There are strikingly disimilar approaches toward their party conventions on the part of US Senate candidates Jeanne Shaheen and John Sununu.
Jeanne Shaheen not only is attending the convention in Denver, she is being showcased as a speaker. From the Globe:
Democratic challengers for US Senate seats in Maine and New Hampshire will speak next Wednesday on the third night of the national convention, organizers announced tonight.
Jeanne Shaheen, the former Granite State governor who is trying to oust Republican John Sununu, is on the speaker list, as is Tom Allen, who is trying to unseat Susan Collins. They will precede the vice presidential nominee.
Or, should we say, Senator* Where Is John E. Sununu?
Has he figured out whether he is attending the Republican National Convention? Whether he goes or not, we know he voted with Bush 90% of the time. We know he voted with his party against the minimum wage increase while voting to increase his own salary. We know he took oodles of donations from corrupt Ted Stevens' corrupt pals while doing nothing to stop their plundering of the federal treasury for their own corrupt schemes. Going all Hamlet on us the way he has the last few weeks on whether to go to the convention doesn't change anything.
It does not change the fact that whether he goes or stays, he has not represented New Hampshire's interests in the Senate.
