Democrats had an unbelievable turnout of 236,000. Republicans turned out about 114,000.
And I think I heard that Obama beat Hillary 41% to 17% among Independents. So when we start looking for someone to beat Obama, it might be good to find someone who can appeal to those voters. (McCain may not have many Independent voters who will vote in the GOP primary in NH. Could be a problem or an opportunity to show the base he is their guy and not just a “maverick.”)
