Anyone else catch her on Meet the Press? They had no one on to balance out her mis-information.

Is there an article/evidence for this?

Our local tebaggers are all over it. The young ones have already moved to NH.

I would call the motorcycle population in NH huge.

Ayotte was AG is the state. She took advantage of the economic discontent of 2010 and a weak candidate on the democratic side. She will be tough to beat in the next election, likely the only person that can beat her is the current democratic Governor in that state, he is a wealthy businessman and has broad voter support even in his second term.

(28,941 posts)It let the Repubs run the table. I saw no signs for either Hodes (Senate) or Kuster (House) nor received any literature or any phone calls. Ayotte and Bass on the other, you couldn't throw a rock without hitting something about them.
Oh yeah, the Repubs took back the state legg after being kicked out in '08.
