It's raining here in New England. Steady, light rain that rustles through the leaves. These are usually great days for sleeping in, if you didn't go to bed a 9:30 pm! So, up with the birds, I was.
There's a county Democratic picnic this afternoon, couple of towns over. It's a little more important to attend because it's raining, I think. I'm not sure who the speakers are, but we're sure to see Jeanne Shaheen, Carol Shea-Porter, and maybe Lynch.
I would add that Lynch disappoints me sometimes. He has a good reputation in our state as a steady steward of government. He is popular. But he rarely helps with other Dem campaigns. The argument is always, "he wants his coattails to do the work." He's a two-term governor...time to tuck the shirts in and get to work.
It's a little curious what these gatherings are about. I mock the Repubs for marching in lockstep with all their candidates, yet I'm about to do something similar. The concept of attaching myself to a political party is not comforting. I'd like to have more options, but simply do not.
Where's the umbrella?
