If Democrats nominate Obama and this holds up, Carol Shea-Porter will likely blow Jeb Bradley out of the water.

It's easier to poll a G/E with two well-known candidates than a primary with 5 candidates. And the lead is well outside the MOE.

McCain only pulling 64% of Republicans against Obama? He sure seems to have gotten popular among Republicans...

Interestingly, in the Potomac primaries, Obama actually won those looking for electability 2-to-1.

So much for the theory that winning New Hampshire in the primary makes you the strongest candidate there in the general.

NH voters are already having buyers remorse with Clinton. They know a lot more about Obama now than they at the time of the primary.

Thanks to Rasmussen polls, New Hampshire has joined Nevada in the list of states that used to matter, but don't any more.
