The polls may have Hillary Clinton down by double-digits, but everybody knows that the New Hampshire primary electorate is unpredictable. So the former secretary of state is bringing a host of big Democratic guns to stump for her this weekend in the Granite State. They include Tampa Mayor Bob Buckhorn, weather permitting. A snowstorm has hit […]

It was a bad hair day for Donald Trump. The whitest people in America voted for a Canadian anchor baby instead of him. Incredible.

Nashua, N.H. — Good morning from the Extended Stay America motel in Nashua, where it was an absolutely balmy 53 degrees at 5:30 a.m. It’s not, however, expected to get any warmer.
