We’ve seen coalitions of locals forming up around the Republican Primary for US Senate. Jeanne-The-debt-Machine-Shaheen is retiring from politics about 18 years too late, and the GOP would like to pick up the seat. Scott Brown, who no right-minded conservative would have trusted previously as anything but another NRC stooge of choice, has become “the … Read more
New Hampshire is seeing the beginning of the end of the family dynasty called Sununu. It goes deep state. John H. Sununu, the 75th Governor of New Hampshire from 1983-1989 and 14th White House chief of staff under President H.W. Bush from 1989-1991; John E. Sununu, U.S. Representative from 1997-2003 and U.S. Senator from 2003-2009; Chris Sununu, 82nd Governor of … Read more
[re: Patrick Hynes (Sununu can deliver GOP seat in the Senate, Union Leader, October 25)] John E. Sununu is the epitome of the Washington elite. I don’t care how many long-term Senators in D.C. have endorsed Sununu, some of whom are members of a particular bureaucratic institution known as “the swamp”. They stick like glue … Read more
Scott Brown and John E. Sununu have something in common. They both appear to be deeply despised by factions of the eclectic New Hampshire Republican Party. More specifically, the libertarians who choose to run as Republicans (“Liberty Reps”) despise Brown, while MAGA-Republicans (populists) despise Sununu. Here is what a libertarian-influencer thinks of former Senator Brown: … Read more
‘Grok contributor Julie Smith wrote an opinion piece last week in which she endorsed Scott Brown in New Hampshire’s increasingly crowded US Senate Republican primary. The giveaway that it was her endorsement was that the headline began with ‘SMITH’ followed by the words “I Am Supporting Scott Brown and So Should You.” In the event … Read more
Before anyone tells me how unimportant my input is or reminds me of my previous article supporting Dan Innis, there are some things to consider. Let’s start by remembering that a federal senatorial race is a statewide election. Unlike a presidential election, only NH voters get to vote (lawfully and in theory), which makes it … Read more
John Sununu lost that US Senate Seat to retiring US Senator Jeanne Shaheen. John Sununu is considering a run, which means he’s running.
Scott Brown has a primary challenger in the race to replace retiring train wreck Jeanne Shaheen. New Hampshire State Senator Dan Innis has announced that he is running for the U.S. Senate. Bradford, New Hampshire — Dan Innis, a proud father, beef farmer, and proven conservative State Senator, announced his campaign for the United States Senate … Read more
Sometime in the spring of 2022, while Senator Giuda was sitting with us in the dining room, he said, “General Bolduc can’t beat Maggie Hassan.” Before his prognostication was proven correct, my first thought was “let’s address the reasons for him saying that.” I never got into the weeds of it, which was likely due … Read more
Try not to act too surprised. The guy we all said was the GOP Establishment’s preferred candidate to replace the departing Jeanne Shaheen before she announced her retirement has announced he’s doing what we all said he would. Ambassador Scott Brown is running for the open US Senate Seat in New Hampshire. This is like … Read more
Jeanne “The National Debt Machine” Shaheen is up for reelection in 2026, which means a few things. First, it will be used by the proglodytes to funnel obscene amounts of money into the state to help Dems up and down the ticket. Lots of television and radio. All the usual ridiculous lies. Republicans need to … Read more
A week or so ago at a rainy day gathering in Salem, New Hampshire, it was quite instructive to listen to the speeches of two declared candidates for the Republican nomination for US Senate, seeking to unseat Senator Jeanne Shaheen; as well as a non-speech by a then-undeclared candidate for the same office (who has … Read more
Not a freaking clue:
Wow – just wow. RRftSotRP (Republican Republican for the Sake of the Rebin big steaming piles on this one. The writer is obviously upset in that there is not total agreement with NH GOP Party anointed candidates. The overriding message is exemplified by this:

Er, no, I’m not. Not that from the writer. Nor should you.
Scott Brown, Kelly Ayotte, Walt Haverstein; remember them?
Sometimes, Steve buries the really good stuff at the bottom of his posts – let me haul a good nibblet from his latest post up from the deep (emphasis mine):
So, after Gov. Sununu signs HB1319, which we hear he has promised the local actors for the DC special interest that he intends to do, don’t be surprised when the Republican base and NH Trump voters (most of whom are probably independents) tell Republicans up and down the ticket to go to hell.
Don’t be surprised because you asked, were warned that this would happen, and you ignored the warnings anyway.
At a meeting that nobody went to because it never existed, he and his minions were warned by a number of the extremely influential “influencers” (who weren’t there because there was no meeting) that in no uncertain terms that this WAS a hill THEY were willing to die against. He and his minions were warned – DON’T! These were some of the most vocal, respected, and Trusted voices on the Right here in NH. Has he, and his “Smartest Political People In The Room” minions,
Kelly Ayotte, Scott Brown, Walt Haverstein – the ‘Grok DOES have a proven track record against those that promote the Democrat Agenda in any way, touts that they were bipartisan to the extent of voting more with Democrats than Republicans, or dissing the TEA Party. You can throw in the GOP Platform Principles and both Constitutions into that mix. There are lesser luminaries as well along the way.
Who is next, I wonder, I wonder?
Did you now Scott Brown can’t change a tire? We also ponder the irony of Governor John Sununu’s book on George Bush I, there’s news about Bill O’Brien’s new job. Then it’s on to the driving records of spouses of presidential primary candidates, and whether it would be racist and or sexist to bring it … Read more
I’m having an Irony and hypocrisy overload. Where to start? Did you hear the one about Massachusetts Democrat Elizabeth Warren…?
Warren represented not just Travelers, but numerous other companies starting in the late 1990s working out of and using her Harvard Law School office in Cambridge, which she listed as her office of record on briefs filed with various courts. Warren, however, never has been licensed to practice law in Massachusetts.
Sounds bad and may she burn in that special hell reserved for such scoundrels, but that’s not even where I’m going with this. (See the picture for a hint…)
…can it still be called a “negative” ad? Like this one? I don’t think so.
