Whew.

Clinton, knocked from her front-runner perch on Thursday night, seemed in an even worse state of weariness. She began her trip through New Hampshire by disparaging Iowa, the state she had been wooing for the past year, for a caucus system that doesn’t allow for voters who simply can’t show up. “This is a new state,” she said at a diner in Manchester. “You’re not disenfranchised if you work at night. You’re not disenfranchised if you’re not in the state.”

At the moment, Clinton seems to be the one in danger of disenfranchisement. She had only a couple hundred people at her arrival rally in an airport hangar. At Obama’s arrival rally, 1,000 people or more filled the old Pan Am hangar.
