Crap.Clinton, McCain emerge as comeback winners in New Hampshire primary
WASHINGTON - Democrat Hillary Clinton pulled off an unexpected narrow victory in New Hampshire on Tuesday, dramatically rescuing her bid for the White House in a tense battle with Barack Obama.
Clinton, who's fighting to become the first woman in the Oval Office, mounted a surprisingly strong showing after bracing for a second defeat following her devastating third-place showing in Iowa.

While Obama, vying to make history as the first black U.S. president, scored big among independents and voters between 18 and 24, Clinton attracted lower-income voters and seniors and did best among voters citing the economy as their top concern.
But a big factor for Clinton was women voters, who had gone over to Obama in large numbers in Iowa. Nearly half in New Hampshire were once again supporting her, while Obama got only a third.

Just what Kansas needed...
Automatic Firearms Bill Passes Kansas House
(AP) - Individuals could own machine guns, other fully automatic firearms, sawed-off shotguns and silencers under a bill the House has passed.
The vote Friday was 105-18.
The measure is the House's version of a Senate-passed bill making it a felony to deface or remove serial numbers or other identifying marks on a firearm.
A House committee wanted to rewrite a state law limiting the possession of silencers, sawed-off shotguns and automatic weapons.
In December, the attorney general had issued a legal opinion saying part of the law is so restrictive that only law enforcement agencies can possess silencers - meaning no dealer can have them in Kansas, even to deliver to those agencies.
In amending the Senate bill, the House committee decided to make it legal for individuals to own such guns. But they would still have to comply with federal laws requiring background checks.
The House's change will become an issue when the two chambers negotiate over the final version of the bill.

THAT quarterback is NOT a Pro Bowl quarterback. Never was and never will be.
I am in 100% agreement with you Guru.
Although I still have reservations about the laws concerning background checks for hand gun owners, I don't have a problem with people owning rifles and shotguns for sport as they are generally not concealable.
What Kansas has done though is ridiculous.
