Sen. Joseph Lieberman and wife,
Hadassah, in New Hampshire.

they have the chance to win at least one
state outright Feb. 3 — when South
Carolina, New Mexico, North Dakota,
Missouri and Delaware also vote.
Lieberman currently is leading in the
polls in Delaware.
Lieberman pitched a positive spin on
the New Hampshire finish Tuesday,
claiming he was in a three-way
tie for third place. Lieberman had cam-
paigned heavily in New Hampshire,
which has 10,000 Jews, choosing to
skip the Iowa caucus and even renting
an apartment in the New Hampshire's
largest city, where he watched the
returns Tuesday.
Lieberman was furious with his
treatment in the media. Several media
outlets— including the New York Times
and USA Today — characterized New
Hampshire as a four-person race, run-
ning front-page photos of the
other four major contenders, without
Lieberman.
"Today the people of New
Hampshire put me in the ring, and
that's where we're going to stay."
For several months, the seven presi-
dential candidates have focused their
attention in large part on the Jews who
backed Lieberman insisted their shared
religion was not a factor. "It has noth-
ing to do with the fact that he's
Jewish," said Moshe Shpindler, a
restaurateur in Manchester who was
born in Israel. "He's really straightfor-
ward and honest."
On the Saturday before the primary
in Manchester, Shpindler prayed with
Lieberman at the home of Manchester's
Lubavitch rabbi.
Adam Solendar, executive director of
the Jewish Federation for Greater
Manchester, said Tuesday that he had
spoken to several Jews who went into
the voting booth planning to pick either
Dean or Kerry, but then cast their ballot
for Lieberman. Solendar said they all
decided in the end that they should not
exclude Lieberman because he was
Jewish, and they determined his views
were the closest to theirs. I
