WHY NEW HAMPSHIRE PRIMARIES ARE SO UNIQUE

January 2, 2008 One day after celebrating the new year the campaign to elect John McCain is running at full stride hitting each step with a constant pace that may just carry him into the front of the pack. The 8th ward of the city of Nashua is the place to be . A local member of the county steering committee plans a party for the county republicans as a small get together of neighbors and friends and some elected officials . The highlight of the night is a visit from the Connecticut senator who has been a loyal supporter of john McCain for years. Senator Lieberman arrived with a small security force and an aid de camp in tow ,to speak to this small enclave of very dedicated supporters mixed with some neighborhood friends. The evening could not have been more pleasant the house was warm and charming the food impeccably prepared mixed with a New England holiday atmosphere it was just amazing . The fact that this even happens in this day and age of mass media . The fact that you throw a party and a senator from the other party shows up to support your candidate is just out of the ordinary.
