"New Hampshire Democrats must keep their eyes on the prize - winning
back the White House in 2004. There is a very strong Democratic field,
and each candidate has much to offer our country, but John Kerry is the
only candidate with the domestic and foreign policy experience and qualifications
who can mount a national campaign to unite Americans and go toe-to-toe
with
George Bush, and who is ready to govern the country," said Calegari.
