If you have been following the NHGOP-establishment-lane of the U.S. Senate primary, you know that the race is between the “603 Way” and the “new generation”:
The problem … for me at least … was that neither Chucky nor Kev were explaining what the “603 Way” and the “new generation” actually means.
But thanks to Frances Erlebacher we now know what the “603 Way” means. And if you guessed “local control” or “no income tax” or “live free or die” … boy were you wrong. What the “603 Way” actually means is bringing back as much PORK from Washington DC as possible, as Erlebacher recently explained:
The Q&A portion arrives and still we don’t know what his issue is with the unpopular Hassan, or what he means by bringing “the 603 to DC.”
Then, responding to a question, Morse finally explains his beef: Maggie hasn’t brought in enough pork! New Hampshire got the smallest goody bag from the 2021 infrastructure deal, so why is Hassan bragging about it? …
A resident asks about the Executive Council’s buckling to pressure to accept federal funds to push COVID shots and establish a privacy-busting vaccine database in New Hampshire. Morse shrugs as if the answer is self-evident: “The State of New Hampshire lives on federal money,” he says. He doesn’t get why the audience is surprised, much less horrified.
So one-half of the mystery has been solved. That just leaves the “new generation.”
Perhaps the term “new generation” is Kev’s oblique way of pointing out that Chuck appears to be about 20 years older than his actual age? Or perhaps what Kev means by “new generation” is that he knows that TikTok is social media, while Chucky thinks TikTok is a synonym for wristwatch?
Or perhaps the term has nothing at all to do with Chucky and what Kev means by “new generation” is that he will bring back more PORK from DC than Mags Hassan?
