THE NEW HAMPSHIRE PRIMARY

Ken Berwitz


This is just a prelim…I\’ll talk more about the primary tomorrow, when we have full results.

A few early observations:

-I am delighted to see Bernie Sanders clean Hillary Clinton\’s clock. Not that I would ever vote for Sanders, but because the thought of an accomplishment-less arrogant liar like Hillary Clinton being the Democrat Party nominee sickens me.  If I felt Sanders had any shot at all of winning the nomination I would not feel the same way…but what I smell is a late entry or two (even Jackass Joe Biden would be welcome at this point).

-I expected Trump to win New Hampshire, and it appalls me.  In just the last two days Trump questioned why anyone would hire Jeb Bush for anything, and called Ted Cruz a “pussy”.  He is an obnoxious blowhard who, for all his bluster and bragadoccio, has never accomplished a single thing in politics.  And please don\’t tell me about his business success:   business does not run the way politics does.  Barking out orders and viciously tossing personal insults at whomever doesn\’t bow down is not what a President does.  It is not what a mature person does.  It would, however, have gotten him a daily ass-kicking at PS 164 in Queens, where I used to hang out as a kid.

-I am glad to see Kasich and Bush running well, albeit far behind Trump.  I hope it sets one or the other of them up for a serious run.  I could vote for either man…and would certainly vote for either over Hillary Clinton or Bernie Sanders.

More on the primary tomorrow.
