Hillary Clinton and and John McCain win the primary in New Hampshire. What does this mean for the race ahead.
Democrats:
It is a two person race between Hillary and Obama. John Edwards will remain in until he can cut the best deal for himself -- maybe another run for VP. This race should be done by February 6.
Republicans.
Another Romney defeat -- but still a respectable showing. He remains in for now, hoping for success in South Carolina and Super Tuesday.
McCain is alive -- but how strong is his candidacy? Do his negatives with many of us conservatives outweigh his positives?
Huckabee shows his weakness as a 50 state candidate. Not many evangelicals in New Hampshire, so his showing was somewhat weak. Can he succeed in South Carolina and derail Romney and McCain?
Rudy -- will Florida and Super Tuesday be too late for him, given his weakness in South Carolina?
Thompson -- time to say goodnight, Fred, though I wish it wasn't.
I think we are realistically down to only three significant candidates -- Romney, McCain, and Huckabee.
