    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 can't imagine anyone ever getting bored with that job and goofing about with other calls.

    I am a conservative (not a Republican)...I do like small government. Every time the federal government tries to solve a problem outside its domain, we end up with 2 or 3 new problems. The federal government should stick to security, immigration and military. Everything else should be as it was designed a STATE or LOCAL government issue. The design of the founding fathers creating a united republic of individual states was largely a check and balance on "big government" which most of them had fled from back in England. The idea is that if each state can govern itself within the foundation of the Union, then the idea of say "social programs" could fly in California, and if you don't like paying for it, you can head to Nevada, or Arizona. Conversely if you feel that it is the "right thing for the government to do" then you flee to California. However when the Federal Government started getting into these types of issues back in the early 1900s (largely FDRs New Deal era in the 30s) the option to protest such concepts became minimized.

    I'm all for state governments having the right to create welfare programs, or retirement programs, disability programs, subsidized education, etc., etc. However when the federal government steps into this arena, not only do they historically mismanage funds and run inefficient programs, but they also over extend the budget and either run up national debt, or worse they increase taxes and stiffle the economy.

    Nor do I. So maybe we should put it on a voluntary basis? I am sure that all terrorists would volunteer immediately. (I realize that you continued on about not agreeing with the principles of it.)

    As for the rest of the post, I agree. And add that the federal government should play the part of a "parent", oversseing the state programs. Helping to ensure that states aren't making laws that infringe upoin the freedoms of any Americans.

    Rep added.

    It is, but, much like that cop w/the skateboarding kids, there is nothing that excuses those actions.
