Rumors Allard May Resign
We present this with the grain of salt appropriate for a totally unconfirmed and seemingly improbable rumor.
It has been suggested that Sen. Wayne Allard may resign his Senate seat in the next three weeks to make way for an appointed replacement by outgoing Governor Bill Owens (R).
Potential replacements are the usual Republican suspects mentioned in
the Big Line (left), including--and we're not making this up--Bill Owens.
Enough well-placed people have mentioned it that we felt obligated to
report it. It would be an eyebrow-raising maneuver to say the least,
and we're pretty sure the Owens self-appointment part is meant to be a
joke.

Clinton Gets First Major Endorsement In New Hampshire
Sen. Hillary Clinton got her first major endorsement in New Hampshire today from a longtime political veteran who supported Howard Dean in 2004.
Veteran New Hampshire political operative Rep. Jim Splaine, state
represenative of Portsmoth and Newington, strongly endorsed a Hillary
Clinton candidacy in his NH Insider blog today. Splaine, sponsor of New
Hampshire's First In The Nation primary legislation, has been involved
in the presidential campaigns of a number of candidates over the years
including John F. Kennedy, Lyndon Johnson, Bobby Kennedy, George
McGovern, Sargent Shriver, Ted Kennedy, Walter Mondale, Jessie Jackson,
Bill Clinton, Al Gore, and Howard Dean. More
