Brown’s RINO-ness notwithstanding, this would be a nice “get,” if he can pull it off.

Yes, he is a huge RINO, but did vote occasionally with the Repubs. I know most of us prefer conservative candidates, but gosh dang it - a RINO is the best we can do in the NE states. Sad, but true. And, in these cases, I don’t believe a lib is better than a RINO. (ducks from the rotten eggs being thrown).

Yup, especially on amnesty. Has pictures of them on stage, together, laughing, hugging. Whole nine yards.

Brown hasn’t even won the primary yet. Once he does, he will be ahead.

He was with us on Obamacare and if he’s with us on Amnesty, then I don’t really care much about the rest - I’ll take what we can get. Certainly an improvement over the Rubber-Stamp.

Agree. This upcoming election is about getting control of the Senate Gavel. My advice to NH Conservatives and Libertarians is to hold your nose and vote for Brown.

MEMO TO NH VOTERS:

<><> Ask Shaheen when Obama is dropping by to campaign for her (cackle).

<><> Ask Shaheen why she voted to subsidize O/Care by decimating Medicare Advantage for seniors.

<><> Ask Shaheen why the White House calculatedly kept the gruesome details to itself while egging on loyal lock-stepping Democrats to vote for O/Care.

<><> Ask Shaheen why the WH lied to Americans in a way so specific, it showed they knew exactly what to spin and how......via the infamous "If you like your health-care plan, you can keep your health-care plan, period."

<><> Ask Shaheen after she voted for it why she carried on for the next three years making believe she'd actually read the ACA bill and pretending she understood its implications.

<><> Ask Shaheen why she was so surprised by grassroots complaints about O/Care from her constituents.

<><> Ask Shaheen why she treats voters as if they just fall off a turnip truck.

==============================================

SHAHEEN RECEPIENT OF COVETED "OBAMA RUBBER STAMP AWARD"

STROLL DOWN MEMORY LANE As far back as 2008, at the presidential debate in Nashville, Democrat candidate Obama advanced his signature healthcare plan---ultimately enacted, by an historic straight Democrat party-line vote, into the "Affordable Care Act"

QUOTING 2008 OBAMA: "No. 1, let me just repeat, if you’ve got a health care plan that you like, you can keep it. All I’m going to do is help you to lower the premiums on it. You’ll still have choice of doctor.” Repeated over and over ---- with the promise that every American family would be saving $2500.00 on healthcare costs.

Significantly, Obamba NEVER corrected lock-stepping Democrats, all reading from the same Democrat talking points, all of them repeating the same Democrat promises---over and over again.

LOCK-STEPPING PARTY LOYALTY NOT SEEN SINCE 1930-40's ERA EUROPE Obama And The Dems marched in lockstep. The persistent Dumbocrat drumbeat ---- in obeisance to Obama ---- kept ringing reassuringly in our ears: "If you like your plan, you can keep your plan."

SEN. JEANNE SHAHEEN (D-N.H.): ‘if you have health coverage that you like, you get to keep it’ “My understanding … is that … if you have health coverage that you like you can keep it. As I said, you may have missed my remarks at the beginning of the call, but one of the things I that I said as a requirement that I have for supporting a Democrat bill is that if you have health coverage that you like you should be able to keep that. …under every scenario that I’ve seen, if you have health coverage that you like, you get to keep it.” (Sen. Shaheen, “Health Care Questions From Across New Hampshire,” Accessed 11/13/13)

It’s NH, which isn’t much into “Live Free or Die” thing anymore. RINO is all you’re going to get there.

You are kidding, I totally didn’t know that. When is the primary? I suppose it is a foregone conclusion that he will win that, no?

Keep in mind the WH ding-s-ling ran as a "Conservative"---said he wanted to be "another Reagan". This conniving strategy was crafted by Chicagoland criminal kingpin--Rahm Emanuel.

2014 DUMMYCRATS DUPE VOTERS (locksteppers salue smartly)

Breitbart.com reports that b/c of an increasingly hostile political landscape, Democrats are resorting to whining---asking voters to believe they have suddenly "seen the light" and are now conservatives.

In districts across the country, Democrats are campaigning as "true believers' in tax cuts, balanced budgets and for rolling back big government's harmful regulations.

They're even bleating about guns, fracking and coal....trying to appeal to the conservative heartland.

The list of Democrats carving out more conservative positions is too lengthy to mention. In fact, breitbart.com reports, it would be noteworthy to find any Democrat in a competitive election running on the platform espoused by the DNC, Harry Reid or Nancy Pelosi.

So you hafta ask: what is the point of the national Democrat party if individual candidates have to separate themselves from it when facing actual voters. As conservatives have always observed, Dummycratism is not Ieven a coherent party....just a collection of hyphenates.....and expedient alliances of special interest groups.

This is an old Dummycrat trick---from the conniving shallow mind of Chicago-land kingpins of political crime. Obama suck-up Rahm Emanuel actually dreamed up the con.

As you may recall, the Democrat wave in 2006 was fueled, in large part, by public weariness with the Iraq War and opportunistic Dummycrats pilingon GWB.

Naturally, the drive-by media failed to report that this con game was the aggressiveness of then-Cong Rahm Emanuel to recruit moderate and conservative Democrats to run for office.

This devious strategy worked so well---- that before the GOP landslide in 2010, 54 members of the House Democrat caucus were conservative "blue dog democrats."

With only 14 "blue dogs" now serving in Congress, this mythical creature has all but disappeared from the political landscape. With support for Obama and his policies nearing record lows, Democrats in Congress are again trying to pull off this trick.

CONCLUSION: Stupid Dummycrats can run wearing Reagan masks, for all that matters----the prog/nitwit in the WH keeps reminding voters about the Dummycrat-fashioned disaster that has befallen our beloved country.

He won’t be with us on amnesty. if he says he will be, he’s lying. After all he’s the scumbag who says the GOP needs to be more tolerant and inclusive of gay marriage and abortion.

I agree {as I also duck} in fact, there is a very large difference between dingy harry and the turtle, and while I don't like him very much, I'll take the turtle.
