Perhaps you can tell us how you (not Sununu the Sequel/Nightmare in Manchester Part II) feel about abortion and homosexuality and homeschooling. His father claimed to be right on those issues and gave us that three-dollar bill Souter on the Supreme Court who, if anything, is probably worse than Brennan.
Actually you have a desire to send Shaheen to the Senate for six years-- when she only got six years as Governor because she faced weak opponents (including someone that is viewed by the NH electorate just as Smith is-- Gordon Humphrey). Shaheen will just use the same playbook that worked well against Humphrey. In fact, Shaheen now has Mr. Weaver-- John McCain's former top campaign aide helping her after Weaver decided to switch parties. He lead McCain to his NH primary upset. He knows plenty about winning NH elections.
The most ridiculous part about Smith's campaign is that he is acting insanely desperate and the voters can smell fear-- and it's never a good thing. Smith was the only Senate incumbent running re-election radio ads last summer. Last summer!!! Voters know that electable incumbents don't do that. Smith has decided to be a card-carrying Green Party member on animal rights and the environment to try to soften his image. If the voters didn't view him as a wacko, he wouldn'thave to worry about his image. Sununu is a conservative and I'm not going to go through the reasons for the 100th time. This is about electing a conservative to the Senate. The reason Smith is so behind in GOP primary polls is because the GOP voters don't view Sununu as a liberal.
As far as fathers, Reagan's was a fall-down drunk. Are you going to hold that against RWR? Of course not. Rep. Sununu had nothing to do with Souter's appointment. You're just setting up a straw man.
I am a a conservative. I voted for Huckabee-- he of the "tax me more" fund that crystallizes the stupidity of the liberal mindset. I held up and marched back and forth with a "Nelson in '94" sign while Bill Clintoon gave a speech to about 100 fellow high school students in 1990 in LR.
You're use of "yuppie" tells me you're no better than a liberal trying to use class warfare. I don't know why you have your panties in a knot about this race, but Smith is going to lose in September because he has alienated GOP voters with his ridiculous statements and environmental votes. It's not the establishment against Smith.
