This is about as good a result as I can imagine. Both of my least favorite candidates, Dean and Clark, had bad nights. I think that many Clark supporters in New Hampshire are going to reconsider now that there's more than one viable anti-Dean candidate, and I expect that Kerry will retake second place in NH while Clark will struggle to stay ahead of Edwards.
With Lieberman on life support, I'm now hoping that John Edwards is the Democratic nominee, though I would settle for Kerry (never thought I'd write that). Just anyone but Dean or Clark, who has said so many dumb things in only three months that Kerry's starting to look good in comparison.
