In New Hampshire, House Incumbents Try to Prevent Another Flip of Seats


Carol Shea-Porter and Ann McLane Kuster are locked in tight re-election battles with opponents who are eager to tie them to President Obama, who has a 40 percent approval rating here.
They are being tied to Obama's unpopular policies not his person.  That is important to remember in judging why they are losing.  The policies they have embraced are not working and have made things worse for many people.  Some in the media have tried to sugar coat the despised "Affordable Care" Act but the people who are having to pay more for less are not happy.  It is not just a botched roll out that is the problem.  For many people the program itself really sucks.
