Many on this this site, with few exceptions, have bashed Landrigan, Andy Smith, the UL corporation, NH Trad Med, the Hearsts etc., as maintaining an old outmoded idea of NH as a Republican bastion. Old ways die hard. I happened to read his column today to find out we are no longer a majority party. Blech.

Democrats poured money into races and watched it disappear
Kevin Landrigan
Cleaning house
State Democrats aren't waiting for official terms to end to assume their minority role.
The party's website got scrubbed last week, with reference to "N.H.'s majority party'' deleted and the smiling faces of still-sitting Congressmen Hodes and Carol Shea-Porter removed from their top right billing on the home page.

take the poll n/t (0.00 / 0)


for transparency sake ~I represent Union print shops

I voted a. (4.00 / 3)
But the rent is too damn high.

No tea; no decaf.

@DougLindner


b (4.00 / 2)
But with Doug's caveat.

The party of dead-beat dads has been given another (0.00 / 0)
chance.  Will they shape up or will it be their last?  "Fiscal responsibility" means "taking care of obligations."

Democrats need to change the frame.  That's doubly important because conservatives are mainly directed by what they see.  Whenever they see themselves in the press, they see it as a good thing.  And, being bi-polar, what conservatives see as good for them is seen as bad for the other side.  If they see themselves in pictures, they think they're winners.


R's don't govern (0.00 / 0)
they loot.  How's that for a frame?
