OK, now that the convention is over... It's time for us to get back to work! And for us here at C4O, this means getting more & better Democrats elected. So today, I'd like to introduce you to a truly awesome person who will make a fantastic Senator from New Hampshire.

Hi all. I don't have a lot of time to write a long prose FHA so will give a bullet pointed highlights list to ya for now.

PORTSMOUTH

-I got a slightly later than planned start and stupidly forgot to take the address of the Clinton Portsmouth NH office with me in the car. I realized this some where near the border so figured it was not worth going back.

As you all know there are other races happening in 2008 beyond the presidential race, and so far no one in that race has inspired me to get involved. However, I think it is important to keep our eye's on the ball as related to the House and Senate in 2008 as well. One strong potential pick up is the rapidly bluing state of New Hampshire. There John Sununu, son of Bush MkIs Chief of Staff by the same name, is up for reelection. So far the presumed Democratic candidate is former Governor, Harvard Professor, and National chair of the abysmal Kerry 2004 campaign, Jeanne Shaheen.

Warning on Iran

By Dave R. Choate

"This administration's foreign policy, in my mind, has not been adept," Clark said. "I've been saying for years now that the Iraq war was one we did not have to fight, and with Iran the military option should be the last resort, after this country uses diplomacy and economic leverage."
