NEW HAMPSHIRE POLL – AT 10:09 A.M. ET:  Marco Rubio is showing some movement in the New Hampshire primary race.  The primary is Tuesday.  Even if Rubio doesn't catch Trump, if he surges over the weekend the focus will be more intently on him, like the horse in the Kentucky Derby who races from behind to win in the end.  From WHDH:

MANCHESTER, N.H. (WHDH) - It's not an earthquake, yet...But the political ground in New Hampshire is moving....

...Donald Trump stays in first, with 36%; Rubio takes over second place, with 15%. Ted Cruz, now in third, has 14%. Jeb Bush, 8%; and John Kasich 7%.

For the rest of the Republicans: Chris Christie, 5 %, Ben Carson, 4%; Carly Fiorina 3% and undecided 8%.

Our tracking poll show it all: Trump on top, but down two points – the first time he's dropped in our poll.

Jeb Bush lost a point; no change for John Kasich.

In the Democratic race, Hillary Clinton can start thinking about a comeback, and Bernie Sanders is coming down.

Sanders still has a significant lead over Clinton – 58% to 36% – a 22 point margin.

But look at the direction of the tracks: Sanders is down three and Clinton is up four, our biggest single gain since we started this poll.

COMMENT:  Five days to go.   They may be the most critical five days in the presidential races thus far.
