While the outcome of the New Hampshire primary was consistent with my "prediction" of the final outcome of the entire process, I admit to be sad that "my man" lost. It appears that the undecided went more for Clinton as well as women, in general. If the results of Manchester and Nashua could have been reversed, Obama may have made it.
At any rate, there is now more politics to entertain us. The winter is terribly long (apart from this current interlude) and it is great to have some political theater to entertain us.
More importantly, it will give Obama a chance to deal more specifically with some of the goals he wants to achieve. That will be good for him and, if enough support those actions, then he more than like will win.
The conundrum for the Democratic candidates is how to portray their differences without being too personal. And yet, there are minimal differences in positions among the three top candidates. The major differences are personal! It really is a bona fide conundrum!
