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.

I know there are better GOP candidates out there, but they are not running. So, yes this year sucks, but I cannot vote for the dems... they are already the majority - I refuse to give them more rope.

Disagree away!

Personally I don't base my friendships / aquaintainces
on political opinions because then I wouldn't be able to talk to anyone!

Same for me! Like a friend of mine is a big supporter of Hillary. Heck, I've even befriended Raider fans before!

Good, I don't want to make enemies over politics. I just want everyone here to remember... Vote your local freaking elections also! The dems are the majority right now and you need to remember this when voting. Oh, and dont watch the media reports... study the elections yourself, don't count on fox if you are a righter.... but Don't count on ABC, CBS, CNN, NBC, etc... if you are a lefty
