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.

Crap.

I also looked into your link,http://americanactionforum.org, and it is also so bias, right side of the spectrum here. So yea, another poll that is flawed. Guess the only poll we can really rely on is the actual votes the bills have gotten, which is that the ACA did passed on and the other, even though some were better than the ACA, did not. All I can say is that the Republicans have to get more members into Congress and/or as President. Then the ACA can be changed or voided out completely. Being around with many independents as myself, this may be a lot harder than with this shutdown.

with this shut down Obama has lost almost a million workers their jobs. and he could care less. IMO he's sunk so low an ant can piss on him. his goal, and that idiot Reid is to make us suffer

BUCHANAN: The sadistic strategy of Obama and Reid

In the showdown over the shutdown of the U.S. government, the Obamaites tipped their hand yesterday as what their strategy is. Taking a page out of Saul Alinsky’s “Rules for Radicals,” the plan is to maximize the people’s pain — to maximize the political damage to the enemy, the Republican Party. link: - See more at: http://rare.us/story/buchanan-the-sa....kfbpDUzH.dpuf

Reid: 'Why Would We Want to' Help One Child With Cancer ??

Reid is in for a world of trouble from his opponents for comments he made today. He ruled out passing a small funding bill that would help "one child with cancer." His words are certain to be blasted by conservatives as a sign of utter callousness, although Reid would probably say he is taking a stand for the greater good.

Here's how it went down.



their now so low as to stop cancer treatment for our children. my hatred of this dictator and his socialist regime has now reached a new high. think of me as you will. as a former Veteran I am in favor of a civil war and over throw of this gang of terrorists and thieves. Democrats are far more dangerous to us than Islamic terrorist. they are home grown and demand you and live under socialism, which I and millions of American fought against and died.

...And the thing is that the House has every right to pass the budget one item at a time just like they're doing which is the historically the proper why to do it rather than everything all at once in one large omnibus.

[mejohnm]

Guess this shutdown will become the longest in history.

[mejohnm]

Oh maybe not... I just read how Republican Susan Collins has a good idea. She calls for a repeal of the medical device tax imposed by Obamacare, which a lot dislike on both sides of the spectrum.

Anyway, time to leave the politics for the rest of the day and to enjoy todays game. good luck Chiefs!

Well most anything is possible, but the Democrats have indicated that they will not negotiate any form of compromise with the Republicans. The Republicans have bent over backwards and moved three or four separate times in their position regarding Obamacare in order to compromise and garnish the votes necessary to reopen the Government. The repeated mantra from Obama and the Democrats is "No!" ...And, it's the Republicans who are being dogmatic???

[mejohnm]

Well , we cannot say all of both parties. This tax is something which many Dems are against.

Touche and I will concede that point, but the Democrats are following the Presidents lead on this which is getting us no where.

[mejohnm]

And I will concede to that point too. Sad two people can come out with agreements and they cannot. It is their jobs, not ours.
