The poll, commissioned by the Republican Governor's Association, was conducted on March 19 and 20 and asked 600 likely voters in New Hampshire who they would vote for in the U.S. Senate election. Respondents were given both Brown and Shaheen's names and their respective parties.

Not sure how accurate the poll is, but this is a big turnaround if anywhere close to true. He was something like 9 points down in the last one. If he’s pulled even, Shaheen is in trouble and Dems will have to spend money here. Brown is good for, if nothing else, a drain on Democrap resources.

> RINO ahead of Commie.

+1

I’ll not vote for him.

I will be voting for Testerman in the primary and I will write-in her name in the general election.

I will not vote for the gun-grabbing, baby-killing, back-stabbing, RAT-loving RINO!

Then let the chips fall where they may.

RINO Brown will give us the deaf ear and the cold shoulder if he’s elected and will become one of McCain’s RAT pack, like he was as senator from Taxachusetts.

He stabbed us in the back on “gun control”. He is dead to me.

I . will . not . vote . for this RINO pig!

I'm with you half the way. I'll vote for the more conservative candidate in the primary (still needs to shake out). But if it's RINO Brown or Commie Shaheen, it's a no brainer for me. Someone who votes with Ted Cruz and Rand Paul 50-60% of the time is better than someone who opposes them 100% of the time. At least in my eyes. But I respect your opinion.

Think it over.

Brown will caucus w/ Repubs-—Shaheen will not.

Understand the horse-trading that goes on in Congress-—chances are he’ll need something-—so he’ll trade his aye vote on a Repub social issue for a much-needed favor.

MEMO TO NH VOTERS:

<><> Ask Shaheen why she voted to subsidize O/Care by decimating Medicare Advantage for seniors.

<><> Ask Shaheen why the White House calculatedly kept the gruesome details to itself while egging on loyal lock-stepping Democrats to vote for O/Care.

<><> Ask Shaheen why the WH lied to Americans in a way so specific, it showed they knew exactly what to spin and how......via the infamous "If you like your health-care plan, you can keep your health-care plan, period."

<><> Ask Shaheen after she voted for it why she carried on for the next three years making believe she'd actually read the ACA bill and pretending she understood its implications.

<><> Ask Shaheen why she was taken aback by complaints about O/Care from her constituents.

=============================================

Shaheen and her coterie of lock-stepping Dummycrats are gonna
find out real soon: NH voters did not just fall off a turnip truck.

Polls, schmolls. The rigged election will be the final arbiter.

It’s frustrating living in an overwhelmingly blue state. Not only do you have to deal with the liberals who run your state government but also with the GOP that is filled with RINOS. Voting for the lesser of two evils has put the country in a bind because we have liberals running amok and an opposition party filled with wimps and dealmakers who are afraid of criticism from liberals and will not stand up to them.

So, the Dems get another vote either way.

Brown turned out to not be such a prize when he took over Kennedy’s seat. He couldn’t even keep the seat.

Now, he is carpetbagging. Still not great prize.

As long as the Democrats cower in fear, I’m happy.

I believe we are at the point where it is preferable to have a RINO lose to a Democrat.

A congress full of RINOs will not advance liberty, limited government, border integrity or any other issue that is critical to our nation in these scary times.

Moreover, RINOs give bi-partisan coverage to the totalitarian leftist agenda of the Democrats.

At least a Democrat majority will be forced to take the blame for terrible policy consequences.

I think our beloved nation is teetering precariously on the edge of collapse, and putting RINOs in congress and the White House is not going to save us.

Besides, if we are able to make the GOPe candidates lose their elections, that will continue to prove to the RINO establishment that Republicans cannot win elections without the full support of the Tea Party/Conservative base.

So I will only vote for Tea Party supporting candidates from here on out.

Yah, don’t see the excitement in this. A quasi-Dem over a genuine Dem. At least with Shaheen, she’s honest about her positions.

He can beat Climate-Change-All-the Time Markey.

Sununu Jr can beat Shaheen.

I don’t get this at all.

I’ll trade a Brown for a Collins. I can’t vote for Collins, I’d almost vote for Brown because he’s less into the system.
