The spin-room after the ABC/WMUR debates resembled something between a three-ring circus and a freak show. There were cameramen angling for the perfect shot of surrogates, reporters throwing their microphones at anyone willing to talk and people scratching their heads asking one another: whose this guy and why am I listening to him?
Here is some campaign spin!
Kevin Madden, Mitt Romney’s national press spokesman said Romney was “the best Republican candidate to bring change.”
While Mitt’s New Hampshire campaign director, Jim Merrill, called John McCain’s immigration bill amnesty. “It walks like amnesty, if it talks like amnesty it is amnesty,” he said.
Mark McKinnon, a McCain advisor said Romney is the candidate of change because “he’s changed his positions more than anyone else.”
The Democratic spin was buzzing with change.
New Hampshire Congressman Paul Hodes said “what Senator Obama means by change is a fundamental shift in the way politics is done in this country.”
On the flip side, Clinton spokesman Jay Carson said “these are big issues which is exactly why you can’t have people simply talk about them you need someone who can bring results.”
Surrogating for Bill Richardson, former Portsmouth Mayor Steve Marchand said Richardson was “outstanding” and the New Mexico Governor demonstrated that “he understands diplomacy and how to use it.”
Perhaps University of New Hampshire professor Andrew Smith summed it up best when he said “no one was watching these debates, everyone is watching football.”

Breaking News: GOP Candidates Dislike Obama
The headline out of tonight's Republican debate...the candidates don't like Obama.
Huckabee says Obama has inspired people and the GOP needs to give people something to vote for, not against.
Ron Paul says that he and Barack Obama share similarities, mainly the devote following of young people both candidates attracted.

It's Getting A Bit Fiesty
It appears that the Republicans brought their daggers with them and are using them frequently.
The recent exchange was between Mitt Romney and John McCain who were debating illegal immigration.
The press is eating it up.
Rudy just said that Ronald Reagan would "be in one of Mitt's negative commercials."
Welcome to the big leagues!

Oh, Snap!
Tonight we have had our first collective media outburst at the press filing center.
Discussing the war in Iraq Mitt Romney told Mike Huckabee "don't characterize my position," to which Huckabee responded "which one."
Throughout the press center there was a collective "Ohh!"

Clinton's Primary GOTV
From The Clinton Campaign:
The New Hampshire campaign’s 17 statewide offices – more than any other campaign in the state – are buzzing with activity. This weekend over 200 staff and thousands of volunteers will hit the streets across the Granite State, knocking on over 100,000 doors. Over the past months, the campaign has also made more than 1.4 million calls to voters and volunteers have sent out over 100,000 neighbor-to-neighbor letters, asking fellow Granite Staters to vote for Hillary.
The campaign will also reach voters as they drive down major New Hampshire roadways and read their local papers. The campaign unveiled nine billboards across the state and will run seven full page ads in daily newspapers on Sunday, January 6.

NH GOP Pulls Out of Fox GOP Forum
New Hampshire Republican Party Chairman Fergus Cullen releases the following statement regarding Sunday’s Republican forum on FOX:
“The first-in-the-nation New Hampshire primary serves a national purpose by giving all candidates an equal opportunity on a level playing field. Only in New Hampshire do lesser known, lesser funded underdogs have a fighting chance to establish themselves as national figures. Consistent with that tradition, we believe all recognized major candidates should have an equal opportunity to participate in pre-primary debates and forums.
“This principle applies to tonight’s debates on ABC as well as Sunday’s planned forum on FOX. The New Hampshire Republican Party believes Congressmen Ron Paul and Duncan Hunter should be included in the FOX forum on Sunday evening. Our mutual efforts to resolve this difference have failed.”
“While we understand that FOX News continues to move forward it is with regret, the New Hampshire Republican Party hereby withdraws as a partner in this forum.”

Draft Gore Ends Their Efforts
Draft Gore, the only statewide organization dedicated to getting voters to Al Gore's name on the New Hampshire primary ballot, has ended their efforts.
In an e-mail the organization states "Active efforts to "write in" Al Gore's name on the New Hampshire primary on Tuesday have been terminated."
The volunteer group now wants supporters to vote for a candidate who "most closely shares the values and global vision of Nobelist Al Gore."
An official candidate endorsement is under consideration.

Breakfast with Mike Gravel & Introduction to Voters
From the Gravel campaign:
"Senator Gravel will be at The Merrimack Restaurant in Manchester (786 Elm St.) each morning until the Jan 8th Primary, from 8:30 - 9:30 AM. He'll be having breakfast with supporters, media, and potential voters. Stop by, grab some oatmeal & coffee, and ask Senator Gravel your questions.
In addition, to combat exclusion and marginalization from the media, as well as a very modest campaign budget, the Gravel NH campaign has composed a brief video to introduce Senator Gravel to New Hampshire voters. Free Admission! Check it out and spread the word."

Former Biden Campaign Chairman Endorses Clinton
Senator Joe Biden's former New Hampshire campaign chairman has endorsed Hillary Clinton.
Franklin State Representative Jim Ryan had been serving has Biden's campaign chair until Biden dropped out of the race on Thursday.

Romney As The Change Agent
Mitt Romney has shifted his stump speech from discussing the “four walls” that keep America strong to now arguing that he is a candidate who can bring about change and deliver results.
Romney told a crowd of 250 Manchester citizens that he announced his presidential run in Detroit Michigan because he “wanted the symbolism of change to be a part of my campaign.”
“I think people recognize that sending the same people back to Washington is not going to change Washington. If you want to see change in Washington it’s going to take someone who knows how to change things,” he added.
Ranging from his time in Salt Lake City to helping establish universal healthcare in Massachusetts, Romney offered a laundry list of accomplishments to argue that he is the best candidate to change Washington D.C.
The former Bay State Governor ended his speech by telling voters “You can bring change.”

Obama Begins Airing 2 New Ads
Senator Barack Obama’s campaign announced today that it will begin airing two new television ads in New Hampshire. A thirty-second spot, entitled “ Independence,” highlights Obama’s New Hampshire newspapers endorsements, which praise his independent thinking and ability to unify the country. Obama was endorsed by the Boston Globe, the Nashua Telegraph, the Portsmouth Herald, Valley News, and Littleton Courier.
SCRIPT – “ Independence”
Barack Obama: We are one nation, we are one people, and our time for change has come.
Announcer: Barack Obama. Endorsed by New Hampshire’s most respected papers. Endorsed because he’s our “best chance to break partisan gridlock.”
Endorsed because of his “common sense solutions”
Endorsed for his “honesty”… “independence” and ability to “reset the country’s reputation in the world”
Only Obama can “unify the country”.
I’m Barack Obama and I approve this message.
SCRIPT – “Would”
Five years ago, he said what the others would not, opposing the rash and reckless war in Iraq; warning that it would not make us safer.
In Washington, he did what the others could not, taking dead aim at the power of lobbyists; passing the farthest-reaching ethics reforms in a generation.
And as President, he'll do what the others cannot, unite a divided nation, repair our standing in the world and bring change we can believe in.

Former Nashua Mayor Endorses Rudy
From The Giuliani Campaign:
The Rudy Giuliani Presidential Committee today announced that Don Davidson, the former Mayor of Nashua, has endorsed Rudy Giuliani for President. Davidson is recognized as a longtime local government leader in the state’s second largest city.
“Although we have a number of candidates to choose from in this year’s primary, only one has the record of a proven leader on issues that matter most to New Hampshire Republicans, and that is Rudy Giuliani,” said Davidson. “As Mayor of New York City, with the third largest government in the country, he cut taxes, reduced spending and helped create new jobs – despite having to work with an overwhelmingly Democrat city council.”

Michelle Obama, Senator Dick Durbin, Congressman Patrick Murphy to Campaign in New Hampshire
From The Obama Campaign:
Senator Barack Obama’s New Hampshire campaign announced today that Senator Obama’s wife Michelle will campaign in New Hampshire Sunday through Tuesday, January 6-8. Mrs. Obama will speak at house parties and meet with voters in the Concord area, Lakes Region, Upper Valley, and North Country to discuss Senator Obama’s vision for change and the values he will bring to the White House.
Also on Sunday through Tuesday, Illinois Senator Dick Durbin and Pennsylvania Congressman Patrick Murphy will be campaigning for Senator Obama, holding a series of event across the Granite State. Durbin, an Obama mentor and Senate Majority Whip, and Murphy, the only Iraq War Veteran currently serving in Congress, will hold joint events on the Seacoast and in Manchester to share their belief in Senator Obama’s sound judgment and ability to deliver real change we can believe in.

Humble Observations About The Next Couple of Days...
Here are a couple of humble observations about the next couple of days:
-Candidates will have limited time for events. Tonight the Dems have the 100 Club Dinner, tomorrow is the ABC Debate and Sunday is the Fox/GOP debate, all of these will take time away from the candidates. If you look at tomorrow most candidates do not have any events planned Saturday afternoon and Republicans will be stuck in a studio on Sunday night.
-John McCain and Barack Obama will be hosting their primary night events in Nashua.
-Prepare for the legions of national and international media outlets that will swamp the Manchester area. If you're looking for real contact with candidates while avoiding a large media following, I suggest going to events that are away from Manchester.

Senators Joe Biden and Chris Dodd have dropped out of the presidential race.
State Representative Jim Ryan, Biden's NH Chair, issued a statement that said "Tonight, we witnessed a great man, a great American, and a great friend of mine fight a proud fight out in Iowa. He didn’t spend millions of dollars, he didn’t throw the mud, and when the dust settles tomorrow, nobody will question Senator Biden’s conviction, nobody will question his passion, nobody will question his experience, and nobody will question his integrity."
According to our tally Biden had visited the Granite State 14 times over 22 days and hosted 29 public events.
Dodd had been here 18 times for a total of 35 days and 72 public events.

Gravel NOT Dropping Out
From The Gravel Campaign:
"Once again, the Mainstream Media has not gotten the facts straight.
MSNBC pundit Keith Olbermann has incorrectly declared that Sen. Gravel has dropped out of the race following the January 3rd caucus in Iowa. This is not true, and Sen. Gravel is still an active member in this race. We are requesting that MSNBC and Keith Olbermann retract their statement, and issue an apology to the campaign for promoting blatantly false misinformation.
Again, Sen. Gravel has not dissolved his campaign, and has no intentions of doing so."

View the ad here: http://www.johnmccain.com/tvads/
Script:
"Eight years ago, New Hampshire stunned the political world. You turned convention on its head because you didn't care what the experts or the media said.
"My friends, it's a different time, but it's the same place. You haven't changed and neither have I. But the issues are tougher and the times more dangerous.
"I've learned a lot in eight years. And I feel better prepared than ever to lead this country.
"Once again, I need your help. I'm John McCain and I approve this message."

Edwards Airs "Wave of Change" Ad
Today, the John Edwards for President campaign began airing a new 30-second television spot in New Hampshire. The “Wave of Change” spot, which features Senator John Edwards speaking at a campaign rally in New Hampshire, builds on the campaign’s growing momentum and organizational strength in the Granite State.
Ad Script:
Corporate greed has infiltrated everything that’s happening in this democracy.
It’s time for us to say “we’re not going to let our children’s future be stolen by these people.”
I have never taken a dime from a Washington lobbyist or a special interest PAC and I’m proud of that.
On January 8th, in New Hampshire, what will happen is you will rise. You will say “enough is enough.” And you’re going to create a wave of change that cannot be stopped.
I’m John Edwards and I approve this message.

Romney's "Vote For Tomorrow"
Today Mitt Romney began airing a new ad titled "Vote For Tomorrow." The thirty-second ad features Romney speaking directly into the camera and concludes with Romney saying "I'm Mitt Romney and I not only approve this message, I'm asking for your vote."
Script For "Vote For Tomorrow"
GOVERNOR MITT ROMNEY: "No one votes for yesterday. We vote for tomorrow. Every election is about the future.
"Many are pessimistic. I'm not.
"In the next ten years, we'll see more progress, more change than the world has seen in the last ten centuries.
"Our next president must unleash the promise and innovation of the American people.
"I'm ready for that challenge. The future begins now.
"I'm Mitt Romney and I not only approve this message, I'm asking for your vote."

Clinton, Edwards, Obama, Dodd, Richardson Statements on NH Civil Unions Law
Below is the statement that Senator Hillary Clinton made on the new Civil Unions law.
“As we begin a new year, New Hampshire begins a new chapter in the fair and equal treatment of gay and lesbian families as the Civil Unions law goes into effect today,” said Senator Clinton. “New Hampshire continues to lead the country in preserving the rights and freedom of all of its citizens.”
Senator John Edwards released the following statement today as New Hampshire's civil union law takes effect.
“In April of last year, Gov. Lynch and the state of New Hampshire passed a bill officially recognizing civil unions for gay and lesbian couples. This courageous act showed us that the idea of America – fairness, justice and equal opportunity – can become a reality when we have the courage to stand up for what is right.
“Today, the work of equality advocates comes to fruition as that law takes effect. New Hampshire’s decision to recognize civil unions and grant gay and lesbian couples the same rights granted by the state to heterosexual married couples is an important step forward on the march toward equality, fairness and justice.”
Senator Barack Obama today released the following statement on New Hampshire’s civil union law:
"Today, New Hampshire has started a New Year by taking an important step forward that will make a meaningful difference in the lives of so many gay and lesbian couples. As President, I'll work for the day when all gay and lesbian couples in America can enjoy the same legal rights and privileges as straight couples. It's time to stop using these issues to divide us; it's time to embrace a future of tolerance, equality, and hope."
Senator and Presidential candidate Chris Dodd issued the following statement on New Hampshire's Civil Unions law taking effect today.
"Today, New Hampshire took a big step forward in ensuring that gay and lesbian couples enjoy the same rights and responsibilities as their fellow citizens," said Dodd. "I was proud to support civil unions in my home state of Connecticut and I was proud to support Governor Lynch and the State Legislature when they passed this law last spring. I hope that New Hampshire's commitment to providing equal rights and responsibilities to all its citizens will serve as a positive example for the rest of the country."
New Mexico Governor and Democratic Presidential candidate Bill Richardson today released the following statement on New Hampshire's civil unions law:
I congratulate the state of New Hampshire for its strong step forward in protecting families and preventing discrimination through the legalization of civil unions.
As Governor of New Mexico, I expanded anti-discrimination laws, signed into law the state's first hate crimes legislation which included crimes based on sexual orientation and gender identity, and called a special session of the legislature to push for domestic partnerships after we almost passed them in the regular session.
I did all of this in a so-called "Red State." States like New Hampshire and New Mexico are moving forward on civil rights. What we need now is a president who is committed to this fight.

From The Kucinich Campaign:
The two radio advertisements, titled "A Real Democrat," and "Vote for YourHealth," are being broadcast to over a dozen radio stations in the state andacross the region. In the ads, the Congressman challenges the otherDemocratic candidates and distinguishes himself on issues of majorimportance to all Americans.
The first ad begins: "They have taken impeachment off the table. And they won't end the war in Iraq. They have been ready to go to war against Iran. Now they are talking about sending our troops to Pakistan. Republicans? NO. These are the Democratic leaders in Washington I'm talking about."Kucinich goes on to explain how he's the kind of Democrat who will fight for our democracy. He finishes, "If I'm your kind of Democrat, then I'll be your kind of President. A courageous vote is the only vote worth casting."

Buckley Wants All Candidates Included in Debates
Following a earlier statement from the New Hampshire Republicans, Democratic Chairman Ray Buckley issued the following:
"New Hampshire has a long and proud tradition of serving as a level playing field and is the one state where each candidate can be given an equal opportunity to be heard by the voters. I would strongly encourage any NH media outlet holding candidate debates or forums not to eliminate a sitting US Senator or member of Congress"

Obama Campaign Plans Massive GOTV Operation
From The Obama Campaign:
After ten months of building an unmatched organization across New Hampshire, the Obama campaign is gearing up for an unprecedented Get Out the Vote effort in the final stretch leading up to the Primary.
More than 700 town and ward captains spanning the state from Manchester to Berlin, Keene to Portsmouth, and everywhere in between have committed to working all day on Primary Day to ensure supporters in their neighborhoods get to the polls.
They will be trained, dispatched, debriefed (and fed) at more than 100 canvass staging locations, plus dozens of phone banks for areas that can’t be canvassed.
Together they will knock on hundreds of thousands of doors in the days between the January 3 Iowa Caucus and the January 8 New Hampshire Primary.
10,000 yard signs have been distributed around the state.

The campaign also unveiled a new web video outlining Senator Clinton’s priorities for the New Year.

NH GOP Wants All Major Candidates Included in Debates
New Hampshire Republican Party Chairman Fergus Cullen releases the following statement regarding primary weekend debates:
“Limiting the number of candidates who are invited to participate in debates is not consistent with the tradition of the first in the nation primary. The level playing field requires that all serious candidates be given an equal opportunity to participate – not just a select few determined by the media prior to any votes being cast.”
“Therefore, the New Hampshire Republican Party calls upon all media organizations planning pre-primary debates or forums for both parties to include all recognized major candidates in their events.”
“The New Hampshire Republican Party has notified FOX News of our position, and we are in ongoing discussions with FOX News about having as many candidates as possible participate in the forum scheduled for January 6.”
