Shaheen is so highly skilled at saying nothing, doing nothing, appearing to be quite reasonable and moderate while doing so, and characterizing whatever opponent she has as an extremist.

She's tough.

Sounds like the perfect candidate for Massachusetts liberals who've crossed the border to avoid paying taxes, but still spout liberal bromides with vigor.

"saying nothing, doing nothing, appearing to be quite reasonable and moderate while doing so, and characterizing whatever opponent she has an extremist."

Yeah, I listened to a bit of a debate the other night while I was driving home. I can't recall the particular questions now, but I do remember thinking her response to the question and then her response to Mr. Benson's challenge SOUNDED like she was actually saying something sensible. Then I realized that I was hearing her tone and modulation, (she has good diction, and speaks grammatically) and because I was navigating a left turn against traffic, I wasn't really listening to the words.

On the next question, I realized that she was speaking perfect doublespeak and never actually answered the question, not when it was posed, and not when she was challenged on the content of what she said the first time. Before I got home, I heard her do it two more times. I'd have sat in my driveway and continued to listen, but she was by that time infuriating me, and I couldn't make myself do it.

I think she's killing Sununu.

His ads are weak, he personally is not very visible, and Jeannie's radio ads in particular are vicious.

We'll see.

The Dems have a school for this...and their best candidates graduate with honors. Shaheen is a prize pupil. KKT is a Shaheen wannabe, and failing miserably. She will likely win, but she's a vicious in-fighter in disguise.

It's all an illusion created by her "magic" scarf.....
