We all know that the NH house, senate, governors council, governor, and both congressional seats are now all held by Democrats for the first time together since 1874. In the next election, it is very likely that Governor Jeanne Shaheen will be a very strong challenger for incumbent Senator John E Sununu.

Here's my question. Was the big New Hampshire Democratic win due mostly to a dislike for President Bush and the war in Iraq, or was it due to state wide unhappiness with increasing property taxes which are increasing faster than people's income?
