The endorsement is [ Read more ]

Talking? Shouldn’t you ask your Boss about “talking” to people first?

December 11, 2012

It seemed semi-coincidental that after I put up the posts on the NH GOP E-Board angst (I and II, with a side dish here) that I had a tweet sent my way by Kerry Marsh: My take is that both Jim Foley and Steve Duprey DID their talking (in either a series of emails to [ Read more ]

Would You Rather Just Play Politics?

January 29, 2011

Yesterday NHBR.com (New Hampshire Business Review) included GraniteGrok in its content. One of it’s staff writers or editors (there is no by-line) commented on how the GOP establishment was not the only one taking shots from their right.
