NH Senate Race centers on souring on Obama

If the New Hampshire race is like others in some respects, it is unique in at least one.

Brown, 55, moved to the state to run. The race is his third for the Senate in five years. Shaheen, 67, is a known political commodity in New Hampshire. She was elected, to this Senate seat, in 2008 when Obama won the state.

"She's won in a wave and lost in a wave," says former Rep. Frank Guinta, a Republican. "I think she's as susceptible as anyone is."

That view — that even a well-established politician can lose if enough voters sour on Obama after six years — explains Brown's presence in the race, the close polls and the torrent of television commercials by both political parties and their allies.

Like challengers in other races, Brown runs hard against the current occupant of the White House, who is plagued with low approval ratings. Shaheen votes "99 percent of the time with President Obama," he says frequently. "Do you know how much she actually votes for you? Zero," he told one audience.

Campaigning last week in Nashua at a company that makes prototype metal products, Brown stressed the importance of renewing the state's economy, easing federal regulations and reducing energy costs. He favors repealing the nation's health care law, even before any replacement is ready.

One employee of the metal company, Becky Landry, 49, generally votes Republican. "He's got my vote. I just believe in what he says," she said, voicing a concern felt by many in an age of dissatisfaction with political figures.

At New England Porch Rockers in Laconia, two women credited Shaheen with helping their businesses solve problems, and expressed their support.

I read this article this morning, on Yahoo News, and some of the 300+ comments made by readers. Out of all the comments I read, NOT ONE was favorable to Shaheen, and Yahoo News definitely has a Liberal slant. I think this seat will be a pickup for the GOP. (So now, y'all can vote against Thad Cockroach.)

Hey, look. Yahoo finds a (cough cough) Republican who thinks (uber RINO) Scott Brown is too extreme.

Dianna Guida Hosmer, said she is a Republican but that Brown is "not my kind of Republican. He voted for every crazy and extreme Republican amendment put before him."

Amazing how that always happens.

“Now, I am not on the ballot this fall,” Obama stressed. “... But make no mistake: These policies are on the ballot — every single one of them.”

Senate Candidate Scott Brown (Repub--NH) has jumped 20 points over incumbent Dummycrat Shaheen...... and is now in the lead....... on the Amnesty issue alone! In fact, Scott was the first Repub candidate to pinpoint amnesty in his campaign ads.

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

Scott Brown needs to show all the reasons why his opponent does not belong in the Congress....including the burgeoning ntl security threats from Shaheen's embrace of "immigration reform."

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

SHAHEEN SUCKS-UP BIGTIME---VOTES FOR "COMMONSENSE, COMPREHENSIVE" GANG OF EIGHT IMMIGRATION BILL" June 27, 2013

(FROM SHAHEEN'S OFFICIAL WEB SITE) “Commonsense immigration reform is the right thing for our economy and is long overdue,” Shaheen said. “The plan we passed today represents the right way forward. It puts the millions of undocumented immigrants who are already living in our country on a path toward citizenship, but not until after imposing strict penalties. And this plan will strengthen border security which will blunt the flow of persons entering our country illegally.”

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

If reelected, Shaheen can be depended upon to come up w/ more ntl security threats as she sucks-up to the Third World's "immigration reform modus operandi" to subvert US ntl security.

Dr. Ben Carson Slams New Anti-American AP History Curriculum
Breitbart ^ | 10/02/2014 | Warner Todd Huston / FR Posted by Rusty0604

Conservative favorite Dr. Ben Carson has joined the criticism of the new AP History curriculum that many say teaches kids to hate the USA. Carson said that the course was so anti-American that it would make "most people" want to "sign up for ISIS." Early this year news broke of a new Advanced Placement History test (APUSH) that cut out America's founding fathers and prioritizes America's faults.

“I am a little shocked quite frankly looking at the AP course in American history that’s being taught in high schools across our country right now. There’s only two paragraphs in there about George Washington. George Washington, believe it or not. Little or nothing about Martin Luther King.

A whole section of slavery and how evil we are. A whole section about Japanese internment camps. A whole section about how we wiped out American Indians with no mercy. I mean I think most people when they finish that course, they’d be ready to sign up for ISIS. This is what we are doing to the young people in our nation. We have got to stop this silliness. We have to stop crucifying ourselves. Have we made mistakes as a nation? Of course we have. Why? Because we are people and all people make mistakes." (Excerpt) Read more at breitbart.com ...

REFERENCE--Subversive Texas Textbooks---distributed nationwide--- vilify conservative groups;

Breitbart Texas | 09/10/2014 | Merrill Hope / FR Posted by Rusty0604

In 2006, uber-liberal "Texas Rising" stated its mission: "developing an emerging generation of social justice-minded, informed and engaged leaders is essential to the long-term health of our communities and the development of progressive public policy in Texas."

...a sneak peak at the preliminary Social Studies textbook found including distortions, omissions and half- truths all passing for accurate high school US history...

And there's this gem: "The radical right consists of groups that sometimes gather under the flag of militant anticommunism. Often known as reactionaries, they denounce most forms of government regulation, including progressive taxation and restrictions and industry. Examples of political groups on the radical right are the John Birch Society, the National States & Rights party, The Christian Crusade, and the Tea Party movement."

Strangely enough, these cream puff radicals who abhor police power would not hesitate to use government police power to enforce the changes they desire.

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

THIRD WORLD INFILTRATION College Board exams changed history answers... revisionist historians developed different answers to the question of what America’s story is about. From their perspective, at the heart of our country’s history—like the history of any other powerful nation—lies the pursuit of empire, of dominion over others. At its core, say the revisionists, America’s history is about our capacity for self-delusion, our endless attempts to justify raw power grabs with pretty fairy-tales about democracy. ....

NOTE WELL: This terrifying Third World revisionism is straight out of Third World textbooks---emphasizing the T/W effort to undermine US ntl security for the coming armed takeover.

The conniving T/W uses an ancient formula going back to Greco-Roman times---where savages, barbarians and thieves overrun a bountiful country lusting after its power and riches.

REFERENCE Some 10 years back, Texas schools started used Mexican textbooks for their backward illiterate Spanish-speaking students. Textbooks advocated the Mexican perspective including:

<><> anti-white, anti-capitalist anti-USA viewpoints;

<><> Mexican textbooks falsified US history,

<><> proselytized blood-thirsty La Raza savagery;

<><> using teaching as brainwashing;

<><> inculcating violent separatist, latino supremacy idealogy.

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

REALITY CHECK A primetime network news segment focused on an "impoverished" latino mother who paid big bucks to get her son coached to take the College Boards---but he was so stupid, he still couldn't pass them. So the C/B summarily "changed" the tests so that Pedro could pass using subversive Third World hate-filled US history.

I take the president at his word, that these mid-term elections should be a referendum on him and his Democrat party. I will vote accordingly.

Obama Fatigue.

That puts him in the same company as Clinton and Bush2.

Even many on his side of the aisle are turning away from him. They expected him to be greater than the sum of his parts. He deceived them. Anything outside the golf course is too big a distraction for him.

Of course, not many will say so while he is still in office, but look for a deluge of tell-all books and articles from administration ‘insiders’ soon after January 2017. Gibbs and Panetta have already been somewhat critical of their former employer.

“The main problem with New Hampshire is Boston. LIke the main problem with New Jersey is New York and Philadelphia.”

So what you are saying is that EVERY STATE has at least ONE BIG $HITTHOLE CITY, except NJ, which doesn’t have one of it’s own, so it has to rely on NY and PA!

Red Hampshire is no predictable though it craves the reputation for being unpredictable.

No.
NJ has its own share.
It’s just that these left-wing Megalopolises TOTALLY overwhelm the surrounding states with their “colonists”.
