Welcome to the ice box of New Hampshire. The "Live Free or Die" state unless you expire from frostbite first.

It's chilly in this quintessential New England place. You might begin humming "Here Comes the Sun" in early May, if global warming kicks in.

The Granite State is a tough area where whiners are shunned. Ice Hockey without helmets, ice fishing with no shelter, steak and eggs. High cholesterol is a hobby.

New Hampshire.

Donald Trump is not a favorite son here. Too bellicose. Too "city-slicker." The conservative areas north of Concord like his policies. But, in general, his style is too brash for this rural place.

Nikki Haley plays well in the southern part of the state, which is dominated by Boston commuters fleeing punitive taxation. The South Carolinian is a factor here, and a good amount of Democrats will vote for her in the "open primary" next Tuesday in order to hurt Trump.

If Haley wins or even comes close, the corporate media will coalesce around this simple message: Trump is damaged.

Joe Biden is not even on the ballot because New Hampshire people loathe him.

Ron DeSantis bolted from Iowa to South Carolina because he didn't want to live free and die at the ballot box, which he will.

So, here's the setup. Trump versus Haley.

Let the snowball fight begin.

See you tonight for the No Spin News.
