"Eight years ago, New Hampshire breathed life back into Hillary Clinton’s ailing presidential campaign after her disastrous third-place finish in Iowa.
This time around, the first-in-the-nation primary state is shaping up to be the tougher early-voting-state battleground — Clinton allies are willing to acknowledge she could lose it to Bernie Sanders, the senator from neighboring Vermont who is currently leading in the polls.

Despite the headline, I don't think NH matters.
Mrs. Clinton is solidly ahead in IA. She is killing Bernie in SC.
Being a native son of sorts, along with a very friendly political environment, it would not be unexpected for Bernie to take NH. All I see NH doing is keeping Bernie in the race until he gets crushed in SC.
