John Edwards heads to New Hampshire ahead of Hillary Clinton and closing in on Barack Obama

Tonight really was a victory for change. Edwards finished second, despite being heavily outspent and largely ignored by the mainstream media.

He heads to New Hampshire with momentum. Obama, who depended on Republican women and independent men for his victory will run into a problem in New Hampshire, where John McCain is resurgent. Because of Mike Huckabee's victory, Mitt Romney has lost momentum.

John McCain is the new flavor of the day, and he'll pull Obama supporters. Meanwhile, Hillary Clinton is going to go nuclear on Obama.

While Clinton and Obama fight it out, Edwards simply needs to continue with his message about the need to stand up to powerful interests and take back our country.

Here's his speech from tonight:
