[0:00] Tonight

[0:02] from New Hampshire on the eve of the

[0:05] primaries, I'm fired up.

[0:07] >> An Iowa bounce for Barack Obama. He

[0:10] takes the lead in an

[0:24] country. And it's a twoman battle

[0:26] between a rising John McCain and a

[0:28] falling Mitt Romney. You must be a bit

[0:31] frustrated though, Governor. Come on,

[0:33] level with me on that. I'm Katie [music]

[1:30] Hillary Clinton here in New Hampshire.

[1:32] Not only that, Obama, for the first

[1:34] time, has pulled into a tie with Clinton

[1:37] as the national frontr runner in a new

[1:39] USA Today Gallup poll. In that same

[1:41] poll, Mike Huckabe has taken the lead

[1:43] from Rudy Giuliani on the Republican

[1:46] side. All the candidates are feeling the

[1:48] pressure. And at a campaign stop today,

[1:51] a rare show of emotion from Senator

[1:53] Clinton when she took a question from a
