Dave Weigel, New Hampshire Primary & OccupyNH

January 11, 2012

Romney, Paul and the rest…Dave Weigel, Slate.com, delivers all the news from the new Hampshire Clown Car primary.  Also, we check in with Occupy New Hampshire.  Use this post as today’s thread.  Click thru to read a show update plus, Representative Adam Smith on NDAA and the trailer to Newt’s Romney attack movie.  

Opening the show today, Sam talks about the force-placed insurance practices of banks as New York State regulators look into whether banks engaged in fraudulent practices.   Our guest, Dave Weigel from Slate achieves an amazing feat by making NH Primary coverage interesting!  He talks Romney’s win, Huntsman’s parental purse strings and the wily political stylings of Ron Paul.  Matt from Occupy Manchester tells of the successful actions held during the primary.  Plus, lots of actions coming up for the Occupy Movement including a huge west coast port action and the national day of action called by OccupytheDream.
