Much like in Iowa where turn out was so high. The first three Dem's actully all got more votes then leading Reb's there. To night it looks like NH
will have two Dems with higest count. Does any of this mean a thing??

Maybe. We'll see, but if the dems can mobilize in these relative numbers among a number of states (Ohio, Florida, New Mexico, Nevada, Pennsylvania, Michigan) for the general election, regardless of the candidates, they will be almost impossible to beat.

Will that happen? Who knows.

But so far they're coming out and it didn't even take a homophobic amendment to get them out there.

Strong Dem turnout in what was a Republican stronghold. Surprising to see Hillary pull it off. All the polls were saying Obama. Very telling that Bush has lost New Hampshire for the Republicans.

I don't think there's any question that higher voter turnout is in the Dems favor everywhere. Its the disenfranchised that traditionally blow off voting. They just don't feel like they have as much skin in the game, I guess:shrug:

That was a salient point by kosar that it really only matters in MI, FL, OH, PA and the other swing states, but overall, more voters=better for Dems imo.

Wow Hillary and Obama buried Mc Cain. Well one could say if all Reb's votes went to Mc Cain. Then he beats them both. But that won"t added up either. We still have Edwards votes.
