It’s still too early to even guess who will win the Republican Primary for Congress in District One.

So until the primary is over I’m not going to invest too much time writing about either Jeb Bradley or John Stephen.

Nevertheless, looming questions await both of them.

Jeb Bradley himself has brought to light questions about whether monies that John Stephen claims he saved taxpayers (while heading up HHS) were really a flim-flam that is going to cost the state of NH in the long run.

That’s the problem with hotly contested primaries. I was surprised that Jeb was the first of the two candidates to attack so openly.

But Mr. Bradley has loads of skeletons in his closet too. One that you never hear about is his record against making Tricare ( the militaries health insurance program) available to our National Guard.

Jeb makes a lot of hay our of supporting the troops, but in this war that is being largely fought by the Guard it seems that not everyone in combat is considered a troop.

I don’t think that Mr. Stephen will get into that, but if anyone hears otherwise, let me know.
