Donald Trump, Marco Rubio, Ted Cruz, and Chris Christie all could emerge from the New Hampshire primary with some degree of momentum in the race for the 2016 Republican presidential nomination. That’s the assessment from Fred Barnes, executive editor of the Weekly Standard and political commentator for Fox News.
Barnes handicapped the 2016 race and shared highlights from his new biography of former congressman and supply-side tax champion Jack Kemp during a Headliner luncheon speech Tuesday for the John Locke Foundation. He also addressed the upcoming political fight on Capitol Hill over Syrian refugees.
