NH Political Report - James Pindell
Manchester attorney Brad Cook writes about First District Congressional candidate Bob Bestani in his column for the New Hampshire Business Review this week, only after recalling a few thoughts on Sen. Ted Kennedy.
“Those considering the Republican challenge to Carol Shea-Porter might compare Bestani’s résumé with that of Guinta, who has served for four years as mayor and has little, if any, experience in business or government administration apart from those four years.”
Robert M. Bestani of Newmarket, a 61-year-old businessman and government official/academic has an interesting résumé. Those considering the Republican challenge to Carol Shea-Porter might compare Bestani’s résumé with that of Guinta, who has served for four years as mayor and has little, if any, experience in business or government administration apart from those four years.
Despite the President’s claims, his health care plan will not control costs because it fails to address issues such as tort reform, illegal immigrants and misguided incentives. He also needlessly politicized the debate by questioning to motives of the representatives who have legitimate concerns with his plan. As a financial expert, it is clear to me that his plan will also significantly add to our budget deficit and leave the taxpayers footing a very expensive bill – one we cannot afford.
There are so many serious issues confronting us such as taxes, education, health care, the economy, transportation, and federal spending. Each issue deserves more than a thirty second sound bite. Our differences should be aired in public forums in an open discussion of ideas. I think voters deserve to hear directly from the candidates as to how they will represent this great state.
