		</div><p>Republican presidential hopeful Donald Trump appears to be heading for his first victory in the New Hampshire primary.</p>
<p>Democrat hopeful Bernie Sanders is cruising to a likely win over Hillary Clinton in what has become an unexpectedly competitive race.</p>
<p>As snowfall brought yet more uncertainty to the first-in-the-nation race&#8217;s final hours, Mrs Clinton tried to move past talk of a shake-up in her campaign and controversy over comments by supporters that women should feel obliged to vote for her to become America&#8217;s first woman president.</p>
<p>Campaigning across the north-eastern state with her husband, former US president Bill Clinton, and daughter Chelsea, she worked to flip Mr Sanders&#8217; favoured critique against her by claiming that he too had taken money from Wall Street &#8211; if only indirectly.</p>
<p>The New Hampshire primary traditionally plays a pivotal role by providing momentum to the winners heading into the next contests in South Carolina and Nevada.</p>
<p>Those candidates who fare poorly could see donations dry up and face pressure to withdraw from the race.</p>
<p>In the last 10 elections, the winner of the Republican primary went on to become the eventual nominee eight times; on the Democratic side, seven winners went on to become nominees.</p>
<p>Billionaire businessman Mr Trump launched the harshest attacks, not just against Texas senator Ted Cruz who had bested him in Iowa, but also against Jeb Bush.</p>
<p>The former Florida governor is one of three Republicans hoping that Florida senator Marco Rubio&#8217;s recent stumbles have opened a fresh path for one of them to emerge as the more mainstream alternative to Mr Trump and Mr Cruz.</p>
<p>&#8220;Jeb is having some kind of a breakdown, I think,&#8221; Mr Trump told CNN, calling Mr Bush, the son and brother of presidents, a spoiled child and an embarrassment to his family.</p>
<p>&#8220;I think it&#8217;s a very sad situation that&#8217;s taking place.&#8221;</p>
<p>The enmity was mutual. Vying for votes in Nashua, Mr Bush described Mr Trump variably as a loser, a liar, a whiner and the worst choice for president.</p>
<p>He attacked what he said was Mr Trump&#8217;s proclivity for &#8220;insulting women, castigating Hispanics, ridiculing the disabled and calling American PoWs losers&#8221;.</p>
<p>Mr Trump also had a shot at Mr Cruz during a massive rally in Manchester last night.</p>
<p>When an audience member shouted out an insult directed at Mr Cruz &#8211; a vulgar term for &#8220;coward&#8221; &#8211; Mr Trump repeated the term and jokingly reprimanded the woman.</p>
<p>Cruz spokesman Rick Tyler responded via email, saying: &#8220;Let&#8217;s not forget who whipped who in Iowa.&#8221;</p>
<p>Still, Mr Trump was running ahead in pre-primary polls, as was Mr Sanders on the Democratic side as candidates race to collect delegates for the parties&#8217; national nominating conventions in July.</p>

<p>Not so long ago, Republicans saw New Hampshire as the proving ground that would thin out their unwieldy field of candidates.</p>
<p>Mr Rubio&#8217;s surge into third place in Iowa a week ago raised the prospect that voters in New Hampshire would anoint him over Mr Bush, New Jersey governor Chris Christie and Ohio governor John Kasich.</p>
<p>Yet Mr Rubio faced fresh questions about his readiness and his ability to defeat the Democratic nominee after Saturday&#8217;s debate, when he was mocked for reciting rote talking points about President Barack Obama over and over.</p>
<p>Growing doubts about Mr Rubio seemed to portend a fight for delegates to the party&#8217;s national convention that could extend for weeks or months &#8211; to the dismay of Republican Party leaders hoping for a quick consolidation behind anyone but Mr Cruz or Mr Trump.</p>
<p><a href="http://londonglossy.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/bernieSandersBelieve_large.jpg" rel="attachment wp-att-85544"><img src="http://londonglossy.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/bernieSandersBelieve_large.jpg" alt="bernieSandersBelieve_large" width="600" height="325" class="alignleft size-full wp-image-85544" /></a></p>
<p>Democrats are already resigned to the likelihood of a protracted primary contest following Mr Sanders&#8217; strong performance in Iowa.<br />
Sensing Mr Rubio&#8217;s vulnerability, nearly everyone seemed to be on the attack.</p>
<p>Mr Bush&#8217;s campaign debuted a new advert questioning Mr Kasich&#8217;s conservative credentials, while an outside group backing Mr Rubio ran an ad assailing Mr Bush.</p>
<p>Mr Christie and Mr Bush both piled on Mr Rubio, claiming he had not been tested the way governors had.</p>
<p>In the week since Mrs Clinton eked out a win in the Iowa caucuses, her campaign has worked aggressively to lower expectations for New Hampshire, where Mr Sanders has maintained a sizeable lead despite Mrs Clinton&#8217;s victory there eight years ago against then Illinois senator Barack Obama.<br />
Mr Sanders, a Vermont senator, is well known to voters in neighbouring New Hampshire.</p>
<p>Wary of upsetting a race trending his way, Mr Sanders stuck to core campaign themes as he addressed cheering supporters in Nashua.</p>
<p>In recent days, Bill Clinton has accused some Sanders supporters of waging &#8220;sexist&#8221; attacks, and feminist Gloria Steinem and former secretary of state Madeleine Albright have criticised women who are not supporting Mrs Clinton.<br />
Yet Mr Sanders passed up all thatyesterday, instead telling supporters in Nashua: &#8220;We have come a long way in the last nine months.&#8221;</p>
<p>But his campaign did take issue with Mrs Clinton&#8217;s claim that Mr Sanders benefited from Wall Street money donated to Senate Democrats&#8217; campaign arm, with campaign manager Jeff Weaver arguing it &#8220;suggests the kind of disarray that the Clinton campaign finds itself in today&#8221;.</p>
