Applesauce
Pat Cunningham offers an unabashedly liberal perspective on national politics. A note of caution: The language gets a litttle salty on some of the sites to which this blog links. So, don’t say you weren’t warned. By the way, this blog’s name is inspired by the Will Rogers quote, “All politics is applesauce.”

Here are your N.H. primary results

Hey, why wait until tonight to find out how the Granite State elections turned out?

Here’s the order of finish:

Republicans

  • John McCain

  • Mitt Romney

  • Ron Paul

  • Mike Huckabee

  • Rudy Giuliani

Democrats

  • Barack Obama

  • John Edwards

  • Hillary Clinton

  • Bill Richardson

  • Dennis Kucinich

The riskiest predictions, if you haven’t noticed, are those that peg Clinton and Paul for third place in their respective primaries.

If I’m right about Clinton,  she’s toast.  Even if she finishes second, she faces tough sledding and will have to win Florida to retain viability going into Super Duper Tuesday.

Giuliani, too, has to win in Florida or his cause is hopeless.

Fred Thompson will be out of the race by the weekend.

UPDATE: The first returns in the New Hampshire primaries are in from the tiny hamlet of Dixville Notch, and Barack Obama has as many votes as all of the Republican candidates put together:

Democrats
Senator Barack Obama 7
John Edwards - 2
Gov. Bill Richardson - 1
Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton - 0

Republicans
Senator John McCain - 4
Mitt Romney - 2
Rudolph Giuliani - 1
Fred Thompson - 0
Ron Paul - 0

    That’s what they said to Harry Truman, which didn’t make any sense because his name wasn’t Pat.
