New Hampshire has been getting bluer and bluer thanks to Governor Sun-King, who … in a nutshell … believes that the future of the GOP is being every bit as woke and authoritarian as the Democrats while shifting the tax burden from businesses and the wealthy to working people. Presumably in 2024, our self-absorbed, self-promoting Sun-King rides off to be a “contributor” on CNN or MSNBC and fill a seat on the Board-of-Directors of some woke corporations … in other words, he cashes in.
So who replaces him? I think it is safe to say that Chris Pappas runs for the Democrats. Is there a single Republican who can beat him? NOPE. Oh the NHGOP grifter-establishment will push Chucky Morse … you remember him …. the “quality candidate” who couldn’t even win his primary. And Chucky, assuming he is the nominee, will get crushed by Pappas.
Chucky’s only chance of being elected Governor was in the 2022 midterms … against the extremist Dr. Death Tom Sherman … but that required Lord Sun-King to run for the U.S. Senate, which Lord Sun-King was too lazy and scared to do.
There is no NHGOP bench. Lord Sun-King’s embrace of everything woke has NOT grown the Party. It has shrunk the Party. Lord Sun-King is the antithesis of Governor DeSantis, who has made Florida solidly Red.
I know what the comments will say: EDELBLUT! … EDELBLUT! …. EDELBUT! Dream on. Not a chance against Pappas. Edleblut has never won a race higher than State Representative and he stuck like Gorilla-Glue with Lord Sun-King Sununu through the worst of Sununu’s COVID-excesses. The gubernatorial election is not going to turn on “Education Freedom Accounts.”
So get ready for New Hampshire to take on an even deeper shade of blue beginning in 2024. And thank Sun-King Sununu for that.
