As a former New Hampshirite I am well aware of the streak of independence and individualism that runs through Granite Staters and I hope they don’t miss this chance to stand up for meaningful change in politics. The real question is not whether Granny D is a better politician than her opponent — he is a career pol, after all, accustomed to pulling the strings of power — but whether we want to go back to citizen government. Granny has almost a century of wisdom, clear vision of what we can be and a warm heart. Her candidacy could be the harbinger of a revolution in citizen action. Government could be more like a New Hampshire town meeting and less like a corporate board room. Go Granny Go!

Thank you for sharing your blog with her!

I agree with Chad that there’s far too much game playing going on in Washington… far too much prevarication as well!
Our political system needs a total overhaul & Granny D’s the one to get the ball rolling!
Go Granny, Go!

We really need to give the government back to the people. Electing Granny D looks like a step in the right direction.
Some would argue that she doesn’t know how to “play the game” well… I think there is enough “game playing” going on in US polotics! This is serious stuff. Children are being murdered for corperate profits.

I’m really glad that you are giving people an outlet to talk about her.

Just my thoughts.

Chad

But if it’d keep Granny D from bloggin on this site, it would all be worth it.
