[0:00] Also playing defense, the famed future
[0:02] Hall of Fame pitcher Roger Clemens comes
[0:05] out throwing heat on the subject of
[0:07] steroids. From New Hampshire, NBC
[0:10] Nightly News begins now.
[0:13] [music]
[0:15] This is NBC Nightly News with Brian
[0:18] Williams.
[0:22] And good evening from Manchester, New
[0:24] Hampshire, where the voters of this
[0:26] state have the ability to make or break
[0:29] the hopes and dreams of several
[0:31] candidates for president. This is the
[0:33] home stretch for both political parties
[0:35] in this fiercely independent state. It's
[0:38] just the second contest of this election
[0:41] season, but because of the wideopen
[0:43] campaign underway for so many months, it
[0:46] feels already like the end of a long
[0:49] road. The candidates are tired, under
[0:51] great stress. This is when desperation
[0:54] can seep into the process. It seemed
[0:56] like it was all on display here in New
[0:58] Hampshire today. We spent a good part of
[1:00] this day behind the scenes with Senator
[1:02] Barack Obama. The new front runner going
[1:05] nonstop across this state today. We'll
[1:08] have a full report on that a bit later
[1:10] on. Our NBC News political team is
[1:12] deployed throughout this state. Tonight,
[1:14] we begin with the race for the
[1:16] Democratic nomination. and NBC's Andrea
[1:19] Mitchell. Andrea, good evening.
[1:22] >> Good evening. From a Hillary Clinton
[1:23] rally, a noisy rally confronted by the
[1:26] surge of support for Barack Obama. The
[1:28] Clinton campaign is trying to survive
[1:31] New Hampshire, get by New Hampshire, and
[1:34] then regroup for the primary still to
[1:36] come.
[1:37] >> And so wonderful.
[1:39] >> Clearly showing the strain this morning.
