Hillary Clinton won the New Hampshire primary yesterday after an eight point loss to Barack Obama in Iowa, earning her the all-ready-used moniker of the Democratic primaries ‘comeback kid’ (See: Bill Clinton, 1992). Letting her eyes glaze over with patriotic tears in front of supporters and a few strategic cameras just might have given Clinton the boost she needed. ‘The Kid’ better watch out next week, though. Obama’s allusion to Kennedy’s famous inaugural address in his New Hampshire concession speech might swing the current of emotionality his way. Remember Hillary, it’s not what winning the primaries will do for you, but what you can do to win the primaries.
