Hodes really should be working to represent us in this financial crisis rather than working on his run in 2010. Shea-Porter and Shaheen should be doing likewise. Th4e word "moderate" does not fit any of these "Obama Sheep". They all lack the stuff to vote for what is right. They should all fall like dominos following the Treasury Secretary. I am P--sed that all of my costs have increased. Like the price of cigarettes being trippled bt these tax and spend liberals!

American Conservative Rankings? Who cares what they think? Just another special interest group with an agenda.

Jean Shaheen is the only current member of the NH congressional delegation to accept campaign contributions from AIG. Number 1 recipient of AIG's largess was Obama, #2 was Chris Dodd and #3 was John McCain. The list of 2008 congressional recipients of AIG's largess is staggering. See for yourself at opensecrets dot org. Then again, ignorance is bliss!!

LOL @ Shaheen being a moderate Democrat....that's worth a laugh in itself...
- Chris King, Manchester, New Hampshire
C'mon DiStaso.. CSP beat craig in 2006, not 2008.
- Jack Pierre, Manchester
Is this a joke? Are these people really trying to pass themselves off as any kind of conservative or even moderate? The American Conservative Rankings of the members of this cartel are:
Carper 8
Lincoln 10
Bayh 12
Bennett 75
Kohl 0
Landreiu 40
McCaskill 8
Nelson(Ne) 32
Nelson(Fl) 4
Warner 60
Lieberman 8

Guess again, John.
Just because Shaheen can not stand on her own and does what her handlers tell her does NOT make her a moderate.

Shaheen has the "Moderate Dems Working Group," Gregg has the "Senate Budget Watch Group," and Obama has White-House workshops on fiscal responsibility. Everyone now has political cover to spend out-of-control.

I notice that Carol Shea-Porter didn't join Paul Hodes in joining the group of 65 Democrat representatives who signed a letter to Attorney General Eric Holder, putting him on notice that they will oppose any new ban on so-called "assault weapons".
Not very moderate of you, Ms. Shea-Porter.
