Hillary in New Hampshire for town meetings
http://www.ibtimes.com/hillary-clinton-new-hampshire-town-hall-live-stream-economic-plan-be-touted-2242706Hillary Clinton spoke Tuesday afternoon to a packed house at a town hall meeting in Portsmouth, New Hampshire, finishing her next-to-last public campaign event of 2015. Later in the day she was scheduled to deliver another address in the Granite State before taking a few days off from the campaign trail.
During her Portsmouth event, she emphasized her plan to focus efforts on Alzheimer’s research -- a proposal she unveiled last week -- and took several questions from the crowd that largely focused on other issues she frequently discusses, such as gun control, college debt and improving the economy.
“The decision that New Hampshire makes is so important and I’ve had a great time traveling across the state, meeting by now thousands and thousands of people,” she said in her opening remarks. “I know that we are going to make the right decision not because my name will be on the ballot but because all of us know what the stakes are and how high they happen to be.”

Clinton tells the crowd - NH is the first or last line of defense, depending on how you define it.

A man told @HillaryClinton that she eliminates doubt for him. Her experience, her knowledge, all of it.
You and me both, sir. #HillaryInNH
