There is an old saying in sports that a seven-game series isn't really contested until the home team loses a game. I guess that's not the perfect metaphor--since none of the candidates is at home in New Hampshire--but in this case, the primary season isn't really contested until the front runner loses.
Now we have a race.
Like many, I expected that the game would nearly be over tonight. With the expected big Obama victory, the question going into tonight was whether or not Hillary would even survive until the February primaries. Well, now it looks like not only will she survive, but she'll be at least even with Obama.
This election just keeps getting more and more interesting.
