Two Numbers From The UNH Poll In New Hampshire

Both good for Hillary Clinton. Here's the data.

First, Clinton is essentially tied with Barack Obama among independents.

And second, nearly 50% (47%) of potential Dem voters in New Hampshire view Hillary Clinton as electable -- the most electable, in fact, of the field. Her electability number exceeds the margin by eleven points.

One number that gives cheer to Obama: More than three fourths of the 75% of New Hampshire voters who aren't currently supporting Obama would consider supporting him.

(Obama's three point bump in the head-to-head is meaningless, at this point).
