Dover, New Hampshire

TWO DAYS AFTER the Iowa caucus, the Clinton campaign circulated an email asking “Where’s the bounce?” for Obama. It’s here. Obama hadn’t led a New Hampshire poll by more than 3 points since last January. For most of 2007, he was down by double digits. Now nearly every poll taken since January 4 has shown him opening up a sizable lead. The numbers for Clinton border on the macabre:

She’s down by double-digits in New Hampshire in most polls. Her national numbers, which gave her a 20+ point lead three weeks ago, show her nearly tied with Obama. She had a healthy lead in Nevada, too. But in the next 24 hours, Obama is set to receive the endorsement of one of the major casino employee unions. In South Carolina, Obama is already at +11.
