Forget the NASCAR dads, the youth vote and even the unions--in New Hampshire, the soccer moms may still get the deciding vote.

A new Boston Herald poll of likely Democratic primary voters shows that, by a nearly two-to one margin the 19 percent still undecided are women--many middle age with above-average income.

And in this campaign, these women are going to choose candidates based not on their position on the war or their foreign policy exploits, but on bread-and-butter domestic issues like health care, the poll found.

overall Dean leads Clark 29-20, but "the poll may hold good news for front-runner Howard Dean. Dean is strongest with women voters, beating Wesley Clark by a 31-14 percent margin compared to the 9-point gap among all voters."

Women are 2-1 undecided and will be deciding their votes on healthcare seems to indicate that Dean could soon be on the rebound.
