Don Bolduc says he has momentum without Mitch McConnell’s help

New Hampshire Republican Senate candidate General Don Bolduc spoke Breitbart News Saturday that his campaign has the momentum to defeat Democrat Sen. Maggie Hassan (D-NH) without Sen. Mitch McConnell’s (R-KY) support.

Starting October 25, Shane Goldmacher from the McConnell-backed Senate Leadership Fund will remove all ads on television in New Hampshire by the McConnell-backed Senate Leadership Fund. News York Times reported Friday afternoon.

When asked by Breitbart News’s Matt Boyle if he needed the recently stripped-away $5.6 million to win come November 8, Bolduc said he has been running a race for two years without McConnell’s help and is now tied with Hassan in the polls. “The momentum is great right now,”He said. “We were 15 points behind during the primary. We closed the gap to 7-5-3, and now we’re in a tie. The momentum is going our way because we’re campaigning the Granite State way – five events a day is my average out there on the ground – town halls, house parties, community events, you name it.”

“Now, I can’t lie — I need money,”The retired U.S. Army general brigadier general stated. “And if people go to — and they can go to DonBolduc.com, they can certainly help me out, but we’re gonna continue to move forward. We did it with less than $500,000 last time, and we did it by working hard and not counting on anybody except Granite Staters.”

Bolduc added that he had no idea why McConnell pulled the $5.6 million of Senate Leadership Fund money from his campaign, potentially sabotaging the GOP’s chances of retaking the Senate.

If momentum continues to swing the Repub’s way there’ll be a number of new senators in DC who not only owe McConnell nothing for their seats but will be inclined to vote against him for speaker. Fingers crossed.

Bolduc’s ad demonizes “liberals” without much policy stuff. I’m voting for him, of course.

I think Morse would have won this race,

If for no other reason than getting rid of McConnell, Republicans in New Hampshire should go all out to elect Bolduc...

Sneaky has NINE MILLION for the party switcher Murkowski to run against a real Republican. It is time for him to leave the Majority Leader post, otherwise we will be stuck with 2017 all over again where the only thing Turtle and Ryan accomplished was tax cuts, no defunding of NPR, no downsizing of the bureaucracy or total restructuring of the FBI, Mr. Hughes in Dylan’s shoes, wearing his disguise.

Policy stuff doesn’t work in ads.

As Alinsky said, “Ridicule is man’s most potent weapon.”

Morse was a designated loser... chosen by the NH uniparty and if by chance he won, he would be a 💯 % Linda graham/McConnell stooge. No thanks.

Morse is a perfect example of why the 17th Amendment needs to go... way too much power via funding to the party bosses in DC.

Our Founding Father’s were not stupid

Yes, I know, but I don’t think “I hate LIBERALS” is an effective message in NH.

Just one man’s opinion. We’ll see in 16 days.

Look, beating Hassan is important.

Picking a candidate has a lot of considerations, one very important one is, “Does he know how to run a campaign and win elections?”

The slate in the NH primary wasn’t perfect. Morse has won a lot of elections, Bolduc is 0 for 1.

Now, where I’m coming from is hoping for the complete destruction of the GOP and its replacement by a right wing party with appeal to some Democrats, so my preference for Morse was a weak one.

Buldoc is zero for one because the New Hampshire uniparty failed to get behind him, by design.

It saddens me the amount of effort that is expended on these type of circumstances and everybody ignores the root cause

I guess in the grander scheme of things it would be awesome if we could somehow stop worrying about McConnell, Graham’s and Chuck Morris types and focus on repealing the 17th Amendment and eliminating the senior executive service with a constitutional convention and restore the Republic.
