And Why I Love New Hampshire

Growing up as a kid, my family took a few vacations to New Hampshire and they remain some of my favorite childhood memories.  So I've always had a soft spot for that state, and it warms my heart to pass on this article.

Perry Heckled As Campaign Shifts Into New Phase

It's time to realize that Texas or the Iowa straw poll might not actually reflect the typical American voter.  He was met by protestors during campaign stops with the following messages:

"Hands off our Medicare," about 35 protesters chanted as the Republican presidential candidate shook hands outside Popovers on the Square a popular local eatery.

And:

"Stop attacking middle class families Rick Perry," a man shouted at the Texas governor as he ordered a popover pastry.

But the best of all, from the mouths of babes...

One woman who did not appear to be affiliated with the protesters ushered her son up to the governor and prompted him with questions for Perry like "do you believe in evolution?"

"It's a theory that's out there," Perry told the child. "It's got some gaps in it. In Texas we teach both Creationism and evolution."

The mother then told her young son: "Ask him why he doesn't believe in science," as Perry continued into the cafe.

Okay, not quite from the mouths of babes but I still got a kick out of it.
