The end of the year is the time for Top 10 Lists ad nauseum. Fortunately, there's nothing I like better than a good Top 10 list.
PolitickerNH has its own rundown of the top GOP and Dem rising stars to watch in 2009.
IMHO, I think it speaks volumes that over half of the Dem list is comprised of legislators and municipal leaders while three of the GOP "rising stars" lost their bids this cycle, and another three are staffers/party elders.
Nothing wrong with staff, mind you. But I think this is indicative of the great slate of candidates turned elected officials that we are sending to Concord and City Halls. Read: Dems have a better group of legislators and leaders to chose from.
Snaps to Dean for snagging the 9-spot:
9) Dean Barker: The editor of Blue Hampshire, Barker has built a progressive online community that is not afraid to criticize party leaders.
Thoughts on the respective lists? Omissions? Who else should we be watching?
