CLOSE NH GUBERNATORIAL RACE

Here is a suprisingly even-handed overview from the Boston Globe of our close gubernatorial race here in New Hampshire. The latest polls show a mixed picture, although I still think Governor Benson has the edge. As stated in the article, the Democrats have gone back to what is a winning formula for them by nominating someone who says he will veto an income or sales tax. Still, no Governor who ever wanted a second two-year term has ever been denied one in our state's history. Of course, no one down 3-0 in a best-of-seven MLB playoff series ever came back before this year, either.
