New Hampshire!!
Who would have thought that we would take both house seats. Carol Shea-Porter had to campaign by sending chain letters for chrissake to beat and incumbent. This was a big time VICTORY.

The Jefferson - Jackson Day speech is defacto evidence that our buddy played a major role.

1. This was a very sweet victory!
I was caught by suprise (a pleasant suprise) when both House seats went blue.

2. Her victory made me so happy. Her race was not even listed
in the important races on CNN.

3. Carol Shea-Porter is also the FIRST woman ever elected to Congress from NH!
You should have seen the "old boy" Republicans on WMUR TV in Manchester after the results were in. They looked...grim!


A thing of beauty!

:rofl:

4. BTW, I was on the phone with my NH Brother the other night
and he was talking about Carol Shea-Porter. He loved her and wished he lived in NH-02 so he could vote for her. (He was in 01 and voted FOR Paul Hodes.)

Shea-Porter got the votes of a lot of folks who normally woulnd't have ever considered her, like my Navy vet brother. It was the anti-war, anti- 'stay the course' stance that did it.

Thank you New Hampshire.

5. That's so cool!
We saw so many Jeb Bradley signs while driving around New Hampshire that I feared for her. Congratulations, New Hampshire!!
