Sununu the Elder, New Hampshire's Very Own Big Papi

When FiveThirtyEight's Nat Silver writes about the National Republican Party, his words work just as well as a perfect description of my very favorite Zero-Population-Growth reject John Sununu the Elder:

Big Papi Sununu is nothing more than a grumpy, searching, direction-less, leadership-deficient, infighting naysayer offering no new ideas, too much feigned outrage, and opposition largely for opposition's sake - all as he steadily loses his grasp on the attentions and imaginations of New Hampshire voters...

don't do that (4.00 / 4)
Please don't use the name Big Papi when discussing John Sununu. I do not want to think about John sununu when watching my beloved BoSox.



"When you get to the end of your rope, tie a knot and hang on."  Franklin D. Roosevelt    


More like NH's own Manny Ramirez. (0.00 / 0)
You can roll your eyes and shake your head, or you can just shrug your shoulders and say, "That's just Sununu being Sununu."

(And robsprague, you should really include a link to the Nate Silver story.)
