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'm still pretty shocked that Texas allows any body off the street watch an execution.

I think the death penalty would be more of a deterrent if it had to happen in a really painful way. None of this legal injection crap. How about getting eaten alive by pigs, or have all your skin removed and then tied down ina pile of ants. Slowly saw someones head off. Then maybe people won't mess around. And it would give them a job if the applied so they could put their special talents to use. Its about outlets people all about outlets.

When I buy my private island and start my own country, you're going to be hired as public executioner.
