I have told Gen. Don Bolduc that his campaigning is FAR better than the last election cycle. Last night, he took it to a new level – complete domination. Maggi Hassan’s scowl said it all.
And Eviscerated is the word.
At each question, Bolduc had a ready quip that came from yet another plane/angle of attack for which she could only muster a shopworn pre-packaged answer while he continued to do the ‘non-political thing of saying “what, no answer to the question….again”?
He was remarkedly well prepared – off the cuff to boot. His numbers and facts flowed smoothly, and she couldn’t keep up. I’d call her responses “lame,” but I’d be accused of being “partisan” (well, if the shoe fits…heh!).
Gen. Bolduc has clearly adapted his Green Beret / Special Forces experience and leadership to the “war of politics.” And we can see that money isn’t always the determinate factor in a win/lose situation.
Hassan’s decision to not do public town halls and earlier debates were disastrous. Given the late date of last night’s debate, I wonder how many of the “undecideds” just made up their minds – and how many “squishy Democrats” just went “Hmmm.”
I’m betting that if someone does a snap poll, his NEW one-point advantage is going to grow.
