By the way, John McCain backers shouldn't get too excited

As the wise political analyst Michael Barone points out:

"...[McCain's] 2008 percentage in New Hampshire (37 percent) was visibly lower than his 2000 percentage there (48, against fewer serious candidates)." He still has a long way to go. Conservatives do not like McCain-Feingold, for example (the campaign finance reform bill); how will McCain get past that?
