I’m in NH, and there is no way Romney is getting my vote. And Huntsman might as well be on the Democrat side.
When this was posted on National Review Online, I posted a comment that we didn’t need a small NE state with too many yuppies trying to force a liberal former Mass Gov or a democrat who got lost on the way to the primary on the rest of the GOP.
Well, actually I tired to post it. Since it hasn’t appeared 12 hours later, I’m guessing the NE liberal yuppies of National Review decided my comments were too radical...
Stand firm CASchack! You are not alone!

Gov. Mitt Romney announced he had gained the support of nine state representatives last week.
“Gov. Perry has the strongest record of any candidate in the race of creating an environment ripe for job growth. While Obama has raised taxes and uncertainty, Gov. Perry has balanced budgets, signed aggressive tort reform, and worked to keep job-killing burdens off of employers,” said Rep. Dick Hinch (R-Merrimack), a former supporter of Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty. “Granite Staters know the country is on the wrong track. We need a candidate whose record can contrast clearly with the president’s, and Gov. Perry’s record of leadership can put America on the right track and Americans back to work.”
These endorsements follow previous announcements of support for Gov. Perry by former U.S. Senator Gordon Humphrey; former U.S. Congressman Chuck Douglas; and 2010 GOP Gubernatorial nominee John Stephen.
