Let's frame this differently, Hillary tied in Iowa, is losing in New Hampshire, and is tied nationally to a 74 year old Jewish guy calling himself a socialist.
Hillary can't even stave off Bernie successfully. If I'm a Republican I want to go up against Hillary, she's vulnerable.
A Bernie v. Republican election would pit Boomers v Millenials and would excite people to vote. Clinton? Literally nobody actually WANTS her, some have just accepted her as either an inevitability of as the first female president. As we learned today, women who don't vote are going to H***.

Stop listening to Glenn Beck, he is off his meds and hates Trump. Beck trashes more Trump than Hillary on his radio show every day, that's how stupid Beck is.
How being against Romney's self deportation joke of a plan is all of a sudden for amnesty?
that's like asking a LAW BREAKER to volunteer to turn himself in the court house.
Trump being against the self deportation plan of Romney is correct.............that's like saying, stay if you want, leave if you want.....Romney wasn't going to enforce the laws.
and Romney was an A HOLE to immigrants because his plan didn't get them out of the shadows. You have to force them out of the shadows and make them enter this country the legal way if they want to really be here.
The debates make me not like or trust any of them -- too confusing, too negative, candidates act one way then act totally different at another debate. Too many have flip flopped on major policies. I find it hard to trust any of them anymore. Ugh....this seems like especially grueling election season.
I wish Carly had made it on.
For me - Hillary is toxic - and a cancer that has to be removed. She has no interest in the American people per se - but is running only to fulfill her own ego and most of us see that - who aren't drinking the kool-aid. She is only a threat to the Republicans because too many democrats have lost their minds, ethics and morals and would still vote for her despite losing so much over the past 7 years due to Obama's reign.
Sanders - though a nice guy, will not be able to convince enough older people that his policies will help America. It's easy to convince kids - not paying bills - that the gov't should sponsor all these free programs - they won't feel the same in a few years when they start working and having to pay for someone else's freebies as most by then will have graduated college and won't be entitled to the freebies. He'll never convince enough older people, who were raised that you work hard and achieve your dreams - that they should be paying for someone else's freebies when they are having a hard time paying bills and may have to work for years longer than they planned. To the Republicans - Sanders is not a threat.
Trump destroyed the handpicked audience of Establishment shills for "Business-as-usual" (open borders, offshoring jobs, destroying the middle and working class in this country).
Trump also destroyed Cruz for his underhanded tactics against Carson.
Bush yet again tried to take down Trump and failed.
The losers: # 5 Cruz (hurt by his vote stealing), # 6 Carson (too soft-spoken), # 7 Rubio (saying "Obama knows what he's doing" five times when once would have been enough.)
How will the NH primary play out?
Trump, Christie, Bush, Kasich, and Carson will do better than they did in Iowa.
Cruz and Rubio will do worse.
All of the above candidates will remain competitive for the time being. I don't see any of them dropping out just yet.
As for the overall primary, Cruz, Kasich and Carson will drop out (Cruz is too conservative/ religious, Kasich is too liberal, Carson is too soft-spoken.)
That leaves Trump, Rubio, Bush and Christie.
One of those four will be the nominee.
I hope it's not the Bubble Boy Rubio. Or open-borders Bush.
Just what we need: another silver-tongued pretty boy with no experience like Obama, or another Bush.

To answer random questions posted in these 24 pages...
1. Yes, NH was watching this debate
2. NH is the least religious state in the country. Cruz had to tone down his preacher act, which he did. But he still won't finish top three.
3. Kasich won, Rubio lost.
4. I predict top three will be Trump, Kasich, and Bush on Tuesday.
