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.

And just so you understand where I coming from, I believe it's better to have a forum where the majority of people get along.
That said, I'm not one of those people who needs everyone to love or even like me; I don't roll like that.
I've got a few regular people here that I go back and forth with about Chiefs Football and a few other things.
And that's good enough for me.

In all fairness, claiming to be right all the time is a form of provocation. Maybe indirect provocation, but...
FAIL!
Some folks enjoy that thread. I stay out of it, for the most part, because there are alot of toes that can be stepped on in there. And many of those toes can be very very sensitive.
It is a good way to make some enemies. For those who are interested in such things.![]()
I say, if you can't handle it, then you should probably just stay out of there.
If you do go in there, and someone really p***es you off, then...."I told you so."![]()
Didn't you just post in there? Like two minutes ago?
Seriously. Noone makes you do that. If you don't like it. Just leave it alone.
I see posts on this forum about beer, cigarettes, parenthood, natural disasters, college football, baseball, chess, foods, construction, jokes... The list goes on and on. While I am at a Chiefs forum, I sometimes feel the desire to talk about other issues with Chiefs fans.
Sometimes, topics that aren't relative to The Chiefs are gonna come up, no matter how hard we try to avoid them. This way, we have a place to take the really touchy subjects.
It stays.![]()
