As you know, I support HB 847, but I am also a realist and I expect Governor Lynch to veto it.

Here's why.

He knows he will easily win reelection againts Senator Joe Kenney (R) Wakefield, so Governor Lynch is now thinking beyond to the 2010 election verses Senator Gregg.

Gov Lynch has recently been unusually supportive of John McCain, here in NH.

After HB 847 passed the NH House on Jan 31, Gov Lynch said he was not sure that Winnipesaukee needs a speed limit, and would look at the bill if it made it to his desk. He said that the existing safe passage law was probabl;y all thats needed.

Sen Kenney voted yes to HB 847, and this would be an easy, black & white, issue to show how Gov Lynch is different than Republican Sen Kenney.

Last year, Gov Lynch vetoed a manditory seat belt law for 18+ year old, adults.

In order to beat Senator Gregg, who has a good solid base of support, Gov Lynch needs to prove he is no nanny-stater, liberal, Democrat. The seat belts and speed limits vetos will be two high visibility campaign issues as he tries to become a US Senator.

.....

For the record, that was not me that wrote that nasty letter in the Union Leader from F L Less. Someone crafted that letter and attributed it me, but it was not me. Someone stole my name! Just like Peter Limone did 35 years for a murder he did not commit, I'm getting 'ghouled' for a letter I did not write.......!
