Commentary by Peter Burling? You can’t get anymore far left than Peter. He is an accomplished liar and not afraid to double down on his lies.
The GOP, party of RomneyCARE/ObamaCARE and gay marriage
and lying about it, will be shaped by Romney and Rove
as in everyone of the last three elections.
Why? For their partners, Soros and Obama.
GOP = GIVE OBAMA POWER
Name recognition.
That’s all it is—in ‘14, anyway.
Did Scott Walker make this list?
Kelly Ayotte 0
Scott Brown 0
Jeb Bush 50/50 (establishment/media favorite, could win in a crowded field where real republicans or conservatives split the votes)

Ted Cruz 75%
Bobby Jindal 25%
Rand Paul 75%
Marco Rubio 50/50 or less (he would have been a slam-dunk before siding with Schumer)
Paul Ryan a bit more than zero.
chance of winning the general election:
Kelly Ayotte 0

combine the moron vote, vote fraud and the mediawhores assassinating any R candidate, the demhole wins.
George W. Bush got 29% of the vote in the 2000 NH primary (and lost). I wrote a vanity in July 1999 about his appearance in my small town, which I wish was still available via the archives.
The essence of it was that he arrived at our town docks in a convoy of antique wooden speedboats, after spending the night on an island in Lake Winnipesaukee with some rich friends. He was escorted by an honor guard of country clubbers and real estate brokers wearing straw boaters and blue blazers. He gave a poor speech at the bandstand which, after a perfunctory nod to servicemen (and, of course, women) at the “tip of the spear” devolved into a laundry list of who would receive what benefits from his election, starting with “single moms”, who he described as “true heroes”. He promised that his government would track down all the bad men who had abandoned them, and would make them pay. He then went on to describe an outline of what became No Child Left Behind. I got to shake his hand, and to tell him that women initiate 70-80% of divorces, He had dead eyes.
He left his fake cowboy hat at home, I guess. Bushismo was never popular here, and I doubt that Bush III will do any better.
She has emerged as a powerful voice in the Senate and is often associated with other Senate leaders like John McCain and Lindsey Graham.

Death knell for Ayotte!!!
Rand Paul has walked a very interesting divide someplace between his fathers populist approach and one of a more pragmatic candidate.

Pragmatic defined: Kiss Mitch McConnell’s ass and endorse him instead of his Conservative opponent in the Primary, in hopes for political favors in the future.
I doubt if Christie or Jeb would pick Ayotte.
Ayotte could lose her Senate seat. Even Scott Brown could primary her from the right.
