Out of the Mouths of Ensigns and Enzis

National Republican Senate Committee Chair John Ensign admits what we all know to be true:
As far as incumbents are concerned, I think John Sununu is going to have the most challenging race...

But then he goes and admits something we all in New Hampshire know to be true:

They're [Granite Staters] not really Republican, they're very, a freedom type of orientation there.

You're right, Senator Ensign.  We're not really Republican up here - we are very much into the whole "freedom type" of thing here.  Not so much Bush and his gang of Republican enablers like John E.

On to Wyoming Senator Mike Enzi.  How does he feel to be passed up for a seat on the finance committee so that John E. can huff and puff and look important right before election time?

"Sure. I'm pissed."
I can sympathize with him.  I know how disheartening it is when a co-worker gets a promotion because of failing upwards.

If only Sununu's convenient committee appointments could be passed on to a new Senator from New Hampshire on 1/4/09... (0.00 / 0)

Yes, but it's of little value at this point.
No; it distracts us from state-wide issues.
