Michelle and Barack Obama walked into the gym of Nashua South High School waving and greeting those along their path. Michelle gave her man a hug of encouragement before she walked off stage.

 

Barack opened by first congratulating Clinton for fighting the good fight and of course, her victory. The audience was silent until some lone voices yelled out words of encouragement to the senator.

I'm sure Obama appreciated those loud calls but the rest of his speech indicated that this setback is only slight. Obama's words riled up the audience. His main message tonight: "Yes we can!"

He thanked the young voters and independents and all those who made it to the polls today in record numbers.

 He cited historical eras of the nation's past that had to use the same words he encouraged the crowd to say.... "Yes we can." The immigrants to America who battled the wilderness West, the slaves and abolitionists, the women who fought for their rights, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. and those who fight for civil rights.

 True to his campaign, Obama left his audience with a new sense of hope.

 Lisa and I talked with young audience members after the event. (Hopefully these videos will load and post.) The young men we spoke with said that they are still supportive of Obama's campaign and will support him as he moves on to South Carolina, the first primary in the South.

The final poll results show Clinton won by two percentage points over Obama and McCain won by five percentage points over Romney. Giuliani resulted in 9 percent support and Ron Paul at 8 percent support. Giuliani may have been absent in New Hampshire, but he is expected to win in other states. All this to say, the nomination is still up in the air on both sides of the political parties, tonight.

HILLARY NOT ONLY WOMAN IN ARIZONA
PRESIDENTIAL PRIMARY!!

That's right. This is the most under-reported story of the Primary season.

Arizona has produced a slew of candidates for the highest office in the nation. That's right, more candidates to choose from. While the country and its political pundits are focused on tiny East Coast states, some ten Republicans and fifteen new Democratic candidates will appear in the Arizona Primary ballot this February. An effort sponsored by The Tucson Weekly, an Arizona alternative newspaper, has opened the gates for a stable of dark-horse candidates.

As with all politics the sparks are already flying. Candidate Sean "CF" Murphy responds to a political ad filed by Democratic candidate Doctress Neutopia in which she desecrates the American flag by cutting a hole in it. Follow the antics of America's grass-roots candidates by tuning in to the campaigns blog.

Emotions aside - have you actually thought about the lack of qualifications offered from any Democrat? None of them have any skills or history to offer. Hillary can brag about stealing silverware in 2000, Obama can tell us he got coffee for his committee .

It won't be long 'til New Hampshire will be only a blip on the radar screen. They're definitely not the pulse of the country, be thankful for that.

New Hampshire District Admits Ron Paul Votes Not Counted

Sutton township reported Congressman had zero votes, actual number was 31

The head clerk of the New Hampshire town of Sutton has been forced to admit that Ron Paul received 31 votes yet when the final amount was transferred to a summary sheet and sent out to the media, the total was listed as zero. The fiasco throws the entire primary into doubt and could lead to a re-count.

As we reported earlier today, an entire family voted for Ron Paul in Sutton, yet when the voting map on the Politico website was posted, the total votes for Ron Paul were zero.

Vote fraud expert Bev Harris contacted the head clerk in Sutton, Jennifer Call, who was forced to admit that the 31 votes Ron Paul received were completely omitted from the final report sheet, claiming "human error" was responsible for the mistake.

Two or three votes not counted could be a plausible mistake - but 31 votes for one candidate?

THE GUY IN CHARGE OF PREMIER IS A CONVICTED COCAINE TRAFFICKER who tallies up the final results.

JEFFERY DEAN is the guy

81% of New Hampshire ballots are counted in secret by a private corporation named Diebold Election Systems (now known as “Premier”).

The elections run on these machines are programmed by one company, LHS Associates, based in Methuen, MA. We know nothing about the people programming these machines, and we know even less about LHS Associates. We know even less about the secret vote counting software used to tabulate 81% of our ballots. People like to say “but we use paper ballots! They can always be counted by hand!”

a Democratic Candidate for Secretary of State in Washington, along with Black Box Voting author, Bev Harris, have dug up some new "dirt" on Diebold. According to allegations made at press conference yesterday in Seattle, Diebold is apparently full of convicted felons. This AP story details some of the allegations levied. During the press conference it came out that, Jeffery Dean, a current executive with Diebold was previously convicted of thefts that were hidden through a

"cover-up [that] involved a high degree of sophistication and planning in the use and alteration of records in the computerized accounting system that defendant maintained for the victim, and the defendant used his position of trust and fiduciary responsibility as a computer systems and accounting consultant for the victim to facilitate the commission of the offenses."

Last month the Secretary of State of California had a meeting and ordered Diebold to cooperate with, and to pay for an audit of their installed hardware/firmware/software versions statewide. Today partial results of that audit were released, and it was a doozie...

- As soon as people went public with the fact that their votes in Sutton had not been counted, other districts where Paul had supposedly received zero votes, such as Greenville, suddenly changed their final tallies and attributed votes to the Congressman.

Total fraud and FOX isnt talking about it, I wonder why?

The can do what Candidate? Ruin the country? It comes down to this. Who do you think should spend your money? You or the Government? If you believe the government should then continue to vote Democrat. Which means prepare to bend over and take it in the you know what. Cause baby, your taxes are going to go up. Of course those of you that don't think your paying enough taxes. You are more than welcome to pay extra when you are filling your income taxes this year.

And forget your property rights, cause in a Democratic Administration, government has the rights. Bill of Rights according to Democrats limits your rights, not Governments. Also, kiss your gun rights good bye. You'll just have to be a victim and like it. And well, forget about prosecuting the guy the killed you for federal fireams violations too. He might go to jail for killing ya but won't get prosected for other which means a lighter sentence.

You might also kiss your job good bye. Cause a Democratic Administration will make it harder for business to prosper and grow. They'll be taxed to death too. Especailly, small businesses.

Here comes the Estate-Tax back. Yep, not only will you get taxed, double taxed, and triple taxed for working hard and making a profit throughout your life, but they'll reach into your grave and take money out of your pocket that should have gone to your family.

Obama?
Friggin Scary stuff.
It's going to be a Clinton/Obama ticket, which is even scarier, but I doubt we can stop it. The end is near and it'll be ushered in by the greed of this nation, both corporate and political.

Ron Paul cares about Liberty and the American people. He's the only candidate that stands out. ALL of the others are just too similar. They attack and backbite each other. Ron Paul just sticks to the facts; our civil liberties are eroding at an alarming rate. According to the U.S. President and the IRS (a private company); our rights according to the Constitution are irrelevant. The Patriot Act and the Real I.D. Act rob us of our free rights. There exists NO law requiring citizens to pay income tax on their wages. The Federal Reserve, our central bank, fosters runaway debt by increasing the money supply — making each dollar in your pocket worth less (about 4 cents). The Federal Reserve is a private bank run by unelected officials who are not required to be open or accountable to “We the people”. Ron Paul wants to do away with the IRS and the Federal Reserve. No more taxes!!! Returning to the Gold Standard will strengthen the Dollar. He will also end the war in Iraq (which he opposed from the beginning). Ron Paul is good for America. Choosing between the other candidates is like trying to choose between the lesser of two evils. I choose NO EVIL, I choose Ron Paul. http://www.ronpaul2008.com/

It's a great time to be a student journalist. Keep up with the following links as well! http://www.youtube.com/pr
