Right off the top, let me make it clear that 1) I’m an Independent, 2) I think Stepanek is right in demanding, in NE Patriot parlance, “do your job” from those that actively sought election to the NH GOP Committee (delegates and members both).

Well, we did cover the NH GOP Convention where both a new Chair and Vice-Chair were chosen: Steve Stepanek and Pam Tucker. Did an interview with Steve at the end of that gathering and my take away was that things were going to be different. Given that I’m on most political email distros in the …
There’s a Frontpage article in the Manchester Union Leader today about Keno. The focus is House Bill 390 (HB390). This legislation would lower commissions on Keno Machines from 8% to 5%.

Given that one was Laurie Melanson (Superintendent SAU 23/Haverhill and with whom I had a light “jousting match” before the meeting). SideNote: She made it clear that she felt that …

But here’s a quick and easy way to explain to friends and family why it’s all just a bunch of left-wing hooey. Are corporations – which are just a bunch of people working collectively toward a shared interest- subject …
“Nothing’s Free” is not a phrase in the budgetary lexicon of progressive liberal Democrats. We know this because they are constantly talking about Government-run programs to provide “social infrastructure” to the masses. The latest “free” goodies to hit the narrative mill are Free College and Medicare for all. Medicare for all is single-payer healthcare. College …

Democrats squeal like greased pigs about money in politics, but this chart makes them smile. Democrat congressional incumbent Ann(ie) Kuster has nearly three million cash on hand.
