Roving this race is far from pon republican side, donald trump pclear winner. P35 percent. Pthe night Biggest Surprise was pohio Governor John Kasich he pcame in second, 16 percent. Pand then behind him, a 3way tie pfor third place ted cruz, jeb pbush, marco rubio. Pdemocratic side with 60 percent, p60 percent, Bernie Sanders pbeating Hillary Clinton by more pthan 20 points. Ptough loss for her too she won pthis state by way in 2008. Plets get to Craig Patrick our olitical editor to talk about pwhere things go from here. Phey craig. Pgood morning russell how are pyou . Pgood, thank you. Plets start with a donald trump. P and his big win last night. Pwhats the message New Hampshire psent to the republicans p polls were right. Pthats biggest message of all. Plook, you know donald trump poverperformed his poll numbers. Pand with this i think puts iowa pbehind him in shows that the pstrong support he has been preceiving not just in new phampshire but across the nation pcan in fact translate. Pthey are from trump good go out pand vote for him and bet that pthat troubles the republican privals in the race to trump. Pbecause he is shown that he will pbe very, very hard to stop. Pand if you look exit polling ptrump won amongst everybody. Phe wiped him out of everybody pelse across the table. Pgeographically, by race, by age, pby gender, you name it. Pjohn kasich, i, the things i phear is hes the republican that peven a democrat could vote for. Pis he the anti trump . P trump would say the same papplies to him as well. Pand it does. Pbut yes john kasich is prelatively moderate in prepublican race. Phe made himself a real contender pbased on the retail politics of pNew Hampshire. Phe squatted on that state for pabout four weeks. Phe turned in strong debate erformance. Pwith this hes very much on the pmap. Roblem he has hes lacking in pmoney relative to other pcandidates and organization. Phim right now in South Carolina. Pbut, a strong showing in new phampshire has a way of pgenerating money for you and pgiving you a bounce in the olls. Plets talk about democrats for a pminute.

Pand made bill clinton comeback pkid famous pl she with was plopped polls showed she would plose by 13 points. Pthis is something that is going pto a dog the clinton campaign, articularly if Bernie Sanders pfinds a way to driver up his psupport among African American pdemocrats as the race heads psouth. Pthis could be a canary, i mean pmore than for Hillary Clinton. Pi think they should sense ptrouble in this. P well, lets, lets go back pthen. Pthets talk about we know who pwon. Pwe know who lost. Pbut i mean in terms of prepublicans, big losers last pnight, it looks like chris pchristie may have may be getting pready to hang it up. Pgoing to assess things. Roblem he has now what state pdoes he win . Phes not going to win south pcarolina, is he going to win pmichigan, look at the map at pthis point hes doing some soul psearching. Ptheres a chance if not a very pgood chance that he might be phanging it up. Psame has to apply to carlie pfiorina as well. Pexpect at least a couple of pcandidates if not those two to pdrop out based on the ruts that pwere seeing in New Hampshire plast night this morning. Pbefore we go, our florida pcandidates, jeb may be better pthan expected last night . P yes. P and marco rubio not good at pall a terrible performance in pdebate.

Pthunder rouse applause erupts. Pso you know, yes, sir in olitics you often do get a psecond chan. Pand rubio does have a second pchance. Pbut boy, this really knocked the pwind out of his sails. Pit is going to be hard for him pin part because jeb bush has psome movement in his favor.
