Latest New Hampshire poll (09/30/10) is good news for Republicans

September 30, 2010

  The latest New Hampshire poll is out and it is very good news for New Hampshire Republicans.

  According to this poll, Republican senate candidate Kelly Ayotte is ahead of Democrat Paul Hodes by 15% at 50-35. This is great news indeed! When Paul Hodes was in the House he was nothing but a rubber stamp for Nancy Pelosi–voting with her over 94% of the time. But now that he is running for the seat being vacated by the retiring Judd Gregg he has been trying to claim that he was an independent vote for New Hampshire and a fiscal conservative even though he voted for all of the spending bills that have been signed into law by Barack Obama. It is absolutely laughable that he can look at the camera with a straight face and tell the New Hampshire voters that he is not responsible for any of the outrageous spending during Barack Obama’s reign when he voted for it. New Hampshire voters see through this and I have to believe this is why he is falling in the polls. 

  The same poll shows good news for Republicans in both House races as well. In the first district–my district–Frank Guinta leads incumbent Democrat Carol Shea-Porter by 10% at 49-39. Everything that I wrote above about Paul Hodes is applicable to Carol Shea-Porter as well–there is a reason why Paul Hodes and Carol Shea-Porter have been dubbed the Pelosi twins.

  And in the second district House race Republican Charlie Bass leads Democrat  Ann McLane Kuster by 5% at 43-38. I haven’t followed this race as close as I should be because it is not in my district, but I do know this; Ann Kuster is probably to the left of  Paul Hodes (who left this seat to run for the senate) because she believes that the stimulus bill and the healthcare reform bill did not go far enough.

  All in all this is good news for the state of New Hampshire; people are tiring of the irresponsible spending in Washington and they are ready for a real change. With just a few weeks to go before the election things are beginning to look very good for New Hampshire Republicans.

      When I first started blogging, this is the year I predicted things would turn around in New Hampshire. Now we are going to see if I was accurate. Things finally may be turning a corner up here.
