"...with a very full heart"

Hillary Clinton comes back in New Hampshire from a defeat in Iowa just a week ago.

Hillary Clinton wins 39% of the vote (with 95% of the total number of precincts tallied). Barack Obama = 36%. What a comeback! Astoundingly surprising when even political analysts say that she was not supposed to get that much support here as it was supposed to happen in Iowa. Bottom line, do not believe the polls, nor the pollsters for that matter. Here is Mrs. Clinton in her victory speech in New Hamshire, a couple of hours ago.


Now, maybe what contributed for the New Hampshire voters, especially women, to coem to Hillary's rescue was what transpired in the last debate hosted by Charlie Gibson of ABC News on saturday January the 5th and re-broadcast in CNN the next day.
Here's an excerpt:


Whatever the reason, I'm staying neutral, because my horse is just not getting the support he deserves from the hispanic population, yes, my first choice has been Bill Richardson, Governor of New Mexico, my second being Hillary Clinton. Anyway, let's see what develops in South Carolina, Nevada and California.
