Portsmouth

  • Obama Still Fresh

    I was so impressed by Obama's speech after the Iowa caucus, I decided to go and see him at Pease.  The atmosphere truly was electric, and the crowd fired up indeed.  His speech was genuine, and still fresh. He was not smug about his win in Iowa,...full write-up

  • Wow. Obama. Still Feels Like Cheating, But Powerful!

    So as of last night, I was a Joe Biden supporter. It was heart-breaking to see Joe and Chris Dodd drop out of the race because of their collective years of experience in the US Senate. I hope that they both have significant roles in whatever Democr...full write-up

  • Barack Back from Iowa

    I just returned from seeing Barack Obama at Pease Tradeport in Portsmouth.  I've now seen the top 3 Democratic contenders, including Hillary and Edwards, so I've got lots to think about over the weekend.  Barack was exhausted but clearly thrilled...full write-up

  • Edwards - inspiring, but conflicting promises?

    I saw the same Edwards rally that a few have mentioned - a very long wait, a surprise concert by Jackson Browne and Bonnie Raitt, a too-long introductory speech by a gentleman who never introduced himself, but is a union activist and was very eager...full write-up

  • Obamarama

    Obama's staff called to ask me to drive to Rochester to see the candidate.  They did not tell me about the Exeter (my home town) round table and said Portsmouth was booked.  It was snowing.  I went to Portsmouth. I took my son, 21.  The l...full write-up

  • You Gotta Love New Hampshire this time of year!

    Though already committed to another candidate, I like to see the others given the chance.  I went to see John Edwards in Portsmouth on Wednesday, but unfortunately the event ran so late I had to leave.  That same afternoon I ran into Ron Paul twice...full write-up

  • John Edwards speaks with passion... but what is his message?

    I went to the Frank Jones Center in Portsmouth, NH to see John Edwards speak.  Let me begin that Edwards was late to the event.  Now, it's understandable to be somewhat late to an event, politicians are often in high demand and you still have to ...full write-up

  • Bill Richardson - Down to earth and expertly qualified

    I had read the "resumes" for the major candidates and was very impressed by Bill Richardson.  So Thursday night I went to see him at the Bowl-a-Roma in Portsmouth.  I took my 9 year old son with me.  The snow had just started so the crow...full write-up

  • Edwards: Sincere, But Leaves Me Still Searching

    I arrived late, but somehow got squeezed right to the front until I was standing about 15 feet from the stage.  Actor Peter Coyote introduced Bonnie Raitt and Jackson Browne who sang 4 or 5 songs as a warm-up for John Edwards.  I wasn't sure why h...full write-up

  • "Do you want a president who isn't qualified to be secretary of state?"

    I went in undecided, and I walked out confident that I could, should, and will vote for Joe Biden in the primary on January 5th. Previous to yesterday, I would say any one of the following about him: “He’s brilliant, but he isn’t getting any tr...full write-up
