NEW HAMPSHIRE: THE DEMOCRAT PRIMARY

Ken Berwitz


Here is the story of New Hampshire\’s Democrat primary:  

-Hillary Clinton lost to Bernie Sanders, 60% – 38%.  A royal creaming.

-She lost to women by 11%.  That special place in hell Madeleine Albright obnoxiously talked about is getting awfully crowded.

-She lost badly to voters 45 and under;

-She tied voters 45 – 64, and won among over 65\’s.  This tells us that, at least in New Hampshire, Hillary Clinton comes across as so old and tired that a candidate 6 years her senior – and a self-professed socialist to boot (shades of Norman Thomas) – is fresher…but she\’s in solid with the geriatric set.

-And she won among voters in households with incomes of $200,000 a year or more – which may only demonstrate that, to well-off people, anyone is better than a socialist who wants to tax their socks off, but might also suggest that – her protestations aside – Hillary Clinton is the preferred Democrat among the rich folk.  And why not?  Don\’t birds of a feather stick together?

Is Hillary Clinton\’s candidacy in trouble?  No more than a skydiver who forgot his parachute.
