Campaigning here in NH. The "town hall" style meeting seems to be most people’s favorite type of event. Generally, the audience questions are better than anything I’ve seen any of the TV debate "moderators" ask. We’ll discuss the rise of "canned" questions and the many issue advocacy groups "working" the crowd of attendees. What are their real motives? Is it simply to build a database of persons to be possibly mobilized at the approriate political moment? They all claim their "non-partisan". If that means Dem/GOP, maybe, but not as far as left/right goes.

Sen. Jim Talent, of the Romney camp comes back to MTNP for a second stint. We’ll talk illegal immigration and the brewing dustup between Mitt & Mayor Giuliani over the issue. Can it be a bad thing that finally, Republicans are debating with each other over who’s tougher on illegal immigration?
