[0:04] President Bush says he got the message
[0:06] he'll roll up his sleeves and fight Pat
[0:08] Buchanan, the self-styled outsider who
[0:11] today returned home to Washington DC.
[0:16] This is NBC Nightly News with Tom Bro
[0:20] reporting tonight from NBC News
[0:22] headquarters in New York. Good evening.
[0:25] There are new numbers out of the New
[0:26] Hampshire Republican presidential
[0:27] primary tonight. The original network

[1:10] a president who admitted he felt better
[1:12] after late returns came in showing his
[1:14] lead had increased.
[1:16] >> Lot different than I heard some of you
[1:17] guys talking about earlier last evening
[1:19] when I admit I was a little tense.
[1:21] Little tense, John, with a couple of
[1:22] reports I heard there.
[1:24] >> But the results were close enough for
[1:26] the Bush camp to overhaul its strategy,
[1:28] scheduling more trips like this one to
[1:30] Tennessee, one of the states up for
[1:32] grabs in 3 weeks on Super Tuesday. The
