MSNBC has projected John McCain will win the Republican New Hampshire primary.
MSNBC's Norah O'Donnell is covering exit polls in New Hampshire and their numbers show that more than 50% of Republicans polled are either dissatisfied or angry with President Bush. I saw earlier polling data that showed 93% of Democrats disliked Bush, but the high marks on the GOP side mirror the national polling and it's damn nice to see that reality put out on a national stage during a primary. Somehow, I don't think George will lose much sleep over these numbers...
UPDATE: (Nicole) At this very early stage, it looks like we're seeing a repeat of Iowa in terms of getting out the vote. Voters are turning out two to one Democratic in New Hampshire.

The Straight Talk is back, and its running on a mini spare!
If the RePukes are unhappy with Chimperator Bush why would they vote for the hate-filled lunatic who wants to continue Bush's Crusade in the Middle East for a century?
The RePukes live in Bizarro World 24/7
(First?)
The Republican party would like to thank all you hampshires for voting for Hillary Clinton.
This will allow the GOP to tap into a number of deep seated fears in the voting population resulting in their candidate winning.
McCain was declared their least worst. Hooray for him!

Now it's okay to bomb, bomb, bomb Iran. Weeee!
jeez,, 40% satisfied,, thats just wild..
CD @ 3:
Miss Cleo is in the house again.
now that charlie keating is dead, how will mccain fix the mortgage mess.
mccain is the leader of this caucus, the repugs hate bush and yet they want someone in who will continue the same shit we are in now.... HOW RETARDED IS THAT?
It looks like NH and Iowa are consistent only in one aspect: Giuliani sucks.
the nh polls show mccain is leading now, the repugs hate bush, and yet they want someone who is just as stupid as the current assholes in the whitehouse, bush and cheney.
JUST HOW RETARDED IS THAT?
dadams @ 10:
That's why they are Republicans. You can't blame them for being dumb.
I don't get it. Everyone's is bitching about the war and yet they elect a guy who wants more war, even a 100 year war - that's straight from his mouth! And then you have Billary on the other hand with pretty much the same message. Either this shit is beyond rigged or America is as stupid as some people claim.
dadams @ 10:
As retarded as it gets.
McCain will be the toughest Republican candidate for the democrats to defeat, let's hope the next states get it all mixed up.
Rudy rigging Florida comes to mind
If you don't like Bush, why are you voting for a Bush-lite?
Very interesting. Frankly, I think the Republican primaries are the more important. Why?
1. Hillary sucks and will lose - she's not liberal, and she's just more of the same. After her support for the Kyl/Lieberman bill, she lost what little credibility she had with The Tweakerbell.
2. Obama's a 50/50 - his success against the Republicans would depend on who the R's nominate, how he responds to the swift boaters who will arrive soon, and what comes out of the next few primaries and debates.
3. Edwards is the only one who can clearly win, but his anti-corporate message doesn't swing with the corporate MSM. Hence: the need to support him, IMHO. He's a white southern male, and that's the only thing the Dems can do given contemporary demographics.
4. If the R's cough up Huckabee, even hillary could beat him. She'd take him apart in a debate. She'd destroy Romney too, but he's got that ultrasheen going, and his dickheadedness (so obvious to Dems) comes off as "cool macho swagger" to the Great Unwashed. Also, I've been talking to a lot of Evangelicals, and many of them, esp. the younger ones who are going to be the swing vote in the bible thumping demographic, are actually OK with his freakazoid religion - magic underwear and all. So, the R's rank and file are pro Huckabee, but are willing to hold their nose and check off on Romney.
5. Guiliani is NOT to be underestimated, and a Guiliani/Clinton election would go straight to the dumper and get VERY ugly. Actually anyone vs Guiliani is going to be an ugly campaign - the guy is a total thug. He is NOT big with the Jebusfreaks. something about a cross-dressing serial monagamist kind of sets off a lot of their alarm bells.
6. Then there's McCain. McCain would beat Hillary, easily. McCain would be 50/50 against Obama, and vs Edwards - now THERE would be the battle royale... McCain - mister "I take it up the poop shoot for corporate america" McCain vs. mister "I'm a millionair fighting for the little guy" Edwards... THAT would be the starkest possible election.
PLEASE BE CLEAR: This election is VASTLY more important than even 2004. The election of 2004 was like 1856 - it set the stage for a complete disaster. The election of 1860 saw the victory of a progressive capitalist class over the last vestiges of feudalism. Now we are faced with ENORMOUSLY starker and creepier problems than slavery: ecocide and the impending collapse of petroleum in a society that has made ZERO preparations for it and has completely ignored its best report on the subject, the Hirsch Report. The R's will merrily drive the train right off the cliff. Edwards KNOWS what's going down and has already spoke of Americans having to face the fact of sacrifice.
The Civil War could have destroyed the United States. No big deal. What we are facing now is the extermination of life on this planet at the hands of suburban retards too fat and lazy too get off the barcalounger much less ride a bike or take a train, all for the sake of their self-absorbed sense of entitlement and convenience.
THAT'S a war that makes the USA itself just a pawn in a much larger war of humanity fighting its own worst inclinations, and that requires TRUE leadership. It won't come from Hillary - she's part of the problem. IT COULD come from Obama if he grew some cajones and faced facts in an unblinkered manner. IT WOULD come from Edwards (or Kucinich).
That's why this next election is the most important in the history of the Republic. If it goes to the R's I seriously doubt there will be much of a Republic by 2012. The Tweakerbell has spoken...
ONLY 93% of Democrats are unhappy with Bush? WTF? Pay attention you 7%!
ashton @ 8:
I predict you will write stupid crap on the internet.
dadams @ 10:
The Democrats hate Bush and the war but have a woman in the lead right now who has voted with Bush/neocons/AIPAC on war/foreign policy all the way since she has been in the Senate. How retarded is that?
Republicans angry with Bush!?
hahahahahahahahahaha!
You elected the f-tard, just imagine how the rest of us feel?
teakerbell,
Have you met many people who are not aware of Hillary's voting record in the Senate? Most of the people I know who were/are supporting her were unaware of her votes until I told (and in some instances had to prove) them. If her record gets out there she's doomed. She needs to be held accountable for her unapoligetic votes on Iraq, Patriot Act, renewal of the Patriot Act, cluster bombs, Kyl/Lieberman. She wants to appease certain lobbies with those votes? Let her explain them to the rest of the Dems.
The media manufactured this win, they are scared of Huckabee. Hucks not enough of a killer to satisfy the black corporatocracy.
This is all a show.
MSNBC's not even reporting Edward's vote total...why not?
Henry T @ 24:
Don't blame them. I am scared of Huckabee too.
mccain?? Big Yawnnnn- All the goofy repubs should have the decency to just go home- nobody cares.
That picture of McCain looks awfully young...any chance they're using his 2000 campaign photo?
Romney loses....let's celebrate!
http://pabulumadnauseam.blogspot.com/
McCain: worse victory speech...ever. Whatever he achieved by winning, he pissed away with that droner.
If we are lucky McCain will keel over soon.
bomb, bomb, bombidy bomb, bombidy bomb, bomb, bomb, bomb, more bombs, bombidy bombidy bombidy bomb. bomb, bomb, bombidy bomb, bombidy bomb. bomb, bomb, bomb, more bombs, bombidy bombidy bombidy bomb. bomb. bomb. bombidy. bombs.
for 100 years. fun times.
Concerned American @ 32:
...always nice to hear from a bitter Romney supporter!
Republicans probably aren't so much unhappy with Bush's policies as they are with Bush's current public image. If the propaganda organizations succeed in reconstructing his image after his presidency the way they did Reagan's, Republicans may resume their love of Bush.
Actually, this is scary. 48 percent of the Republicans are at least satisfied with Bush. So almost half the Republicans still haven't been paying attention. And they will vote for more of the same in 2008 as evidenced with McCain's lead. New Hampshire is somewhat liberal. So the rest of the country, primarily the Red States, are probably even more satisfied with Bush. After 8 years this country is still populated with alot of dipshits.
Mr. Grumpy Pant's big night.
Now who the hell are those 40%ers?
Chip @ 36:
I would hasten to point out simply that, yes, while that 48% number makes me want to scratch my eyes out, the voter turn out for the elephants was nothing like that for the Democrats, so that 48% number is more like 25% of all NH primary voters, more or less mirroring that part of the country that so drags the rest of us down with them.
biscuitesque @ 26:
To the corporate media, even MSNBC, Edwards is the enemy. They will do their best to marginalize him without being too obvious about it.
And...
Somehow, I don’t think George will lose much sleep over these numbers…
Bush and Cheney were never concerned about their public approval ratings, they were not appointed to serve the public. Pick up a copy of Investor's Business Daily and read a few articles and editorials and it becomes very clear who's interests Bush and Cheney serve.
Agree with President PNACcio on Bush not caring. Bush becoming president was to prove to his father he was not the family fuck up. All Bush has ever cared about is his ego and sending huge sums of money to his oil tycoons and warmongers.
So 75% of voters are unhappy with the current president.
That tells me people want more out of their gov't and elected officials. More taking charge, more results, more, dare I say, HONESTY.
Of course king george won't loose sleep, he's out of there in a year, he ain't fighting for nothing more.
51% THATS A MANDATE!
I just can't imagine why Repukes would be unhappy with Bush. He's a uniter , not a divider. He's united most of the country against all Repukes. Thanks George, ya narcissistic little fuckwad.
McCaine is a traitor, learn the dirty truth about the neocon's favorite poster boy.

McCain came in 4th in Iowa, this tiny state is almost meaningless with 48 to go. This is no comeback, just the votes of a bunch of yankee corporate zombies. McCain still sucks like he always did.
dadams @ 10:
It's not retarded at all. They say they want change, and they want to distance themselves from chimpy. What they really want is the never-ending war that they're making money on.
You watch, the somnambulent GOP supporters will swallow it; hook, line and sinker.
wake up call: the market's dropping again, we owe vast amounts to china and the rest of the world and we continue to wage war against a country that had nothing to do with 911. yes, bush and his cronies are on the way out, but they have done what they set out to do. they have lined their pockets for them all future generation of bushies. what gets me is why there is still a large contingent of people in this country who still believe in the bs they espouse. talk about "in denial."
Republicans are disappointed with Bush enough to vote for McCain who is a carry on Bush regime policies standard bearer.
Andrew @ 19:
I believe those polls are phony.
I'm surprised there isn't a thread here about Bush shaking the sabre again to lead the way for the attack on Iran ...... which is already in motion.
Republicans unhappy with Bush??? Just the republicans...I'd say the whole damn nation. The Bush legacy will be the President who destroyed the credibility his own party. Thank to Bush and many others...
Republicans = incompetency, perversion and poison (not that the dems are much better)
Just how retarded is it to vote for the republicans which have been carrying Bush and Cheney's water for the last 7 years.
Reputes like to post about our democratic candidates while they let the criminal idiots roam free.
The attack is not on Hillary, Edwards, Obama or the democratic candidates, it is about Bush , Cheney and the republican criminal destruction of our people and country.
Bush , Cheney and the republicans have been selling our country "literally people, land, jobs, manufacturing and resources" to private Global corporations and foreign nations including ones with ties to terrorist and 911, like Saudi Arabia and Dubai for the past 7 years. What does it take to tell the idiots which forget that 15 of the 19 terrorist on the planes of 911 were Saudis and the majority of the insurgents killing our soldier in Iraq were citizens of Saudi Arabia and also funded by Saudis'. Now Bush is paying them not to kill our soldiers.
I ""don't see"" Bush and Cheney's battle cry for attacking Saudi Arabia for their citizens sponsored terrorist against out country. Reagan the great republican puppet which also believe in UFO and reported seeing them, funded and supported Saddam, Iraq, Paskistan in their quest of power and control.
Maybe the ties between Bush's family , oil , Cheney and the Saudis are to close and self rewarding to say the least.
Can one imagine what the cost to drive on private & foreign toll roads in the country will be, when Bush has finally sold our roads and we no longer have any control over. Bush is now flooding our country and roads with trucks from Mexico and their own drivers to kill off more of our union workers and American jobs.
Our congress voted for no increase in the trucks from Mexico, but as usual Bush does as he d... well wishes, just as his private mercenary army Blackwater does.
Prices will have the same disaster as Exxon has have on our country with their gas, heating oil and coal prices and the electric company has on the gas and electic prices we use. When people get upset the corporations yell "shortage" to put the fear factor into Americans which seems to work well for them.
Republicans want to talk about candidates with no character, concern for this country or are criminals , look in a d... mirror at your republican party, this will keep you busy.
How in the h... can someone see a change in McClain, Romney or the republican candidates. Ron Paul which are very conservative republicans. If elected then they will finish Bush's job of destroying our social progarms; road, health, retirement, educations, wages, national guards, courts, police force and every single programs which Bush has not completely destroyed yet.
msm owns the vote counting machines , well now it makes sense . I mean if so many people are angry and want change , yea I got it so ,
you vote for mccain
and get more of the same
not only should the whole WH be brought to trial , they should be stripped of any money they have made at our expense and then given life in gitmo.
Anybody dumb enough to still be a republican, deserves to be unhappy!
How stupid do you have to be to vote for McCain? If you are unhappy with bush why on earth do you vote for an idiot who supports everything bush does?
If McCain is elected I hope you enjoy the Iran war. I'm moving my ass to some obscure corner that isn't a nuke target.
