Reply to comment by pahnzoh in What is the REAL current state of the Senate race? by misomiso82

New Hampshire for at least the previous few decades has a tradition of voting for centrist democrats over the lunatics the republicans nominate, and an even longer tradition of electing more “moderate” polite republicans

If Bolduc could contain himself and act more like a Sununu he’d probably sweep Hassan away. Unfortunately for you New Hampshire republicans love nominating the craziest people on earth for what should be slam dunk elections. In case you were wondering why someone like Annie Kuster has been there that long

Well that's a biased perspective.

But the morons of this state are still voting for these Democrat scumbags, even if they're fooling themselves that they're the lesser of two evils.

No shit. Of course it’s a biased perspective. Every political opinion anyone has ever had is biased.

I have no love for the state Democratic Party, and less love for the state GOP, but even I’m secondhand pissed off on your behalf by the political malpractice of the state republicans.

There’s absolutely no reason this senate race should be a lost cause for the republicans, same goes for house races. But it’s what you get when your primary voters are ideologically removed from the general electorate

Sununu is also going to win by a massive landslide this election despite being a republican, because whatever else you can say about the man he doesn’t come across as a fucking lunatic

All of the Democrats come across as fucking lunatics as well. That's why I think this system, while perhaps well intentioned 230 years ago, is fundamentally broken. We don't need to choose rulers like this every few years when they're all scumbags.

I find them kinda weird and robotic but they seem like normal politicians
