They Now Have A Taste For The Power Of The Ballot! Bergeron For GOP Chair


It won’t


by Niel Young Advocates Columnist


be e a s y h o l d i n g the num- bers elect- e d t h i s past Nov. 2 here in NH, and Socialists Demo - crats are


already working to dis- credit the Republicans or is that the nasty expres- sion “tea baggers”? Boy - don’t they hate us! There is one self-proclaimed RINO that comments on the pages of the NH Union Leader who likes to use it. What happened that


day in November was the firing of many - I say, MANY of those who are willing to take our coun- try on the Barack Obama fast-track to Socialism.


******** I hear John Lynch now


talking “compromise” - The Teflon Governor Rides Again. And the Loo- ney Left refuses to accept the will of the voters. That’s okay; the Social- ists Democrats had four straight years controlling the offices that the Re- publicans now have. And where is the state of NH now? It is time to reverse what they have done to ruin my native NH. I am talking fiscally and so- cially. If the GOP does not


create a friendly environ- ment for business and investment within 2-4 years, in spite of Gov. Tef- lon and the Loonies, the voters will rise again. They now have a taste


for the power of the bal- lot!


******** TO THE STATE GOP


CONVENTION DELE- GATES: A bit of advice via


the not so distant history of politics. Many of you are GOP chairpersons and members of our NH House and Senate. Richard Nixon did a


great disservice to our country and the Repub- lican Party. A poor tem- porary replacement Ger- ald Ford lost to Jimmy Carter. Carter lost to Ronald Reagan following a disastrous one term. George HW Bush (“Read My Lips”) after two terms as Vice-President lost to Bill Clinton. The voters were not in the mood for more lies. Well, they did not know what was com- ing. George W. Bush won two terms by defeating Al Gore and John Kerry who were no match for “W” - most common sense conservatives like me did not want to give “W” a sec- ond term - but what were the options? GW worked with the Liberal Lion (Ted Kennedy) and we got No Child Left Behind and a real weakness for Illegal Immigrants and spending money we do not have. And the voters said NO John McCain but some guy named Barack Hus- sein Obama, former US Senator and Community Organizer, who offered us CHANGE. Once again American voters said yes to change. And those of us who know better than to vote for Democrats were left with John Mc- Cain as our nominee. Thank God that Sarah


Palin was on the ticket or John would have lost by an even larger margin. My worry is that choices


are important and what kind of leader can we ex- pect from the next Chair- man of the NH GOP for fund-raising, unifying the party and temperament to deal with the factions that comprise the GOP?


If I were a delegate my


vote would go to Juliana Bergeron. Time speaking with her by phone, email- ing her with questions, and she as a guest on The Advocates to strongly suggest that to keep the numbers and perhaps increase them could be accomplished under the leadership with the quali- ties of Juliana. Jack Kimball, on the


other hand, has not been an active member of the party. Jack will not raise the money needed for success in two years. Unfortunately Jack’s only experience is that of a GOP candidate in the primary. And he did not raise enough money to compete in a race for NH Senate, never mind as governor!


******** Did you know that the


CNHGOP hires the Ex- ecutive Director and de- cides what his/her pay will be? Shouldn’t this be part of your thought process? I must tell you of my disappointment to read the following quotes from two friends - but when one works hard to get RESULTS….some statements have to be dealt with. Fran Wendelboe: “I am excited to see Jack Kim- ball commit to becoming a candidate. He clearly demonstrated during his campaign for Governor that he is a true Reagan


Republican. I believe he is the right candidate at the right time.” Jennifer Horn: “Now


more than ever before we need strong, principled leadership and Jack Kim- ball will provide that.” And this - “Jack brings


decades of experience as a successful small business owner that will assist him in the admin- istrative and fund-raising responsibilities of the po- sition.” Jack had no staff to


speak of during the run for governor. He raised very little money. And business experience - how many employees does he have? Juliana Bergeron is the


owner of a successful insurance business in Keene. She has served two terms as Cheshire County GOP Chairman - and that is not easy get- ting Republicans elected from that part of NH! Juliana and Jack are scheduled to speak at the Belknap County GOP


monthly meeting in Laco- nia 1/12 and Juliana will be a phone guest during The Advocates 1/15.


******** RADIO GUESTS: Rick


Santorum 1/12. Kevin Williamson, deputy man- aging editor of National Review 1/14. We need to discuss


the idea of “Nationalizing” the Oil Industry here in America - so says a recent caller. Sure; while India and China become more industrialized they need more oil. And America has not built an oil refin- ery in 35 plus years we cannot keep up with our demand. So... the “Loony Left” who could care less about our grandchildren and the future for them a handful of these “Pro- gressives” are purposely ruining our country. Look around - if we had more refineries in this country - that oil that is coming from Alaska through the pipeline would not be sold to Japan.
