I remember being up in the White Mts. and stopping at a modest gas station where the proprietor, fumbling with little white pieces of paper, said "we don't get bailouts, so we have to keep these records." (There were Republican campaign signs on his property.) He was my kind of people. I love the people up here. They are polite and decent. People hold the door open when you enter the P.O. Nothing like that happened in the real blue state I used to inhabit. I love this place, even the frost heaves and black flies. I won't sit by and see ignorant flatlanders bash us.
The Sununus are on the outs, as John E. Sununu lost his Senate seat in 2008 after only one term.
