I'm sure we're going to hear more things like this as autumn continues.

Granite State Nail-Biter
   
MANCHESTER, N.H. -- When Sen. Charles Schumer of New York, the chairman of the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee, lists the November races that will swell his party's majority, New Hampshire is one of the first he brags about.

Here on the ground, it looks a lot less certain that Democrat Jeanne Shaheen will cut short the promising career of Sen. John Sununu, namesake son of a White House chief of staff under the first President Bush.

Shaheen, a former governor who lost a close race to Sununu six years ago in an environment much more hospitable to Republicans, was a double-digit favorite early this year when she heeded supporters' pleas and left a Harvard administrative job to test Sununu again. But last weekend, as she and Sununu marched with their supporters in the Londonderry parade and then hobnobbed with voters at the Greekfest here, Shaheen acknowledged that things have changed.

For the record, the carpetbagging maternal ancestress of the Bostonian Drunkard, "Raven," is a big supporter of the Democrat candidate in this race.

What I see is that she is not going to win her Senate race against sununu plus Obama won't give her any help because she supported Hillary Clinton.

Between her and the GOP FINALLY getting some stones in this state and running some candidates against moonbats Che-Porter and Hodes, she's not going to like what happens November 4th.

No, Sununu won't win by much (and Gregg will likely lose in 2010), but trust me on this one kids--after two years of seeing what the Dems did to this state in just ONE election cycle has been enough to get a lot of my neighbors and folks I talk to up in arms and back into the voting booth to throw out the Dems.

I thought Shaheen had been the Lt. Gov in Mass?

How did she get into the fight in N.H.?

Queen Jeanne the Spending Machine was formerly NH governor from 1997-2003.  Ask anyone in Seabrook how much they love her and you might get your ass kicked.  (Think utility deregulation.)

Ahhh ok.  Gotcha.

I was up there last year.  That place is pretty country up there...even for a boy from the south like me.

Too bad there's all those Libtards up there messing it up.
