Politics Following a third place finish in Iowa, many expect Senator Clinton to come out swinging in Saturday's debate. Since arriving in New Hampshire Friday morning, Clinton has tried to further outline the differences between her candidacy and Barack Obama's. Speaking to supporters Saturday, Clinton compared Obama to President Bush saying that he too once said he could unite the country, did not need to be experienced, and had the intuition that could solve the nation's problems. NECN's Josh McElveen has more on Clinton's campaign stop in Penacook, New Hampshire.

Politics With the wheels on the nominating process rolling, Barack Obama is hoping to coast to another victory in next week's first-in-the-Nation primary. The Democrat spoke Saturday at Nashua north high school to an overflow crowd of more than 2,500 people. Obama is trying to win over undecided voters saying that the time for change has come. For now his call seems to be working, making his limited government experience less of an issue for voters. In Iowa women and young voters helped put Obama over the top, and he is hoping for the same in New Hampshire. NECN's John Moroney has more.

Politics With President Bill Clinton watching from the shadows, Senator Hillary Clinton went before a cheering crowd of thousands of Democrats at the 100 Club Dinner in Milford, New Hampshire. Speaking just one day after her stinging third place finish in the Iowa caucus, Senator Clinton never once directly mentioned her rival presidential hopeful Barack Obama. Obama's Iowa victory was interpreted as a vote for change, but Clinton's speech had many a thinly-veiled reference.
"Everybody wants change, some people think you make change by demanding it," said Clinton.

Romney says he's running a different campaign in New Hampshire, and
is now taking aim at rival John McCain.

trail, Barack Obama said his win in Iowa lived up to his dreams.

Clinton's efforts to embarrass him with something he wrote in
kindergarten. When he was a young child, Obama wrote that he wanted
to be president. Clinton's campaign said it pointed to Obama's
long-devised plan to be president; Obama's campaign said it showed
how dirty Clinton is willing to play.
Speaking in Portsmouth this morning, Obama said the Iowa results
