Republican Mike Huckabee was projected the winner of his party’s Iowa caucuses not quite one hour after the process began. Huckabee ran a God-centric campaign in a state with many evangelicals. It’s a different electorate here in New Hampshire, where the first-in-the-nation primary will be held January 8.
Huckabee has spent only about $30,000 to advertise in New Hampshire, some of that for his widely-discussed Christmas ad, which was still running a few hours ago.
Latest polls indicate John McCain maintains his recent strength in New Hampshire, a state he swept in 2000, only to stumble in South Carolina.
