At the monthly meeting held on 15 May 2014, the Coos County Republican Committee became the first committee in the state to refuse to accept a donation by the Scott Brown PAC. Mr Brown, who is running for the US Senate in the primary against 3 other contenders, has donated a large sum of money through his PAC to each county committee. In the course of the meeting on Thursday, every member of the committee present was given the opportunity to discuss their views on the matter, after which a vote was taken.

Chairman Eric Catman stated ” While we understand the donation came with no strings attached, our committee must maintain total impartiality until after the primary.

I asked Gun Owners of America who was worse - Kelly Amnesty Ayotte or Scott Assault Weapons Brotherhood Brown. They couldn't answer the question.

“...Chairman Eric Catman stated ” While we understand the donation came with no strings attached, our committee must maintain total impartiality until after the primary. This impartiality must not only be maintained, but be SEEN to be maintained, and accepting this donation would have compromised that. We felt our integrity as a committee could have been called into question and so while we thank Mr Brown and his PAC for their efforts, we must respectfully decline.”...”

I respect this local committee’s commitment to integrity. This does not mean, by any measure, that after the primary they will not be supporting Brown should he be the nominee.

The 60th vote for OsamaObamaCare rejoices.

Coos County and the Northeast Kingdom area of Vermont are still Republican area. Unfortunately, a lot of the states in New England have more Republican areas, but the cities make the states blue. (Eastern Maine, Litchfield Hills and Tolland County in CT and the small towns in Vermont are some red areas).
