America from the founding The essence of our republic has been self-restraint toward fellow citizens. “My right to swing my fist ends where your nose begins…” was an Abraham Lincoln quote. We have respected each other as equals. The U.S. Constitution was our philosophical and theoretical framework. Under its words and by its laws, Americans …
I wondered what Jennifer Horn would do as I wrote this; now we know – the non-silent silent answer. She did not “Choose Well”. The Press Release, which went out this morning, is after the jump. This is my Letter just sent: Dear Jennifer (NH GOP Chair), Right you are concerning the proposed gas – …

As a Blogger I am encouraged by the calls for unity from the NH-GOP leadership. But I do not believe they have a clue about how to get there from here. And blaming bloggers is clearly not the answer. In fact, it is exactly the opposite of “the answer.” I make that quite clear in …
Greg Carson has a very impressive resume, one which makes him more than qualified to serve as the Republican Party Secretary. He has already served several years as the assistant secretary, the job I endorsed Pam Manney for yesterday.
I would like to give a personal endorsement for Assistant Secretary for the New Hampshire Republican Party to Pamela Manney. Ive known Pam for several years now, and worked along side her as an activist. She has a level of commitment and dedication to the party and the platform that make her an exceptional asset.

You can just tell when you have a winner. It becomes more important for your opponents to smear your candidate than to promote theirs. It’s all about scare tactics. The noise machine. The echo chamber. Creating a narrative. And the media and the career party folks all seem like they are on the same side frantically offering doomsday scenarios.
As for “bringing the party together,” it is not a notion in a vacuum nor desirable if the product moves us in the wrong direction. Unity, more often than not, is the product of a force of nature whose clarity about the goal or mission is so clear that people gather round to listen and then feel compelled to act. Julianna Bergeron may be faithful and competent from the perspective of a party insider, but so is a good accountant. That does not make them capable of leading and inspiring a movement.
Plenty of people who think they are quite attuned to the echo chamber are spending a good deal of time doing the progressives and RINO’s dirty work. These are people on the right, so-called insiders who get how the game is played. Yet again (and again) I find the chorus repeating the message which the …
