He runs on Dunkin


And since everyone makes their voting decisions based on 30-second photo ops and soundbites, I'm surprised this wasn't enough to bump him those extra 3 or 4 points. Hillary's small trip to Emotionsville won out.

Actually what I think really happened is that New Hampshirites can't be stupid enough to be fooled by a few seconds of almost crying, or change their votes just to spite the polls and the media. I think New Hampshire happened exactly as it was supposed to, unfazed by Iowa.

And the media is still crazy. A three-point lead isn't exactly a stunning victory.

Amen Sister! That is exactly what I was thinking. Plus, it is only one state. I am getting tired that the primary seems to be "over" by the time NH votes.

Huckabee was on Colbert this week. It was awesome. Actually better than that was Colbert's dance performance in the intro. How many hours of Ellen do you think he watched to get that dance down?
