Catapult Adopts Jeanne Shaheen Looking like revenge will be
sweet for Jeanne Shaheen
and the New Hampshire Democrats, Blue Catapult has made her our first adopted
candidate for the 2008 election cycle. Polls show her avenging her very narrow
2002 loss to John Sununu, with a Granite State poll having her lead Sununu 54%-37%.
The former popular Governor is both effective and intelligent and will be critical
in moving the state of New Hampshire into the Blue column in November.
