At first I thought running a self-financed campaign (one hundred and eight dollars so far) for governor under the Flatlander ticket would be easy. No special interests to pander to and no wasted time talking…

You would think with an Irish name like Brendan I’d be pretty excited about St. Patrick’s Day. At the risk of losing a few of my friends who are fanatical about such things, I am…

It’s been awhile since I came up with some new ideas for lottery scratch tickets here in New Hampshire. It’s not that I need to come up with ideas; no one is asking me to,…

I know you have barely, if at all, gotten over the New Hampshire Primary season, but here I am making my pitch to you for my run this year to be Governor of New Hampshire…
