CNN - Politics: Reports " Jeb Bush will swing through New Hampshire this weekend, making his inaugural 2016 trip to the first-in-the-nation primary state ahead his expected presidential campaign. "
Lets Get Real:
It is in Iowa and New Hampshire that the candidates are tested, the electorate is small and they have seen hundreds of candidates over the years, they expect candidates to court them, they hit the car wheels, that is a metaphor for the campaigns, test out different candidates, of course New Hampshire is the first primary election, if the same candidates win both Iowa and New Hampshire then they are on the roll for the nomination, of course some candidates who win Iowa do not win NH, a classic example is that Bush 41 won in Iowa in 1980 and then Reagan turned around his campaign to win NH and then the nomination. At the start of 2016 it will be cold and the D,C press core will be with the candidates. Before then the candidates for 2016 will pay hundreds of visits to Iowa and NH, some will even stay there, some NEVER get out. As these two States go early the other 48 States feel left out, thus they have moved their votes up early in the year, the Republican nomination could be known by the end of January 2016.
