And this may come as an even bigger surprise but several [...]

In a desperate attempt to placate the far left of the Democrat Party, NHDP Chair Ray Buckley has taken to Blue Hampshire to spin the less then stellar recruiting class to take on incumbent Republicans or run in seats where Democrats are retiring as opposed to running again in November.

Fresh on the heels of a UNH poll showing President Obama’s approval dipping below 50% and yet another poll, and one from the liberal blog Daily Kos at that, showing Paul Hodes losing to a Republican in the race for US Senate. There is more hand wringing and worrying from the very top of the [...]
