Donald Trump, Bernie Sanders look to emerge from New Hampshire with wins
Ted Cruz. In the two-person race for the Democratic nomination, Sanders has held an advantage over Hillary Clinton in New Hampshire for weeks. Instead, Christie came in sixth place – behind Trump, Kasich, Texas Sen.
Democratic presidential candidate Sen. “We’re going on to SC”.
But among Rubio voters was a lot of heartburn over New Hampshire primary victor Donald Trump and concern about last Saturday’s GOP debate, in which the junior senator from Florida repeated the same line about Obamacare four times – which led to the nickname “Robot Rubio”. The only age group where she came out ahead was the over 65s.
Billionaire businessman Donald Trump is widely expected to win Tuesday’s primary, which is part of the state-by-state process of picking party nominees for the November 8 general election to replace Democratic President Barack Obama.
“That’s what people want”, he said, decrying “the insults and the divisiveness”. “But they’re also hungry, they’re hungry for solutions”. According to polls, one-third of Republicans were still undecided as of the weekend. Rand Paul (who suspended his campaign after the Iowa caucus) and Kasich.
The biggest question mark is who wins the mud fight for the establishment mantle in the GOP race. “It is important to remember the facts: that these forms of torture not only failed their objective to secure actionable intelligence to prevent further attacks on the USA and our allies, but compromised our values, stained our national honor and did little practical good”, the Arizona Republican said.

“Wow, wow, wow, wow”, Trump declared, savoring his victory at a campaign rally before promising swift action as president on the economy, trade, health care and more.
“It’s less about Cruz and more about Cruz delivering a punch to another candidate – like Jeb Bush or Marco Rubio. There’s no reason to go to SC and sit in a hotel room and do that”.
Even before the candidates arrived, the state’s airwaves were being flooded with negative attack ads, with each man hoping to do down rivals and emerge as the mainstream choice to successfully challenge Trump.
Yet they were not the first to cast their ballot. He rose in the polls going into New Hampshire. He survived only by exceeding very low expectations.
Following his strong third-place showing in Iowa, Rubio was surging in the national polls.
He could only offer supporters a mea culpa.
“I know many people are disappointed”. And when you talk to voters, they often see whatever version of Rubio they want – the uniter, the conservative, the immigrant hero or the electable Republican. I did not do well on Saturday night, so listen to this: “That will never happen again”. Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush, Ohio Gov. John Kasich and New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie have all staked their White House bid on New Hampshire, hoping a strong showing here will lead voters – and crucial financial donors – to give their candidacies another look.
