Something tangentially related to New Hampshire!

Tying in with a post from yesterday and my rant du jour of the day, here's Rudy Giuliani de-linking a loaded term from its grave, historical significance. Only the outcome is that he's losing all his credibility and making it harder for fellow authoritarians to transform fear and tragedy into political power. Keep up the self-parody, Rudy!

"[Hillary's "emotional moment"] is not something I would judge anybody on one way or the other. And the reality is, if you look at me -- Sept. 11, the funerals, the memorial services, there were times in which it was just impossible not to feel ... the emotion."

(Video at the link. And early reports indicate that primary voting in a certain New England state is, like Iowa, very high. Always a good thing.)
