Carol Cohen, 51, who works in sales in Bow, had been solid for Edwards after hearing him in Concord on Saturday. Then she saw the news last night.
"Watching her let her strong facade crack last night on the news, and actually show how personally committed she is, was a turning point for me. When I got in the booth I spent a long time thinking about it, and I went for Hillary."
Sarah Peteraf, 20, a college student from Hanover, cast an absentee ballot Monday for Obama, hoping to help prevent Clinton from winning. "Basically the race was a little too tight between Obama and Hillary to vote for Edwards right now," she said, "despite my alignment with Edwards policies."
Sharon Smith, a social worker from Rye, was impressed when she saw Obama in Exeter, but that night she watched the cable news and also decided that she was more comfortable with Clinton's experience.
"I don't know who Obama's people are. I know Hillary will choose good people to be with her," she said. "I was concerned about what he's going to do when the speeches are over."

MANCHESTER -- Rudy Giuliani, getting out of town quick after his phoned-in New Hampshire bid left him fighting Ron Paul for fourth place, just had his "rally" with a hundred or so supporters in the Radisson Hotel. Ten middle-age white men stood behind the former New York mayor as he vowed to win his party's nomination. He said he's heading to Florida and will announce dramatic new proposals.
"This race is a wide-open race!" he said.
He noted that he has been tested by crises in the past, and then he came up with a novel spin on his weak finish.
"Maybe we've lulled our opponents into a false sense of confidence now."
