I'm booked for New Hampshire...

Flying up to spend the weekend before the Primary taking in the field of candidates. This will be the sixth Primary we've come up to visit. Part of it is political tourism and part is getting a read on which campaigns have their act together and which do not...

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden

Enjoy your trip. If you get a chance, hit the Flatbread Pizza in downtown Portsmouth. It's delish.

As I've said in the past, we're partly political tourists and partly political funders.

Fundamentally though, all you need is a free weekend and the money for transportation to either Iowa or NH.

I wish I could travel more, but I have to stick to Iowa, Minnesota to kind of get my political travels in. I am hoping to be in the eastern part of the country next year on a vacation. I have always wanted to see those northeast states in the fall.. All the colors.. been a dream of mine for years.. maybe hubby and I will get a chance to catch some of the political flavors of the area then also since it is an election year. I envy you... have fun!!! and bring back reports. (I trust reports from people on the ground much more than polls!!)
