I was the sole general chairman of the New Hampshire campaign of Pat Buchanan in the winter of 1995-6.
I was alone because my co-chairman, faced with unmoving single-digit poll numbers, had fled for the Dole campaign.
I remember Pat’s consternation about our seemingly stagnant poll numbers. And yet, when New Hampshire voters began focusing on the election, those polls became meaningless. Just a few weeks before the primary.
The “pitch fork” brigade carried New Hampshire. And I am convinced that had there not been shenanigans in South Carolina, a GOP under a Buchanan banner would have defeated Clinton and rewritten history — unlike — the sleazy stand-for-nothing Dole.
So — what do you want to know about New Hampshire?
