Palin Ripped in Front Page NH Editorial-Don't fret over what a "Mama Grizzly'' from Alaska does.


By JOSEPH W. MCQUAID
New Hampshire Union Leader Publisher
10 hours, 34 minutes ago

SARAH PALIN'S endorsement of Kelly Ayotte for U.S. Senate should neither surprise nor upset the other campaigns. The race will be won by the candidate who impresses New Hampshire voters, and New Hampshire voters are rarely impressed by what outsiders have to say.

This is to take nothing away from Ayotte. She is a formidable first-time candidate and a legitimate contender for the Republican nomination.


But former Gov. Palin isn't making these endorsements because, as she claims, she has spent time in New Hampshire and thus knows that the people here are a lot like Alaskans. She spent a few hours here on one day during the 2008 Presidential election. That's still more time than she spent getting to know Ayotte, but it takes quite a bit longer to know New Hampshire.

A word of advice for supporters of Messrs. Bender, Binnie, Lamontagne and Hodes (sounds like a law firm, doesn't it?): Don't fret over what a "Mama Grizzly'' from Alaska does. Right now, Granite Staters have more to worry about in keeping bears away from bird feeders.

3. Palin's the best thing to happen to the GOP in 30 years

... from a liberal Democrat's perspective. Gee I hope they keep her as a mascot. She's a constant reminder of how ill-informed and ridiculous extreme rightwingers are.

4. Great to see, but unfortunately this doesn't apply in Georgia
Karen Handel (Palin's pick) is now in a runoff with Nathan Deal (Gingrich's pick) for the GA-R(edneck) governor race. On the plus side, there could be some very entertaining mud-slinging between these two, resulting in a weakened Republican candidate to face Roy Barnes in November.
