If there was no 17th A then there would be ZERO chance of ever getting any type of GOP senator from a deep blue state, like yours or mine.
Not that there are going to be any elected anyway, the way things are going, but the 17th A gives a better than zero chance of electing a GOP.
My two cents.
i’m in my new worldview ... no longer active, just observe and focus on what it means from a literary significance. 17th A? As long as Freepers don’t start the ‘16 campaign.
the ‘14 campaign has started in earnest here in CT. That is bad enough. Leave me out of it. A never ending something that never ends. CT-5 and CT-GOV.
Ayotte is the only GOPer from New England?
