Quick, name "the leading conservative" in New Hampshire.
Time's up. Did the name Jack Kimball spring immediately to mind?
Well, it did in Jack's mind. He identified himself as such in a recent press release reporting himself pleased to announce that he seeks the chairmanship of the New Hampshire Republican Party. Editorial logo
That position is open because former Gov. John Sununu, whom some might find slightly more befitting of that title than Kimball, is stepping down.
Actually, quite a few names come to mind before Kimball's, and considering how important they all are and will be in helping Sununu's successor, whoever that is, Kimball might want to keep this in mind:
Jack be nimble.
Jack be quick.
Jack, get over yourself.
“I have no time for Cheers.”
You seem unduly unhappy. For the constitutionally oriented, this is a happy time, indeed.
In case you didn’t notice, collectivism is on the run, heading down the road to political extinction. Joining the collectivists on that run are the dead tree media, and the LameStream electronic media.
I, for one, plan on enjoying every moment of amusement the enemy provides, and they really are walking, talking jokes.
I do not. To date not a single item that is Constitutionally oriented or socially Conservative on the State or Federal level is even close to being started.
Lots of talk, zero plans, no action = zero results. The NH GOP, US House and the RINO Republican majority in NH will do nothing for the next 2 years.
You are absolutely right...the left and moderate factions in NH will see to it that Palin loses the primary, and the media will paint her as a ‘loser’ and do their best to destroy her. Which has the bigger downside...getting her brains beat in during the NH primary, or just skipping the damn state completely? This state is being set up to blunt her momentum right out of the gate...one way or another.
By pass NH and just ignore it and everything else about the Primary here in NH. You are so correct about “the Plan” to defeat Palin ASAP. NH is a very fundamental gear in that war machine to destroy Palin. The RINO’s and Democrats absolutely know Palin as a Christian has ZERO chance of surviving the “First in the Nation” Primary in NH. Having Palin “stumble” in NH is just the plan. What better way to clear the path for Romney or some other jack@ss of that ilk.
Why do you think the Union Leader just went after Jack Kimball the TEA Party candidate for the last Gov., election and a solid Conservative in his run for the NH GOP Chair being vacated by MAJOR RINO Sununu? Coincidence? Right....
Ping.
Very confusing. Your state is setting the stage for a RINO win or mainly for Sarah Palin’s defeat?
Ensuring RINO’s stay ahead and the “First in the Nation” status of NH is used against Palin when she runs. Palin will not win a Primary in Nh and the NH GOP will ensure that she loses and give the lame stream media more fodder.
The NH GOP as currently formed hates the TEA Party and barely tolerates social Conservatives and has less tolerance for Christians. Governor Palin should avoid NH, in the long haul it will be the best thing for her campaign.
I don’t think a RINO victory has anything to do with it...I believe Article10 is making the case for Sarah to just skip the NH primary. If she runs in NH, and gets trounced; the media will crucify her, and we all know it. Do you think she should skip NH entirely, and start with South Carolina instead?
Thank you for summing that up for me. You are so correct.
What Christine O’Donnell went through in Delaware will happen to Sarah Palin here in NH. Same song, second verse.
The Union Leader attacking Jack Kimball, the face of the TEA Party in NH is the opening round to ensure Julia Bergeron is the NH GOP Chair. With Bergeron the Chair of the NH GOP, Palin will be treated just like COD.
I hope you are wrong, as no doubt you do also.
However, bankruptcy has a wonderful way of opening the eyes of the public.
As for nothi g being started, the new Congress has not yet opened. Thus I will wait before condemning them as a do nothing bunch.
As a suggestion, even RINO’s are aware of what happened in the last election. Constant reminding may help them back towards a more constitutionally oriented perspective.
Best of luck with your RINO’s.
Down here in Florida, we expect much of our politicians. For instance, the Governor said he supported open carry and said so during the campaign.
Down here, collectivism is really on the run, and not that many elections ago, the collectivists, AKA “Condo Commando’s” were doing well. The Ron Klein v. Alan West election is a case in point.
When South Florida Liberals, with a large percentage of Jews, voted Klein a white, Liberal Jew out and elected West, who is black, conservative and one of those awful, reptilian Republicans - things are looking up.
The influence of the transplanted Taxachussetts bunch will not keep NH collectivist. The Condo Commandos lost here, and their NH ‘fellow travelers’ will also.
I suggest a “define ‘em” (as collectivists), “denounce ‘em” (as collectivists), and the voters will “de-elect ‘em”.
Why? ‘Cause voters don’t like collectivists.
I appreciate your reply and see the wisdom of it.
Yet, in NH the RINO’s are still alive and well, that is sickening thing. I am confident I will be flamed by several of the regular NH posters here on FR but I don’t care, some times the truth hurts.
Thanks again.
Reagan never missed an opportunity to “educate”. The next great Conservative leader should do the same. The left never stops indoctrinating people with their views, neither should we. A Conservative may not win in NH, but they can advance the cause and continue to educate. That is the one failure of the Right. We can never stop educating people about the truth.
Thanks very much for your insights. Let me give it some thought. I see that your state’s activists are stacked against her and I already realize that handing her a loss is precisely what the enemy wants. She has the keenest political instincts of any politician alive, so I’m certain she’s already ahead of us... but I nonetheless wonder what she has in mind.
I’ll find the primary calendar again.
Just curious to see what you think...
I’m giving it some thought.... looking for the calendar. Iowa is first... then NH. Iowa is not a certain win for her either.
IIRC, NH expects candidates to practically LIVE there.
You are welcome, any time.
I really wish the best for Governor Palin.
You called that one, brother...John Sununu just endorsed Julia Bergeron this afternoon...the chairman will be selected January 22nd.
The fix is in.
For the uninformed; Bergeron is from Keene/Cheshire County...NH's own little Berkeley, and home nest of many of the 'Free Staters' who are moving into NH. This will NOT be good enws for Sarah if Bergeron is 'selected' new head of the NH GOP.
Well what a surprise....Funny how I don’t see any other NH Freepers commenting on this thread or the UL site....the silence speaks volumes.
Gov. Palin should evaluate NH really hard if Bergeron is the Chair. NH RINO Republicans are specialists at being two faced and very much know the art of placing knives in to the backs of the un-aware candidates. Ask Craig Benson how his wounds are healing. Tread lightly with this species of RINO, the “First in the Nation” game is a very near and dear weapon for these charlatans. The TEA Party is a very serious threat to ensuring those chosen to win or lose is taken away from a handful of players from each party.
Facts are Sununu attended 10+ fund raisers for John Stephen, RINO prior to the primary for Govenor here in NH and attended one just 2 days before the primary for Jack Kimball the TEA Party backed candidate. Sununu and his ilk in NH hate, let me repeat that, HATE the TEA Party and everything Palin represents.
Interesting going’s on in your state, which also coincides with the selection of the new RNC chair. I note that all of the five were asked today whether Sarah Palin could win the election over Obama and all said “yes.” [Some obviously catering to TEA Party Republicans, since some are already tied to potential presidential candidates].
An interesting nugget from the 2010 Census...a MAJORITY of current NH residents are from ‘somewhere else’. No wonder things have changed...
