Good Tuesday morning. I'm Anna Palmer and welcome to your Politico Playbook audio briefing.

0:09.4

And I'm Jake Sherman on the ground here in New Hampshire for the New Hampshire primary.

0:12.7

I wrapped up Monday in Milford, New Hampshire, at a Pete Buttigieg rally at the Hampshire Hills Athletic Club.

0:18.4

Longtime Pete Watchers said it was smaller than his usual crowds.

0:22.2

A few highlights. He said Donald Trump says he's for the forgotten man, but, quote, he seems to have forgotten most of us.

1:17.1

campaign that it's difficult to have any sort of useful commentary on it. What we do know is he's

spending piles of money and it's having impact. He's climbing in the polls and gaining relevance.

1:28.6

Everywhere we go, that question is asked. How much impact will Bloomberg have? It will be very

1:33.9

interesting to see how he handles his appearance tomorrow in Tennessee, where he will make

1:38.1
