Q: Are John Stephen's Chances Are Slim at Best?

A: This is easy to see, thanks to the Union Leader devoting it's front page real estate to a big font notice of the latest Rasmussen poll (I saw it at the check-out counter at the grocery store).

Rasmussen, which is to polls what FAUX News is to actual journalism.

Meanwhile, the most recent poll in the Land of Reality shows John Lynch with a commanding lead.

Q: Are John Stephen's Chances Are Slim at Best? | 8 comments
Yes (4.00 / 8)
I have a better chance of winning the Mr. Congeniality Award at the Blue Hampshire Pageant than Stephen does of defeating John Lynch in November.
Someone reading the UL mentioned this to me this morning. (4.00 / 2)
Having not seen the article yet myself, I responded: "Was it a Rasmussen poll?"

John Lynch Needs To Run His Campaign... (4.00 / 2)
...as if he's ten votes behind.  That's how he'll win.  He's our best foot forward, and if there is any momentum to the Republicans, he's the one who can stop it.  He's already shown during the past several weeks he's up for the fight.  

Statewide, we have to emphasize local issues -- State Representatives have to talk about their communities, not Concord or the State House; our national candidates have to talk about New Hampshire and our people, not defend -- nor bash -- Washington.  

Someone said, "All politics is local."  I think it was even the title of a book.  It's certainly a strategy to victory for the Democrats this year.  

YES! (4.00 / 1)


Have you told a stranger today about Bill O'Brien and his Tea Party agenda? The people of NH deserve to hear about O'Brien  and his majority committed to destroying New Hampshire and remaking it into a armed survivalist preserve.

Locavore story - (4.00 / 4)
My wife and I were dining out. She ordered a salad and, consulting the menu, specified the local Italian dressing. Support your local farmer, etc.

The waiter looked at the menu and explained that this was the Lo-Cal Italian dressing.

Rasmussen (4.00 / 1)
When I heard John Stephen was 'within the margin of error' on Rasmussen, I immediately thought, "Wow! He's doing even worse that I thought! He's down 2 points among Republicans!"
hello 5000! (0.00 / 0)
welcome
