early results new hampshire

Looks like Mitt is outpolled by the the alternative conservative candidates, Gingrich, Santorum (surging from behind) and Ron Paul.  We shall see what South Carolina holds.  Santorum will probably surge some more down there.  After SC the republican race will be clearer, and Mitt's position as front runner will be clearer.  Big question is what happens when its just Mitt and 2 others, or just one other republican - will Mitt be outpolled then?  Mitt will do better in Nov than any other republican candidate, but will he get the nomination?  Or will this be a Barry Goldwater year? (popular conservative gets republican nomination but nation rejects candidate)
