“....Newman served as assistant secretary of Commerce for economic development in the Reagan administration. She was in charge of administrative operations for the George H.W. Bush White House.

She was chief of staff to Gregg when he was a congressman in the 1980s, and she was one of the first Republicans to publicly endorse Lynch in his 2004 challenge of then-Republican Governor Craig Benson, and co-chaired Republicans for Lynch.

Newman has also served in prestigious offices in higher education. She was an interim president at the University of New Hampshire and an executive dean at Harvard’s John F. Kennedy School of Government.

The consensus right now in New Hampshire, based on Governor Lynch’s past appointments, is that if ever he were to select a Republican to fill the seat, Newman would fit the mold.’

Used to work for Gregg.

Endorsed Lynch (D) for governor.

I’m guessing she’ll make Arlen Specter look like Barry Goldwater.

My tagline is such because I think the RINO name calling is overdone, but not in this case.

She has held a number of high-profile positions in higher education, including several important posts at the University of New Hampshire (including interim president) and executive dean of Harvard’s John F. Kennedy School of Government. She has also led the New Hampshire Business and Industry Association.”

J. Bonnie Newman, 63, was Sen. Judd Gregg’s chief of staff when he was in the U.S. House in the 1980s. She has a long resume in the private and public sectors, highlighted by her roles as assistant to the President for management and administration in the George H.W. Bush White House, an assistant commerce secretary in the Reagan administration, interim president of the University of New Hampshire and executive dean at the Harvard University’s Kennedy School of Government.

She should be asked her position on 2nd amendment rights. Chances are she is a Rino.
