when i know and what i think the people of new hampshire know is that the people of new hampshire have a very important responsibility. they have not cast their votes yet. 80% of them have not yet quite made up their mind. they all know they want to see me debate hillary clinton. josh: we are notorious for relating to the last minute. the two names people are talking about a lot, obviously donald trump continues to be in the news, and ted cruz, what you see as the difference between the two of them and what you make of are they similar or they the same canada, one wearing cowboy boots? ms. fiorina: you know what a similar? both trump and cruz claim to the outsiders and both of them are the ultimate insiders. ted cruz has been inside the political establishment. donald trump has been a chronic capitalist buying influence from those in the establishment all his life. that is how he has rake in billions of dollars. what they engaged in was a fight about their power and position, had nothing to do with their american people, as the game of politics rarely does. it had nothing to do with pr

business travelers arriving home to new hampshire from new york say there was no calm before the storm getting out of the city . >> in going from the city to laguardia, the normal 25-30 minutes was an hour and 15 minutes with the traffic and everybody getting there, so it was really quite crowded. >> it was a mess. it was really crowded. we heard one announcement where they were offering $900 back with the hotel for people to get off one of the flights to charlotte. >> wonderful, i' thelma and louise. yes, thelma and louise. they plan to make their great winter escape after the storm passes. >> florida the end of the month. jean: but if you do have flight milne travel says airlines are offering waivers and suggests you be pro-active in shifting your schedule. we' re lucky it's not coming to boston, but its going to be affecting the pattern all the way down the east coast. try to get out earlier, if they can change their plans to get out tomorrow, or maybe after the storm on sunday. jean: it could take days for airlines to get everyone back on track. the good news, saturday is the slowe

in new hampshire, the new hampshire union leader, dropped as a debate sponsor for the last new hampshire republican debate. which is going to be hosted by abc news next month. the "union leader" newspaper was part of the sponsorship of that debate. but donald trump has gone to war with the "union leader" and its publisher, joe mcquaid, recently and now abc has decided to drop them from that very, very important debate. >> what a pile of garbage that newspaper is. so i want to tell you, so we had an interesting thing. because you have a very dishonest newspaper up here. it's also a failing newspaper. it's going down the tubers. i remember when this was a big paper. look at the size of this thing. if they cut it down anymore you won't be able to find it. it looks like the things you know when you go to the grocery store where they give you a little handout. what do they call that? coupons? so this guy. his name's joe mcquaid.

this game had new hampshire written all over it. here in the second period, brendan robbins gets a goal to make it 3-1. his first career goal. he also had an assist. robbins is a freshman from nashua. both head coaches are new hampshire natives. bedford's rand peknold for berlin for umaine. the game ended in a 3-3 tie. it seemed like good timing for the bruins to play the montreal canadiens tonight. 2 straight wins for boston coming in. 4 straight losses for the struggling canadiens. let's see if those trends held true as they played at bell centre. first period, bruins in black and max talbot scores an unassisted goal. cool goal, he left canadiens all over the ice. 1-0 bruins after one. 1-1 in the 2nd. bruins on the attack, and finally on the backside, patrice bergeron is able to slide it under the montreal goalie mike condon. 2-1 bruins after 2 periods. then david pasternak gives the bruins a 2 goal lead all the way around the net for his 4th goal of the season 3-1. brad marchand added an empty netter and the bruins win 4-1. flame

since then, bill clinton lost new hampshire, won new hampshire to barack obama by a narrow percentage voint. mccain winning. i mention that because there's a headline this morning on the relevance and importance of the new hampshire primary. the question is to whether or not new hampshire will be first in 2020. guest: he's absolutely correct. texas republican champ had wanted to bring to this week's republican national committee meeting in south carolina a rule change to take away new hampshire's primary. ted cruz the texas senator who is a good friend of the republican chairman talked him into withdrawing that proposal at this time. and has said it's preposterous to talk about changing new hampshire's primary status. as bill, the longtime secretary of state, the longest serving state election official in the country, has said this is the first time he set the primary date in february 9th, of course this is the first time he hasn't had to break either democratic or republican primary rules in setting the date. despite a lot of the unrest we've heard from harry reid, republican s, the

in new hampshire it's an eternity. gwen: bill clinton should know because the race in iowa and new hampshire is suddenly tight. >> guess what. that inevitable candidate is not so inevitable today. i know that it is like to be knocked down but not knocked out. gwen: tension is building among republicans as well, with sarah palin back in the mix. sarah: they stomp on our neck and tell us to chill. well, look, we are mad and we've been had. gwen: and donald trump and ted cruz tagging the other as creatures of the establishment. ted: there's a reason the establishment is attracted to donald trump. because he's written huge checks to hillary clinton. donald: this is a guy that has two bank loans and now he's going after goldman sachs. it doesn't work that way. goldman sachs owns him. remember that, folks, they own him. gwen: meanwhile, the supreme court steps in to stir the pot again. agreeing to take another look at president obamas immigration policies. and five long-held u.s. hostages are freed in iran as the nuclear dea

look, new hampshire. very good to the clintons over the years and yet she might be an underdog there. but her big bat s&l to make sure she wins iowa, and doesn't give sanders any ground. >> absolutely. and it's a real jump-ball here right now in new hampshire, chuck. the stakes really couldn't be higher because if secretary clinton wins here in new hampshire it would allow her to lock up the nomination early. but this is a must-win state for bernie sanders. and right now, as you point out, a number of polls show that he has the lead here. he's from neighboring vermont. equality taking on the big banks and wall street have really resonated with the progressive voters here. he has 18 field offices, and overall, in the last quarter, he raised $33 million just 4 million shy of secretary clinton. so he's in a strong spot. but secretary clinton trying to match that, she's added some events here in new hampshire today. she's deploying her not so secret weapon, former president bill clinton, tomorrow, of course,

he has to do well new hampshire. he knows the only way he can win new hampshire if he can get in front of as many people as possible. he's selling new hampshire on his personality. he wanted to be in new hampshire doing town hall meetings and winning votes at every one of those town hall meetings. he wasn't happy he had to go back to new jersey and lead a storm response. he thought that it was unnecessary. i'm sort of sympathetic to that. but he clearly miscalculated a little bit by sort of poking people back home in new jersey in the eye about, you know, flooding and making a joke about that and, you know, hesitating in terms of whether or not he was going to come back at all. i was surprised how he handled it. >> are folks in iowa and new hampshire, are they seeing the chris christie that we know back here? is it translating out there? >> it is. they're seeing a milder version of chris christie. >> in what way? >> town hall meetings in new jersey there's a big, like, booming -- almost like a world wrestling event.
