Once again, Douglas Lambert has fallen off the Political High Wire Act that has always been his downfall. His hubris has caused him to believe, again (like the Ray Buckley incident) that he was politically invulnerable and impervious to any reaction.

Yeah, Gregg Hough still hasn’t learned the shovel/hole admonition.

October 15, 2022 Skip

He just keeps angering a whole bunch of folks in the Republican arena lately – unforced errors. I put a short list together here: Gov.

Well, I think is the end of this particular running saga – but politics is not rational. To recap, soon-to-be former Rep.

Still catching up. TMEW developed shingles on Thursday. For the third time. After getting the Shingrex vaccine. Twice.

And the Grandson got sick at the same time. So, I had to play both nursemaid and homemaker over the weekend and fell behind on ‘Grok stuff. A LOT of it. Including processing this video of the meeting.

My Response to Laconia’s NH State Rep Gregg Hough’s Allegations To Have the BCRC throw GraniteGrok out of their meetings

August 28, 2022 Skip

In my post a couple of days ago (“Laconia State Rep Gregg Hough: With All His Other Political Enemies, He’s Decided to Anger GraniteGrok, too?“), I presented his allegations to the Belknap County Republican Committee as to why its Executive Committee (e.g., Chair, Vice-Chair, Treasurer, Secretary (who was absent from the hearing), and At-Large member) … Read more

Belknap County Republican Committee – Candidate Speaker: Thad Riley (NH Governor)

July 17, 2022 Skip

We ARE in the silly time of an election year. While normal people are still doing the “summer things”, candidates are appealing to both the politically obsessed (who have been watching for a while) and those that are starting to look at both the Primary and General elections and asking “Whom”? Thus, the Republican candidates … Read more

I haven’t done much to capture candidates across the State this cycle. For the most part, I’ve let them come to me (not going out as much with a young family in the form of the Grandson). But last night?
