Daniel Koffler / Pajamas Media:
RON PAUL BIGOTRY REVOLUTION  —  A damning New Republic expose on Ron Paul shows the “libertarian” Republican candidate to be a racist, a homophobe and an anti-Semite.  Will his diehard supporters continue to defend a man who called Martin Luther King a gay pedophile?
The New Republic:
Selections From Ron Paul's Newsletters  —  The Newsletters: Since at least 1978, Ron Paul has attached his name to a series of newsletters—Ron Paul's Freedom Report, Ron Paul Political Report, The Ron Paul Survival Report, and The Ron Paul Investment Letter—that frequently made outrageous statements:

New Hampshire Turnout ‘Absolutely Huge’  —  ABC News' Karen Travers Reports: New Hampshire Deputy Secretary of State Dave Scanlan told ABC News that turnout among primary voters today is “absolutely huge” — and there are concerns about running out of ballots in towns like Portsmouth, Keene, Hudson and Pelham.

The Return Of The Bradley Effect?  —  It's one explanation for the big gap between the final polls and the result: … Tonight is the first primary - not a caucus.  People get to vote in a secret ballot - not in front of their largely liberal peers, as in Iowa.

J-Walking:
Race, Polls, Obama  —  It now seems pretty clear that virtually all of the late polling on the Democratic side was wrong... very wrong.  The last Rasmussen Report had Obama +7 over Clinton.  CBS had him +7.  USA Today had Obama +13 and CNN +10.  —  With more than 25% of New Hampshire now reporting Obama is -5.
Andrew Sullivan / The Daily Dish:
McCain Triumphs  —  After everything, this is McCain's night.  After the awful news about Ron Paul's ugly, repellent past newsletters, I find myself rooting again for the man who was my second choice.  He did this from scratch, after his campaign bottomed out last summer.

HILLARY'S WIN....I have several reasons for being pleased with the results of tonight's Democratic primary:  — I've made three electoral predictions so far: that the eventual candidates would be Mitt Romney and Hillary Clinton and that Iowa would turn out not to be as important as everyone thought.
