that they need to stop acting like they know what will happen and to start reporting what is happening. I could not see his name because of the writing across the screen. I believe he may have been from a New Hampshire newspaper. If anyone else saw this, can you please identify this person? Any network that would hire him would see their rating rise!

Once again, this PROVES that the media cannot simply SHOVE Obama down our throats..... We the VOTERS have the FINAL SAY...... GO CLINTON ALL THE WAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Wake up, Wolf!

Did you notice that all Dems combined got 55% of the total NH vote? Translate this to the general election, when is the last time the Democrats carried this very Republican / Indpendent state? This is the real story.

Less obvious: I initially thought that Hillary's tears would cost her. (Mike Murphy chez Russert, Sunday: "Ed Muskie in a pant-suit."–How did he know that she would weep?) What was the effect of the Independents' choice of ballots? Did they sour on all the Democratic candidates as "soft" and herd into the McCain camp? If so, Obama would have been the victim. Doesn't follow though from the overall huge majority for the combined vote for Democratic candidates.

Brandy spoke with wisdom

All the people clamoring for changes have a naive and immature view of real life facts. The presidency is indeed the highest job in the country, but it doesn't mean dictatorship, or supremacy. You have to deal with hundreds of entrenched powerful people, senators/congressmen/women, not counting the inertia of the gorvernment apparatus. Hoping for the kind of over-night change is just children fantasy from simple minds that do not know better.

Even the best person, with the best intention of change, will get absorbed, modified once he/she get into the job, and will have to slow down, adapt to the system to make it work.

For the people who think Hillary tears were fake, remember that a lot of critics thought it could actually backfire and reflect on chareacter weakness not worthy of the toughest job in the country. So it was just too big a risk to actually fake it. Claiming it fake just reveals your bitterness after her win in NH. If she lost, it would be equally easy for you to flipflop, and claim that here tears were real, and she deserves the loss because of characer weakness. Ahh, the tongue with its flexibility is a wonderful human instrument, isn't it ?

If Senator Clinton becomes the party nominee it will be easy for the republicans to debate her on her zero accomplishment record she has in the Senate and for the state of New York. No riding Bubba’s coat tails don’t make her qualified. If the American people actually took time to fully read the Constitution of the United States, something all democrats in Congress fear, We’d see a huge shift of people not supporting the nanny state the democrats want to put us in plus them driving business out of the USA by taxing us to death. After all I have never got a pay check from a poor person.

When I was a kid, my mama used to scold me saying "you behave or Hillary Clinton will come and get you" An advocate for children? I think not!

Joyce, what a sore loser you are. It's people like you that think Hillary is incapable of any emotion at all. But look in the mirror...you won't like what you see. Hillary is on the way to the nomination and will be our next president.

what a dramatic turn of events.he does not critise any of his rivals in his speeches and he speaks from his heart and the words are form his mind without loooking on any paperbut for hillary,she says things that has been typed for her.america shouldwatch it for another scandalous clinton's presidency

Clinton's victory was a result of women standing up and saying to CNN and the other media outlets, "Stop it!" How many times did CNN play her teary moment? Since when did CNN join forces with YouTube? I think voters, women in particular, were fed up of having a smart, educated women portrayed as some weak, damsel in distress who can't handle playing with the big boys.

Interestingly, CNN also had on these psychologists yesterday saying why women, especially younger women, don't support Clinton. So much for the experts.

It's a pity supposedly suprior nations like america can still be influenced by fake tears from a crying old woman. Next time she cries give her a beating in elections. We want change world over and time for two families exchanging the white house is over. Let's move forward. Obama is the man!

Yeah Hillary morphed pretty well; from a stone into a weeping unstable mess. What a phony. Next time Hillary cries NH, give her a tissue, not an election.

The press and pollsters missed this so badly that they're doing contortions trying to put a positive spin on Hillary in NH. Put it in perspective for a moment. Hillary was supposed to be the clear front runner for the Democrats all along and by a wide margin. She loses in Iowa and then only beats Obama by 2% in NH, equally splitting the available delegates. The press, in their embarassment of making the wrong call, labels this a 'huge win.' Hardly. They need to get back to reporting a neutral election (well, as neutral as they can be...) and not over react to their own poor predictions.

NO HILLARRY
NO SOCIAL MEDS
NO NEW TAXES
NO SOCIAL GOV.
NO GIVE AWAY PROMISES
YOU WILL RUIN THE COUNTRY
& OUR FREEDOMS
IT WILL BE A SAD DAY IF YOU ARE ELECTED

What strikes me odd is that people actually believe that Obama can walk into Washington and just change everything. It's a fantasy people! We should all know better that the government isn't actually set up so that one person can control the decisions or just make all these changes that Obama seems to preach are so logically easy.

Rather pick someone who knows how to play the game properly and make the change: gradual, stable, realistic. This person is Hilary.

Obamarism is the in-thing.Unstopable even if he does not end there-the next round will definitely be his.
Have not heard himdirectly criticising Clinton as she and her husband do-they have no other things to tell the American people.

Hillary is not intelligent-her speaches are written for her-apparently, it looks like more whites are for Obama than blacks for Clinton.

Besides, aggregate-wise, Hillary is trailing (despite all the media coverage at Obama's expense) and the loss of one battle is not the end of the war.

A Clinton has once again duped the citizens of New Hampshire, this time with a feigned show of emotion before a group of women voters. Keep in mind that Senator Clinton and her husband were intensively trained in technology designed specifically to permit its users to manipulate people through tailored communication styles by the pioneer of that technology (called PCM), Dr. Taibi Kahler. See http://www.taibikahlerassociates.com/endorsements.phtml. The timing and setting of Hillary's "tears" were far too politically expedient to be genuine. Let our country not be suckered into another scandalous Clinton presidency!

Go Hillary!

I'm really happy for this surprise victory, though I must say I'm a Hillary supporter who likes Obama as well (I would love them on the same ticket, in either order). She campaigned a little harder in NH and it's nice to see that hard work pay off. If she needed notes, it could be because she was so exhausted! I've seen her speak in person more than once and she didn't need them then.

I've gotten tired of all the nit-picky, misleading coverage of her lately on this website. Your headlines to attract readers frequently take comments out of context. That's irresponsible journalism! And it's time to focus a little more attention on Obama's history. I know a lot about Hillary, not so much about Obama, other than what his campaign wants us to know. If he passes such scrutiny, so much the better.

Also: Does an appreciation of one candidate require a total disdain for the others? I suppose those most likely to take the time to comment would be the most passionate supporters, but still.

Advocate for health care reform? That was 1993 was it not? And what happened?

Again I am a registered voter never voted untill now I have found someone and something to vote for. I do have a ? what was Obama referring to when he stated
"We are the new majority' What majority ?Signed sealed and delivered are these 2 states the voice for all? What about the rest of us? I took a look at Obama he
was ok Edwards was interresting however Clinton has experience change compassion and flexibilty she is aware of the public and their importance she needed to let them know she felt that . She had a problem she fixed it in 2 days 48 hours.That is impressive to me ! You Go Girl !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Obama's change 'different man 'same office same path one man leading all of us men and women down the same path his path his way 'change' he couldn't change his victory speach had he have won to a concession that is unprepared
if I ever heard it the very least they could have changed that song unless he played
it for Clinton's benefit.

Apparently it took 35 years for Hillary to "find her voice." Interesting.

She says whatever her handlers tell her the people want to hear that week. Tonight's speech was so transparent. She's now painting herself as a populist and outright stealing slogans and talking points from the other candidates...but that's her typical m.o.

The rub is...she and Obama won the same amount of delegates tonight. It was a tie, and coupled with Obama's larger victory in Iowa, he's still ahead.

Though I am a liberal democract, I am quite disappointed in the actions and comments of other "so-called" democrats from all camps (be it Obama, Clinton or Edward's). There isn't enough difference between the democratic candidates to justify all the back-stabbing, name calling "Republican-esque" political tactics. Let us please be reminded of what it is we all want, which is control of the White House. If democrats continue to divide one another, then we will only succeed in handing over the White House to another incompetent Republican!

Some people are better at impromptu speeches, while others are not. I do not believe that we are electing someone based on their skills to give impressive impromptu speeches. Skill, knowledge, and a history of NATIONAL change are key. Hillary has brought about NATIONAL change in the realm of healthcare with SCHIP and in the realm of foster care, which helped our most vulnerable population, orphans and disabled children, find permanent homes. She and McCain also initiated legislation on the environment. Hillary developed and passed this legislation from start to finish. Nothing of this nature can be said of any of the other Democratic candidates. Let's vote for a candidate who can deliver on the message and cross party lines! As a native Illinois resident, I can assure you that Obama has not succeeded on delivering change even at a state level. Think about it...God bless and I wish you all the best, because, I know in the end, we're all trying to do what is best for our country.

Let's really put it in perspective... sadly even in the 21st century a minority will never compete below the Mason-Dixie line.

Clinton is too devicive and Obama is not light enough for the red states. And it is an embarrassment that in the land of the free that this fact is stable.

Edwards is the only viable candidate on the democratic side to compete in red states. He polls the best against the top republican candidates. And to really put it in perspective he has achieved a silver and bronze in two northern states while being outspent 2 to 1.

Edwards is a movement, Obama and Hilary are both old style Chicago machine politics with a new face. And those machines are gonna get a wrench thrown in them when they descend down to the south.

Next stop South Carolina... Edwards' home state and the movement continues....

HEYCR CAMPOS CHECK THIS OUT....
THE ONLY REASON OBUMMER IS A BLEEP ON THE RADAR IS BECAUSE HE HUNG ON THE OPRAHS FAT "WALLET" DON'T GIVE THE JUNIOR SENATOR TOO MUCH CREDIT. WITHOUT OPRAH HE WOULD NOT BE WHERE HE IS TODAY... GIVE IT A REST.

Told ya so!

Yes, I said Clinton would come back, but
I did so with decency; pointing out differences and alerting the disparties in Barack's records.

I've always said out here, and still do – that Barack is a nice guy and good public speaker but I will again point out that CLINTON HAS THE EXPERIENCE TO DELIVER THE CHANGE WE NEED – ON DAY ONE! SHE HAS ALREADY PROVEN CHANGE AND WILL CONTINUE TO DO SO.

Unlike hillary-haters, I never stooped to horrible insults; its no longer effective.

...and who wouldn't deliver change after Bush's disaster...

So, I'm so sorry that the media and many messengers prematurely crowned Barack the 'King of the world' It was a mistake I knew they would make.

I'm glad N.H and the rest of the country will view these primaries with depth and substance instead of the just the 'flavor of the week'

BOTTOM LINE . . .

Obama ______________ 37

Clinton _______________ 39

Grassroots, Political Analyst

And the polls said Obama had a double digit lead on Clinton just before the New Hampshire Primaries.
The polls are useless and distracting and should not be published at all.

Great Job Hillary!!

We"re all with you all the way to the White House!

When will Americans learn to wake up and smell the coffee!!!! We voted for George Bush twice and for what? Americans, my fellow Americans, during elections we become puppets of these so called smooth speeches, false promises that our candidates don't keep. We need someone that can change our image, someone that have that experience. Hillary Clinton is the best candidate of them all. Please America, this time, don't be a puppet, let's all vote for Hillary Clinton, and for the Republican side, John McClaine. thank you.

I know the people of NH have spoken. They want FACTS, they want to see what you will DO. This reace is critical. Our country, our future and the future of our children is at stake. The bar is high, the job of president is not a given because of race color or gender. The next person we elect will work with us for change. We know it will be hard work and will not come about by the wave of a magic wand. Thank you NH.

Congratulations to Mrs. Clinton. However I cant help but wonder why CNN kept showing Obamas grandmother and Kenya- probably reminding the voters that he has African roots and sending the message- be careful how you cast your vote. I believe there was no need for that story and that the constant airing of the story affected todays polls. I didnt see any other candidates grandmother being put in the spotlight today or even in the past. I believe that senator Obama has worked very had to be where he is today and he deserves to be given a fair chance to prove himself and show the world that he is indeed a capable leader no matter where he has his origins.

She eeked out a victory due to her ardent supporters (someting to be said for blind loyalty)….and a well timed speech by her husband and former President, that mis-represented what Barak Obama said…right before people headed out to the polls.

Slick, but won't work twice, and will actually work against her campaign once people pick up on it. I hope Obama doesn't use this as an opportunity to illustrate the character of the Clinton campaign, and the depths they'll sink to in order to stay in the election….Why? Because I hope, for once since….Lincoln… that we actually have a candidate in Obama that is above the pettiness of such tactics and can win on his ideas and ability to unite our nation.

That said, the press had better be all over this. It's your job. A former President just lied… again… to keep his wife in a race. It is your obligation to report the facts and undo the damage Bill's done.

Hey Obama supporter he was reading off teleprompter. His speech reminded me of a sermon at a church. He always gets that church tone when he gives a speech. Drives me nuts. MSNBC even said his speech was a little off because of prompter. They all need help now they are so exhausted.

Don't be so happy, Hillary. Obama received the same number of delegates that you did, while you are claiming "victory". Also, he is ahead, when you consider the superdelegates who are supporting him! Too bad, so sad... Go Obama!

obama LOST!!!!!

More voters voted for Clinton, edwards and the other democratic candidates than for Obama by 62%. He got his tail handed to him last night.

obama should just drop out now, but no he has to be the divider.

Now that's signed, sealed, delievered!!!

What happened to the American Democracy? I can’t believe that people in NH voted for Hilary Clinton, and it’s not because she is a woman or because she is the candidate that took more money from those special interest groups, like the pharmaceuticals and the health insurance companies. I can’t believe that no one it’s realizing the consequences of electing Mrs. Clinton, it’s like promoting the beginning of the Royal Ruling Families, in 2 decades the only names on the white house have been Bush and Clinton, we know what happened with the second Bush, the one who stole the election from the American people, and now we are sitting here looking how the second Clinton comes into power. I can’t believe this, what is going to be next? Jeff Bush after Hilary… and then Chelsea Clinton after Jeff? Please American People Wake Up!!! This is the time when we have to take the government in our hands… remember For The People, By the People… not by the Ruling Families!!! Wake UP AMERICA!!

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!.......................

i'm dissappointed New Hampshire.....

OBAMA '08!!!

It strikes me as odd that Hillary claims she found her voice in New Hampshire, yet why is it that three words into her victory speech she has to look down at words written for her. Meanwhile, Obama doesn't have a single note card and speaks from the heart, even when he loses. Hillary is just too scripted – she doesn't really have her own voice at all.

Let's put this in perspective: a black "kid" with supposedly "no experience" and "still wet behind the ears" almost defeats (and practically ties) the 35 year experienced entrenched political institution known as the Clinton machine in a predominantly white conservative northeastern state and she's declared the "winner?" He received an equal number of delegates as Clinton in NH.

More voters voted for Obama, Edwards and the other Democratic candidates than for Clinton by 60%. That is not a victory!

The Obama phenomenon is not a political campaign, it is a movement!

YES WE CAN! YES WE WILL! KEEP HOPE ALIVE!

Vote Hillary for REAL CHANGE!!!!!

My fellow Obama supporters, I understand your frustration and disappointment at the recent news from NH but I think ALL OF US need to stay positive. PLEASE do not fall into the selfish trap of becoming negative against other candidates.

The whole point of Obama's campaign is to erase the hate in politics and to bring the best out of everyone. This goes for the Hilary and Edwards supporters too.

Remember, whoever wins the nomination, lets all support them and not make the same mistake the current administration has made. Let's bury the hatchet with the republicans and work together to improve our economy, save the environment, increase the opportunities for the needy and make the world a better place, with less hatred.

CONGRATULATIONS HILLARY AND TEAM!!!!!! Want real change America vote for a woman as President. For all you Barack supporters, go read Feminism and Faith, there is a quote in there by Sojourner Truth. She was a former black female slave turned human rights activist. She made a statement about when there was talk about freeing the slaves, they would only speak of the black man being freed and Sojourner Truth said something about All this talk being about freeing black men but nothing is mentioned of freeing the black woman. She said if women dont get their rights it will be just as bad for women as it ever was. Listen to Sojourner Truth, she knows.

Women in America have spoken...The "good ole boys" tried to defeat us but just can`t do it. It is our turn to try to bring our country out of the depths of despair from what "stupid white men" have done! Go Hillary Go!

A Clinton has once again duped the citizens of New Hampshire, this time with a feigned show of emotion before a group of women voters. Keep in mind that Senator Clinton and her husband were intensively trained in technology designed specifically to permit its users to manipulate people through tailored communication styles by the pioneer of that technology (called PCM), Dr. Taibe Kahler. See http://www.taibikahlerassociates.com/endorsements.phtml. The timing and setting of Hillary's "tears" were far too politically expedient to be genuine. Let our country not be suckered into another scandalous Clinton presidency!

Taking back America!

For the last eight years, George Bush, Dick Chenney and Carl Rove have hijacked the country from the American People. They have turned a big budget surplus into a huge deficit, and a labor shortage into job shortage! They have forced an unnecessary war on us, leaving the true culprits of 9/11 still at large! Many future generations of American will be paying the price for this war. With Hillary’s leadership, we will take back America!

Hillary for a better America!

With Hillary’s rich experience in public service, she is most qualified to leader us to put America on the right Course!

Hillary is better!

Barak Obama may be a smooth talker, but all he has delivered are empty promises.

this doesnt show what women can do it shows what their husbands can do for them! boy the fake tears!

Congratulations to Hillary, and I look forward to having her as our new President. Maybe we can once again gain some respect in the World, balance the budget once again (as we did under Bill's presidency, plus a huge surplus! ), and bring America back to the bright beacon that it has always been! This night will be a defining moment in History..

Indeed a day to remember. I am glad Hillary won and has brought much relief to me in the NH polls. Continue your hard work and I am sure success will be with you. Your Singapore Supporter!

Eleanor Roosevelt taught us that sometimes silence is the greatest sin

by Mrs. Lyndon Baines (Ladybird) Johnson
Former First Lady, United States Of America
Women can move beyond the struggle for equal status and for material goods to the challenges and opportunities of citizenship. Quality of goals and the achievement of goals which will mean a better life for all. For me, it was the beginning of seeing how politics can bring tangible results. I always hope that the very best of our people will go into politics, and I am sure that some of our best are women. So, I say: "Don't hold back. Don't be shy. Step forward in every way you can to plan boldly, to speak clearly, to offer the leadership which the world needs. Let us today earnestly resolve to build the true foundation for Eleanor Roosevelt's memory–to pluck out prejudice from our lives, to remove fear and hate where it exists, and to create a world unafraid to work out its destiny in peace. Eleanor Roosevelt has already made her own splendid and incomparable contribution to that foundation. Let us go and do likewise, within the measure of our faith and the limits of our ability. Let Eleanor Roosevelt teach Us all how to turn the arts of compassion into the victories of democracy.Eleanor Roosevelt taught us that sometimes silence is the greatest sin.

"Madame President of the United States...it’s an extraordinary thought. We truly are in a momentous time, where a woman’s potential has no limitations," said Streisand. "Hillary Clinton has already proven to a generation of women that there are no limits for success. She is driven by her passion for public service and her belief in the enormous potential of our country. Smart, capable and strong in her convictions, Hillary has transcended the dictates of what is thought to be possible for our time.
"Hillary is a powerful voice for change as we find our country at an important crossroads. Under her leadership, our country will regain its respect within the global community. She will prioritize issues of global climate change, universal health care and rebuilding a strong economy. After 8 long years, the public will once again have faith in their government.
"Another former first lady, Eleanor Roosevelt once wrote, ‘In government, in business, and in the professions there may be a day when women will be looked upon as persons. We are, however, far from that day as yet.’ More than 50 years later 'that day' is now upon us…and Hillary Clinton is ready to shatter through that glass ceiling for all women."

This race was too close for a supposedly "inevitable" Hillary to claim victory over Obama. That is pure spin.

Hillary is probably still crying as they both have the same amount of delegates, Obama and all of his supporters are still the true winners of this one in NH.

The main deviating factor I saw, besides women voters, were there were more Independents voting on the Republican side for McCain. He has a strong standing in NH but I don't think that will be a factor in SC. Again, congrat still to Obama on this one. A 2% difference between him in Clinton in NH and she calls it a comeback. Wow. LOL!!

I am a woman and I do not trust you!

GO HILLARY GO, GO HILLARY GO, GO HILLARY GO….
TELL THE "JUNIOR" SENATOR TO GO POUND SAND.

YOU WERE THE ONLY ONE OF ALL THE CANDIDATES DEM OR REP THAT WAS INVOLVED IN GIVING THIS COUNTRY A SURPLUS…. I DON'T CARE HOW MAD I GET AT MY ACCOUNTANT, I DON'T EVEN LIKE HIM…. BUT HE HAS MADE ME A WEALTHY WOMAN AND I CAN RETIRE.

HILLARY ,GET BUBBA ( our first black president) TO CHIP IN AND HELP WITH THE BOOKS AND GET US BACK ON TRACK GIRL. YOU WERE THERE …YOU EXPERIENCED HOW ITS DONE… DO IT FOR US AGAIN.

Barrack Hussein needs to come back here to Illinois and start voting on real issues and not galivanting around pretending he's presidential material. Oh wait, he didn't do his job before this three ring circus show.

Keep up the good work...
Please keep showing "Snivalry" Clinton as how she really is:

1. Coffee pot toting
2. In a bakery
3. Whining and sniveling that she's "tired"

Is this who we want running the USA?
If she thinks its hard now and she's already tired, how is she going to react when the terrorists are knocking on our front door?
Do we want her to whine and snivel and offer coffee and baked goods to the them in the hopes it will all blow over?
Hilary, I wouldn't be so proud of being the "experienced" First Lady of an Impeached President who brought disgrace to the Oval Office!
You'll get no crybaby "sympathy" vote from me!
Please vote for someone strong enough to run this great country of ours...ANYBODY but Hilary Rodham Clinton.....even BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA who will not say or put his hand over his heart during The Pledge of Allegiance.

Go Hillary! You have my vote from Georgia!!!! It's time for a change ....as a sermon I heard lately, "where are the men"? If it wasn't for the women half the children wouldn't even have a christian foundation and if it wasn't for the woman the "man" wouldn't be here!!!! Continue to show your "heart" and true feelings!!! People love people who genuinely are not afraid to show emotions, their hearts and their true feelings!! God loves a genuine heart and you have truly shown yours ! When my mom was living she would have tears flowing down her face everytime she hear the "National Athem", along with that her prayers were going up for each of the candidates. For some reason, the guys think it's just unreal to believe that a woman could be the President of the United States! We're on a fixed income, age 65 and have our home for sale because we can't afford it. I have to have surgery and must pay $15,000 up front because medicare doesn't cover it. We got it from the equity in our home. We are living in scary times and if something isn't done we will have two classes, the rich and the poor!!! We believe in you Hillary!!! May God bless and watch over you as you go from state to state and may He guide you with your words!!!! In your tense moments go to Psalms 91 – you will be covered under His wings. It's time everyone gets humble and emotional about America, otherwise blood will be shed on our land! I ask God to give you strength and the courage to go forward in the name of our Lord!!!

Dot Kent

My name is Khalifah, I'm a woman, Native American. African American Native Indian decent. Born here in Pensacola, Florida 1952. Parents from Pineapple, Alabama. What happen in New Hampshire is another example of the reversed psychology that was used, with the false emotional tears of Hillary Clinton, her manipulation, her acting and preying on the vulerability on those who voted for her. Whether you're Black or White voters for Hillary Clinton, its time to do what's morally and ethically right! It is time for a change in America and 2008, it will be The White House!
Its time out for riding or driving Ms. Daisy mentally of those who want to keep things the way it's been going, by the underline status quo of America Racism and Hate! It is time for a change in America that will be truly fair to all people of color! Freedom, Justice and Equality! Not for some but for everyone! All the presidents were white! Not for Whites Only!
The Ultimate change for America is to have another people of color to live in The White House! The Clintons are being Greedy! and showing the same mentality of those of the old South! Go to poetry.com, type in my name Khalifah Mohamed and Look at the poem," Obama For President In 2008!:, and "The White House!" that I wrote give me some feedback! It is time for a change, because I am a victim of hate, because of my name and being a muslim woman of the Islam faith. when no laws were broken by me. I'm the modern day Rosa Parks, and what you will read from me on poetry.com comes straight from my mind and heart. Peace Be upon you, Khalifah.

Kind of looks like Evita Peron

"Politics isn't a game"??? A Clinton said that. What a phony.

She will be stopped. And Obama won't resort to tears.

OBAMA '08

YES, INDEED!!! MISTAKE 1: NEVER COUNT A DETERMINED WOMAN OUT! WAY TO GO HILLARY! NOW ON TO THE WHITE HOUSE! CUDOS TO THE VOTERS OF NEW HAMPSHIRE WHO AREN'T DISTRACTED BY GLITTER AND GLITZ!

WE LOVE YOU HILLLARY... DON'T BE AFFRAID TO TELL THE "JUNIOR" SENATOR TO GO POUND SAND.... LET MICHELLE WIPE HIS NOSE FOR HIM.

Barack CAN make a CHANGE. He has changed his opponent already. Hillary has changed her tactic. She even shed a tear for us and NH fell for it. I was not sure whom I would vote for until Hillary changed. She changed because she realized she wasn't winning and copied Barack's campaign plan. I would have respected her more if she would just remained herself...stayed her course. She is a great politician and she is playing the game! The new Hillary is not genuine but it does prove that Barack can CHANGED America. He has made her CHANGE her game plan. (Note to Hillary: We are starter than that. See ya in SC.)

Barack...you are right we have got to begin somewhere. Thanks Barack for requiring Hillary to step up her game.

****A woman in SC who will NOT vote for Hillary****

Also, it's important to note that Clinton and Obama both won the same amount of delegates tonight.

It was essentially a tie.

Hillary has the best message, and the most strength and experience to actualize it. Her speech tonight illustrated her integrity and sincerity, and was not simply about rhetoric. She spoke about the ISSUES, which Obama didn't even mention. Let's go Hill!!!

Uoi had a very unflattering picture of Mrs. Clinton on the main page – with mouth wide open and finger pointing towards the crowd.. is there a more graceful picture available?

There are group of people not happy with the winning of Hillary in NH, the NEOCONSERVATIVES led by Karl Rove. All the neocons wanted Hillary to lose, it didn't happen.

Hillary is the biggest threat against any republican nominee.

Thank you NH, CONGRATULATIONS TO ALL VOTERS AND VOLUNTEERS !

Maybe now the news media will pay attention to Senator Clinton's campaign and quit trying to push Obama. Congrats! Hillary

It looks like playing the crying game at the dinner reception propelled Hillary to the top. However, this is regrettable. If she is bidding to be the first female president, she have to play the "man" game and show a strong character. I don't think that kind of trick will help her in the upcoming states' primairies.

I believe that the CLINTON VICTORY TONIGHT WAS A GREAT VICTORY FOR THE UNITED STATES .HILARY CLINTON IS NOT AN ORDINARY WOMAN AND SHE HAS THE POWER TO MAKE GREAT CHANGES IN THIS COUNTRY. SHE HAS HAD TO BATTLE MANY PROBLEMS IN HER LIFE AND SHE CAME THROUGHTHEM WITH DIGNITY AND A GREAT RESPECT OF MANY WOMAN IN THIS COUNTRY. i BELIEVE IN HER ABILITIETO DO THE THINGS THAT NEED TO BE ACCOMPLISHED IN THIS COUNTRY THAT THE PRECEDING PRESIDENT HAS DAMAGED FOR SO LONG.IT'S TIME TO BRING AMERICA BACK TO IT'S GREATNESS AND I BELIEVE THAT SHE WILL DO IT!!! RIGHT ON HILARY!!

Very happy that Hillary won in New Hampshire! Very smart people in New Hampshire for not handing Obama a quick win without better scrutiny.

Thanks for keeping this race interesting!

YOU GO GIRL !!!!!!!!!!! I am thrilled NH blessed Hillary with a WIN .......now onto the National..............forget the POLLS......Hillary is a winner !

The Independent voters have spoken, we require our candidate to support our concerns, we demmand our candidate to listen to our issues and we difinitely want our candidate to recognize that every voter counts...
Go Equality Go Fairness
Go INDEPENDENTS

HILLARY IS BACK!!! Iowa was a fluke because the caucus-goers got to vote twice when their candidates tanked. Most of those "two-timers" voted for Obama because they wanted to hobble Hillary, the national leader. When Democrats vote one time, Hillary will almost always win. She will definitely be our nominee, and will be the next president, too.

Thank you New Hampshire! You gave us our hope back that there will be a president with the experience to give us the change that our country needs. Go Hillary!

Recreating the Spanish flu? Is this the new bird flu pandemic?
Can influenza be used as a bio weapon? What has been done and what has Clinton and obama done to put a stop to these Programs? The experiments were conducted at a laboratory of the US Department of Agriculture in Athens, Georgia. There is no sound scientific reason to conduct these experiments. Some of the most recent experiments allegedly seeked to test the efficacy of existing antiviral drugs on the 1918 construct – but there is little need for antiviral drugs against the 1918 strain if the 1918 strain would not have been sequenced and recreated in the first place. It should be avoided to create the threats that are allegedly the motivation for the research. A vicious circle is created. "The technologies are in place with reverse genetics to generate any influenza virus we wish." From an arms control perspective it appears to be particularly sensitive if a military research institution embarks on a project that aims at constructing more dangerous pathogens – if Jeffery Taubenberger worked in a Chinese, Russian or Iranian laboratory, his work might well be seen as the "smoking gun" of a bio warfare program.

She WON! Get on board!

What do you think the odds of her being able to win a general election is?

Even against an ancient guy or a smarmy New Yorker I'd say between 10-20%.

Bush got elected solely because independents thought, "This guy seems OK, I wouldn't mind sitting down and having a beer with him."

Who would ever say that about Shrill?

If/when obama loses this nomination he should get out of Washington ASAP and get some exec experience, perhaps as IL govenor. Washington will just ruin him.

He may be done for 8-12 years in terms of the presidency. Just hope his change message still plays then.

Sigh......

ANOTHER article written without declaring Obama is the second coming of Jesus.

My long standing unwavereing support for CNN is making a quick comeback. I had almost turned to the republican riddled FOX broadcast.

Lou Dobbs and Wolf Blitzer are the best !!!!

Wake up, Wolf!

Did you notice that all Dems combined got 55% of the total NH vote? Translate this to the general election, when is the last time the Democrats carried this very Republican / Indpendent state? This is the real story.

Less obvious: I initially thought that Hillary's tears would cost her. What was the effect of the Independents' choice of ballots? Did they sour on all the Democratic candidates as "soft" and herd into the McCain camp? If so, Obama would have been the victim. Doesn't follow from the overall huge majority for the combined vote for Democratic candidates.

Go Hillary! I love you! You are the right answer for this country.

Obama, I love you too. I hope Hillary takes you to the White House with her.

I think Hillary's turn around can be attributed to a perfectly timed and canned sniffle which played perfectly to a female base. It also astounds me that in a country that limits itself to two parties we are looking to limit ourselves to two families, 28 years of Bushes and Clintons, 32 years if she wins. That is appalling to me. Don't get me wrong I think Bill was a great president but change this year needs to be about more that the D or R behind your name.

Clinton boasts a ready to go, day one experience. I'm sorry Miss but Bill Richardson has a better resume than you do. I don't think a resume equal’s leadership, what really matters is the ability to inspire, to challenge and to instill confidence that we, "WE" can be more. Great leadership is what inspires greatness. Obama eloquently summed up the American Spirit as "Yes WE Can", all I hear from Hillary is I, I, I. Obama is truthfully the first Presidential candidate I have ever been inspired by. America – now is the time for change, now is the time for true uniting leadership, now is the time to believe that America can look forward with anticipation not back with reminisce.

Looks like all those extra ballots needed were for Clinton voters! Sorry about that CNN! Better luck next time coronating a President.

GO HILLARY!!!!!

It is very interesting to see how much Obama has changed the campaign messages of both the Clinton and McCain camps. They are now using the message Obama has been using from day one. Why dont the news camps say something about this???? It took Clinton to have an "emotional moment" to sway the female vote in NH. South Carolina....... 1st – Obama, 2nd- Edwards, 3rd- Clinton. If WE want true change WE dont need another Clinton in the WH. For 26 years WE have had 2 families rule the WH.....Bush and Clinton. It is time for REAL change....an Obama/Edwards ticket!!!!

What a relief that she FINALLY found her voice!

Sorry, but I can't warm up to this woman. And her husband – our former president – disgraced himself and our country when he viciously attacked Barack Obama.

He cried that the Obama campaign has been playing "dirty tricks," but I haven't seen any of them, and I'm a political junkie!!

Everyone says this was a terrific victory for Senator Clinton. Two weeks ago, the pundits said she would win NH by 14 to 16 points. Tonight she won by only 2 points.

Obama will win. . .if the people have a heart and have HOPE!!

God given – huh?

playing the religous ticket eh bag?

alot of your words are not in step with what people died for to have our "God given lives or rights

see ya in hell bag

Bravo Hillary!
We love you and we trust you.

It is my belief that the recent coverage on Hillary's "emotional" response to a question that was asked of her, led to her victory tonight.

The media is a very powerful tool that should not be overlooked. I watched the news for over three hours and the news reports only discussed Hillary's breakdown. Obama was not mention once during those three hours. It is my belief that she was "advised" to show emotion which is why she shed "a" tear at some point. A very calculated and effective move on her part.

She "found her own voice"? Gee, you'd think after her "35 years of experience" she'd have found her own political voice by now.

She is so completely transparent. And her fake tears apparently galvanized the female vote.

How quickly we all forget about the 8 years of scandal and turmoil that came out of the Clinton White House, which INCLUDED Hillary. Do we really want to go through this again? (And I say this as a pretty staunch liberal.)

"Experience" means nothing without JUDGMENT and CHARACTER.

OBAMA WHO'S YOUR MAMA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AMEN

Its a clear message to the Republic if we do not nominate huckabee as our nominee Hillary will win in November.Among Republicans theres only one person who will beat Hillary in November this is Huckaboom.I knew before Obama wouldnt last long remember this is Bill back running against us.We need to defeat them.She supports same sex marriage,abortion,stem cell research.If we nominate someone in our party who believes like her we are finished.Huckabee will win by landslide.

Who wrote that headline? Mitt Romney or John McCain?

Can CNN and the other news organizations look more foolish with there flip flop on the day. You called it wrong all week and all day and now you make a big deal of the surprise wins. The pundits are just talking heads with no real knowledge and insight. Stop the hype and report the news and just the news. You cannot tell the American people what to think. Your evening analysis was nothing more than covering up for your lack of insight. Start acting like professionals rather than gossip mongers. What a disappointment

I just would like to ask: is tonight not history for the United States? Is Hillary Clinton, the first First Lady to win elected office, the first First Lady to win relection, now is the first female to win a State Primary? Why is no one on the air speaking about what an historic event this really is for our nation's 232 year history. Someone perhaps can tell me which female candidate has done this before?

Clinton – 9 Delegates
Obama – 9 Delegates

Sounds like a tie rather than a "comeback" to me.
