"There's an old saying in politics that goes, "There are two tickets out of New Hampshire." It basically means that if you don't finish in the top two in the Granite State, you're through. This is because the media attention, the money men, and the establishment will coalesce around the two top vote-getters that come out of NH, leaving all the others with nothing. From what I've heard about New Hampshire voters, it's basically a foregone conclusion that Rudy and McCain will take the top two spots up there."


I agree, McCain will definitley be either one or two in New Hampshire if he decides to run, but Im not so sure about Giuliani (im thinking he isnt going to run anyway.)  How do you think he would fair in New Hampshire if he decides to run? 

Regardless, do you think this statement holds any merrit?  What are your thoughts on the top 2 slots in New Hampshire being the only ones that matter etc...?

With Giuliani's gun history, the NRA would make him a target. He wouldn't get out of New Hampshire.

I'd pretty much welcome a moderate like Giuliani sinking without trace in New Hampshire, the further the GOP swings to the right the better
