IF he's a NH guy, why was he a MA Senator? Had to be an outsider in one state or the other. You can't be a resident of both at the same time.

He strikes me as a guy that can easily get lots of campaign funding and simply buy an election. He also has a voting record that indicates his vote can be purchased by Pharmaceutical companies (and maybe others as well).

He also voted against federal income tax cuts that would help the vast majority of NH residents(to be fair, the tax cuts were bundled with tax increases that would hurt the very wealthy).

He has done lots of positive things too, especially in the areas of treating Autism and initiatives to improve nutrition. He's not the worst guy we could elect, I just like to think there had to have been someone that's lived here for the last 40 years that could do a good job too.
