While some contentious Senate primaries have resulted in lingering tension between Republicans, New Hampshire’s onetime GOP rivals appear to be making amends.

Attorney Ovide Lamontagne, who came within 1,667 votes of defeating former state Attorney General Kelly Ayotte in the GOP primary for Senate, is headlining a fundraiser for the new nominee next week. Ayotte will face Democratic Rep. Paul Hodes in November.

I believe Jane Norton has been campaigning for Ken Buck in Colorado as well.

Ironically, Ovide raised very little money during his own campaign.

Note the difference in behavior in a conservative who lost as opposed to a RINO like Castle or Murkowski.

Is he a great guy or what?
I sure wish him the best in all his future endeavors.

I think you meant Murkwski.

[SumProVita]

We need MORE of this!

[Redleg Duke]

Quite a difference from Alaska and Delaware, however, I understand that Castle finally called O’Donnell to congratulate her.

[onyx]

Indeed.

I am very proud of Ovide Lamontagne.

He is the mark of a great conservative.

Note the difference in behavior in a conservative who lost as opposed to a RINO like Castle, Crist or Murkowski.

Randita you said exactly the thought that was in my mind. I merely added Crist to the list.

[9YearLurker]

I’d like to see him voted in in ‘12.

[andy58-in-nh]

Character matters. ;-)

[onyx]

Absolutely.
He’d have no competition.

[onyx]

His generous actions are humbling.
Ovide Lamontagne has a wonderful future in politics.

[ScottinVA]

Thank you, Mr. Lamontagne!! Class act!

[GonzoGOP]

I think you meant Murkwski.

Madcowonskis?

Isn't it Moocowskee?

It’s Ovide’s birthday today. I sent him a note thanking him for his efforts, along with some of the kind comments people have made about him here on FR and to my email box regarding his candidacy.

[Past Your Eyes]

Let’s keep him in mind to run against Queen Jean the Abortion Machine.

[andy58-in-nh]

Let’s keep him in mind to run against Queen Jean the Abortion Machine.

Agreed. I wish we didn't have to wait so long.

however, I understand that Castle finally called O’Donnell to congratulate her.

Bad publicity has a tendency to work wonders.
