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.

Republican John McCain also nabbed a major comeback victory, putting him solidly back in his party's nomination race.
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.

Taxing livelihood over luxury increases the severity of poverty.

And free trade creates plenty of jobs...... In other countries.

I would like to see an end to that. I would like to see promising a very tough four years as we fix the problem, instead of promising tax breaks or miracles.

As would I but it's not going to happen anytime soon. It's why I really don't have a inerest in poltics at all. It's the same old same old. Every 4 years 2 guys run making a promise that they can fix everything they fail anther guy comes along saying this guy failed makes promises that will fail and so on and so on.

You would think that both parties would have learned that lesson by now. Promising the moon and delivering a rock does nothing more than thin the bases on both ends of the spectrum and broaden the discontented middle undecided.

I'm tired of this huge, unaccountable, and bankrupt government imposing more and more will over it's people. I am fully capable of thinking and doing for myself - thank you. And why do we waste huge amounts of tax dollars on these federal agencies? Dept of Agriculture 95 BILLION/yr. Are you serious? They don't grow a damn thing! This waste needs to go! The only agency the fed should govern is the DOD. The rest of this crap can be given back to the states where there is at least a shot at some fiscal responsibility. I know - too radical - but you get my drift. Let's add a flat tax and abolish the IRS while were at it.
NOBAMA 2012.

As a Chiefs fan you would think that I would be used to this feeling. Now I hope that the Mayans have it right and the world really does come to an end on December 21st.
