After New Hampshire

Hosted by
John Kerry won big yesterday in New Hampshire, with 39 percent of the vote. Howard Dean had just 26, John Edwards and Wesley Clark each got 12 percent, and Joe Lieberman scored 9, but nobody thinks it-s over. Iowa and New Hampshire are small, mostly white, states with a total of 67 Democratic delegates. Next Tuesday, more than four times that many will be up for grabs, in diverse states of the South, West and Midwest. What do black and Latino Democrats want to hear from front-runner Kerry? Can Edwards and Clark exploit their Southern credentials? Will Howard Dean continue to slip? We hear from Arizona, South Carolina and the biggest prize of all-Missouri, whose favorite son Dick Gephardt dropped out.
