Jeanne Shaheen lives in Madbury! That's the next town over from Dover. She can't be that dumb. And Cullen wasn't the State GOP Chair until this year, for those of you who didn't know. He's done a pretty good job, considering all the out of state money pouring into Democrat coffers here and out of state liberal activists moving here to turn the state blue and redefine "New Hampshire Values".

I didnt think anyone could drive around Dover for an hour and not drive on every street in town.
- Nick, Manchester

If only she had askes me. I'd have been happy to tell her where to go.
- Doug, Alton

Of Course we all know what really happened...she blew off the event and lied about it.
- David, Manchester

Isn't a leader supposed to be prepared? Rochester Rd in Dover is pretty darned easy to find. Was it the street number she couldn't find? Didn't she not leave early enough in case she had a problem finding it? Why didn't she call them for help after the first 5 to 10 minutes of being lost instead of driving around for an hour? Mmm,, something doesn't pass the smell test here. Perhaps it just wasn't important enough to her? If it were she would have found the place.
- Rob, Manchester

This article is amateur hour at best and this is comming from an Independent not a Democrat. Cullen's leadership of the Republican Party in NH has been lousy to say the least. They lost two congressman in the last election and the state government is filled with Democrats. Maybe he should stop the childish comments and focus on getting his party back to their principals which is limited government and low taxes.
- Kyle, Bedford

i wonder who wrote this story - no byline... hmmm... a hatchet-job/story like this really needs a by-line.
- Tom, Manchester

Big deal, everybody gets losts from time to time. One or two short sentences from Cullen would be ok, but all this seems a bit amateurish.
- Andrew, Manchester

Shaheen has been heading in the wrong direction for a lonnnnnnnnnng time. So what's new?
- Pamela, Washington, NH

Hattaway...great comeback! It seems the polished spin-meister extraordinaire is back with a vengence.

Cullen gets in two great jabs and an overhand right and Hattaway comes back with a "hey ref, aren't two clean shots to the head below the belt?"
- Kevin, VT

I bet John Sununu wouldn't get lost in Dover.
- Ann, Dover
