NH-GOV 2018: Molly Kelly (D) running

[Shadows]

Papas or Shaheen are the most likely challengers and both I believe could defeat Sununu

RIP Sununu if Shaheen runs.

Why do you want a Shaheen dynasty? If the Shaheen machine was that strong then with the strength of Hillary, why did they lose big in NH with Hassan, Shaheen & everyone campaigning for Hillary?

Sanders campaigned for Clinton in NH as well. And no, I don't want a Shaheen dynasty in NH, I just want the state to elect a liberal Democratic governor, preferably a female. Ann Kuster and Carol Shea-Porter are probably better fits for the state, anyway. Sununu is a terrible ruthless Republican and I hope he is gone in two years. I'd be very satisfied if NH has no statewide Republican officeholder after 2018 - the Republican Party shouldn't be associated with the state at all.

Do you hate NH? Or are you a closed Dem?

I obviously dislike the state, but there are several other reasons why I want to see Sununu lose in 2018:

1.) I'd much rather Kelly Ayotte won than him. Ayotte is an overrated neocon, but she's better than the 'person' that will be sworn in as Senator today.
2.) Sununu, even though he is too liberal for my taste, is obviously way to the right of his state.
3.) If Sununu wins in 2018, he will probably run against Shaheen in 2020 or Hassan in 2022, which will lead Republicans to waste resources in unwinnable NH instead of focusing on competitive states like CO, NC and MT. Republicans wasting all that money to save Ayotte last year almost cost them PA, WI and MO and thus the Senate.
4.) If the RGA had triaged NH and spent all that money in NC instead of NH, Republicans could have held a governorship in a crucial swing state. No one cares whether a blue state like NH has a one-term Republican governor who doesn't have any power anyway. WV might have been winnable as well.
5.) Sununu also strikes me as a pretty unlikeable, phony guy. The guy ran a very nasty, negative, ruthless campaign that appealed to many Clinton/Hassan voters.

So yeah, I hope he loses in 2018. The NH Democratic Party threw away a winnable race this year, I don't think they will make that same mistake in 2018 or 2020. Sununu should be gone in two or four years.

Why hate NH of all states?
