How big did Romney win in New Hampshire? His margin of 16.5 points over Ron Paul is bigger than George H.W. Bush's over Bob Dole in 1988. It's bigger than Dwight Eisenhower's over Taft in 1952. It's even bigger than incumbent President George H.W. Bush in 1992 over pesky insurgent Pat Buchanan. Former New Hampshire GOP chairman Fergus Cullen has the stats here.
