I saw them both speak today, Clinton in Nashua, Obama in Salem. Each was impressive. Hillary drew a large crowd to the same high school gym where Obama had drawn a horde the day before (I’ll leave it to others to argue over whose crowd was bigger and whose had more actual New Hampshire residents). She spoke well, was pointed at times but …

This is the Hillary campaign’s latest shot across Obama’s bow: An “apparent violation” of New Hampshire election law. Among other things, “The call does not identify its sponsor — the Obama campaign — for 38 seconds. State law requires the sponsor to be named within 30 seconds.”

The bill of particulars after the jump.

UPDATE, FROM …

Nancy and I went our separate ways this morning, but I ran into her as we were waiting for an Obama rally to begin here in Derry. She went to a Hillary Clinton event this morning at the same Nashua high school that Obama packed yesterday–and found another huge crowd. She also came across a California man named Richard Bonati, visiting …

A rep from the Romney campaign called me yesterday to point out that Romney’s not the only one attacking another candidate. He cited McCain’s web ads in particular but also said the attacks were coming from surrogates. It’s true that McCain’s jabs at Romney are not getting the same coverage as Romney’s jabs at McCain. (Even the liberal …

Here’s one thing you need to know about John McCain. He’s always been the coolest kid in school. He was the brat who racked up demerits at the Naval Academy. He was the hot dog pilot who went back to the skies weeks after almost dying in a fire on the U.S.S. Forrestal. His first wife was a model. His second wife was a rich girl, 17 years …

This may be the moment we will look back on and say “that’s when she lost.”

Huckabee just said the way to obtain energy independence is to offer a million billion* dollar prize to the first person to invent a car that can get 100 mpg. Between that and his gimmicky “fair tax” idea, most of his policies sound less like policies and more like game shows.

*ONE billlliiiiiiionnnnn dollars. Thanks for the correx.

Fred just came to McCain’s defense and tweaked Romney for having changed positions on immigration, and then Rudy piled on on Mitt as well (arguing that the program both he and McCain have endorsed is “not amnesty”). I’ve long heard from other campaigns that Romney is the only candidate that is personally disliked by the other candidates, …

CW for months has been that independents will abandon Republicans (i.e., McCain) for the Democrats (i.e., Obama) and may not match up with, you know, facts on the ground. From the latest UNH poll, taken during and after the Iowa caucuses:

Undeclared voters, often referred to as Independents, can vote in either the Democratic or
