John Sununu’s ears must be bleeding. Yesterday Hot Air reported on the Sununu dig at Gingrich and what looks like a twenty year old grudge between them about Newt not supporting the Elder Bushes tax hike deal. (The one that cost him the oval office.) The problem is that by drawing attention to it, Sununu makes Newt look more conservative, with history putting Gingrich firmly on the proper side of the argument.
Meanwhile, New Hampshire is supposed to belong to Romney, and Governor Sununu has lined up all the right endorsements (including his own) to make sure it stays that way. But most of us know Kelly Ayotte will never be Romney’s pick for VP (if Mittens even gets the nomination) and that this is just more establishment chain-yanking and game playing to make sure the ‘right people’ get elected.
Sununu is all about that. Just ask Jack Kimball.
