Isn’t there a conservative who actually lives in New Hampshire who can run?

Sure, there are conservatives left in NH, but it is unlikely they could win in a statewide race in NH anymore. NH has changed so much in the last 25 years that a real conservative can not win anymore. This was evidenced in the last governors race here. NH could generally be described now as a libertarian state. The biggest slice of the electorate now considers themselves to be independent. They are the flip/floppers that determine the outcome. Also, there is not anyone who gets statewide recognition currently running against Shaheen. So, we can reelect a democrat OR potentially elect a moderate Republican. The BIG plus for Brown is that the independent women think he is dreamy. Some times you have to chose between the lesser of two evils. Not everybody gets to vote for Ted Cruz.

They need a Wiliam Loeb clone but I’m afraid there aren’t enough of them around these days.
