New Hampshire Primary

A little mildly entertaining early January theater for your political pleasure.

 

Predictions? I'd go trendy with Obama and McCain.

 

Relevance to the nomination? I dunno. Maybe check with Paul Tsongas (or at least his Mrs.), Gary Hart, Pat Buchanan, and Oh! John McCain.

 

Actually, the NH primary as an indicator for the party's nomination is 50% accurate for the Democrats in contested races since 1952 and and 64% for Republicans in contested races since 1948. Enjoy the show.
