 Hello/Intro DebatesReturn to index of stories... |
Hello, welcome to this special pre-primary edition of New Hampshire Outlook, I'm Beth Carroll. Voters were treated to doubleheader debates in the final days before the NH vote. The crucial forums were broadcast the same day a CNN/WMUR poll showed a dead heat between Hillary Clinton & Barak Obama on the democratic side and, a surge for John McCain with Mitt Romney dipping to 2nd place. Just as in Iowa, NH polls show voters more interested in "change" than experience. Outlook's Richard Ager watched Saturday's back-to-back debates with Washington Post Columnist EJ Dionne to get his perspective as we head into the campaign homestretch. |

And 57% of those votes favored Sen. Barack Obama. Republican candidate Mitt Romney received 35% of the republican votes.

TV Ads SCRIPT NATS: Pol Ad Tape: Barack/kids merry christmas happy holidays smile:48 TRK1: Just as retailers rely on tv ads to sell products, campaigns rely on tv ads to sell themselves. NATS: EDWARDS Christmas tree behind him /36:08 1 out of homless.veterans.poverty who speaks for them.season of miracle 36"20 faith and love… TRK2: How effective are these messages? We called on Jennifer Borda - an assistant professor of Communication at UNH … to help us sort thru the latest crop of ads. NATS: Huckabee Ad / 15:45 Huckabee: are you worn out CU TRK2: While Mike Huckabee's ad evoked some criticism for mixing politics & religion - Borda says it hit its mark. SOT: 1:02:44 It fits in well with his image.trying to construct.:46 1:03:04 I think silent night song playing in background overall religious intonation:10 1:03:17 I think it kind of works for audience he's targeting 1:03:20 TRK3: Hillary Clinton's ad turned issues into gifts. NATS: Clinton Pol Ad Tape:43 music up…bring troops home.where univ pre k…there it is… happy holidays 1:11 SOT: Jen: 1:11:28 she was presenting her wishes for country univ health care war with Iraq combining holiday greeting and reminding viewers of pol platform is but I think it also showing her with gifts, a softer image of her than you've seen in other ads of her recently…I think that worked as well. SOT: 1:20:03 2 very dif ads there but I think strategically they both work well. |

Analysts say.the sheer number of ads dilutes their importance -- which only means ads have to be really good to cut through the noise. |
