Picking the Winners
Following up on my Iowa picks last week in a limited office poll, here’s what I submitted today for the top three finishers in NH — plus, my guesses on the approximate percentage of votes they’ll each receive.
(With some NH areas already voting, I probably should have submitted my guesses last night, but so it goes.)
DEMOCRATS
1. Obama 39%
2. Clinton 30%
3. Edwards 18%
REPUBLICANS
1. McCain 34%
2. Romney 29%
3. Huckabee 13%
Agree or disagree with my guesses, what are your predictions?

My prediction is very similar for the Dems –
1. Obama 38%
2. Clinton 28%
3. Edwards 15%
4. Richardson 11%
5. Kucinich 3%
The only real wiggle room I see is between Edwards and Richardson. Edwards has the name recognition, but he is not very well liked in NH. Richardson might hold more appeal for any of the Independents who don't jump on the Obama wagon.
