John who?

So I finally heard a commercial about Jean Shaheen that was not by Jean. I was had just took a left into traffic, and as I shifted my car, I must have hit the volume up button on the radio. An announcer comes on and states how Shaheen promised us that as Governor, she would not allow new taxes in New Hampshire. I rolled my eyes and shifted into 3^rd gear. I thought to my self, “Wow, already lying to the public…” But then the tone changed slightly, and the announcer starts to remind us of the truth. I was so surprised that I mis-shifted 4^th gear.

It outlined how Jean proposed new taxes, AND raised property taxes. I forgot that in New Hampshire we pay the third highest property taxes. The Announcer was kind enough to remind me of this while also stating that the taxes she proposed would have cost the New Hampshire business owners hundreds of thousands of dollars. (Say that 10 times fast!!) As interesting as this was, I started to think, “Why would John Sununu use this as his political add?” Then the final line of the commercial came, and it was NOT a John Sununu commercial. In fact, it wasn’t even a commercial from the Republican Party; it was a third party spot!

Now I don’t mean to sound like a broken record, but where the hell is John in all of this. I really hope he is not intending to ride in at the last moment and scoop up all the votes he needs. His opponent has been out of sight long enough that many people forgot what she was like as Governor. There is no way he can pull this off unless he starts putting his name out there, and starts hitting the streets again. I am sorry John, you might be the incumbent, but you don’t have squat against Shaheen right now! Too many people have forgotten that you’re even in Washington at this point. You are about to lose us another chair in Washington.

Look, John, unless you intend to step aside and allow someone else to run in your place, get your rump out there and show us what you got! Just for the heck of it, I have asked some people what they thought about John Sununu. Too many times, people asked me, “Wasn’t he a congress person or something?” I don’t know John, does this sound good to you? It doesn’t sound good to me. If this was the political climate I was looking for, I would move to France and let the government have my paycheck (where you could be paying over 55% back in taxes). John, Stop sending ME emails and DO SOMETHING!
