WEBVTT

1
00:00:01.159 --> 00:00:06.080
<v Speaker 1>It's night time with Dan Ray. I'm telling Easy Boston's radio.

2
00:00:08.279 --> 00:00:10.480
<v Speaker 2>All right, welcome back everyone, and again I want to

3
00:00:10.519 --> 00:00:14.439
<v Speaker 2>give that number, that long COVID number, one more time.

4
00:00:15.160 --> 00:00:15.240
<v Speaker 3>Uh.

5
00:00:16.160 --> 00:00:18.960
<v Speaker 2>It doesn't hurt folks to give them a call and

6
00:00:19.079 --> 00:00:22.600
<v Speaker 2>see what services might be available or what you know,

7
00:00:22.920 --> 00:00:26.600
<v Speaker 2>what might help you, Uh six one seven five two

8
00:00:26.760 --> 00:00:31.280
<v Speaker 2>five three six six five one of the things. And

9
00:00:31.399 --> 00:00:36.479
<v Speaker 2>I'm gonna say this and not reference uh any criticism,

10
00:00:36.960 --> 00:00:39.600
<v Speaker 2>but sometimes when you get in a situation where you're

11
00:00:39.679 --> 00:00:47.079
<v Speaker 2>really debilitated by this horrible, horrible, but it's much better

12
00:00:47.840 --> 00:00:52.240
<v Speaker 2>to say, Okay, I've told my story, but I want

13
00:00:52.280 --> 00:00:56.799
<v Speaker 2>to listen because maybe, maybe, just maybe there's someone who

14
00:00:56.880 --> 00:01:02.359
<v Speaker 2>can provide some help. And Julie Sullivan is great, I think.

15
00:01:02.520 --> 00:01:06.799
<v Speaker 2>And she sent me more material today than anyone. She

16
00:01:06.959 --> 00:01:10.359
<v Speaker 2>pull pulled stuff together for me. She was a great guest. Uh,

17
00:01:10.560 --> 00:01:15.280
<v Speaker 2>answered the questions extraordinarily empathetic. If you've missed the program,

18
00:01:15.480 --> 00:01:17.519
<v Speaker 2>you may want to just go to Nightside and demand

19
00:01:17.560 --> 00:01:20.239
<v Speaker 2>tomorrow and listen to the nine o'clock hour. She's the

20
00:01:20.319 --> 00:01:22.400
<v Speaker 2>program manager. She's been there a long time at the

21
00:01:22.439 --> 00:01:25.480
<v Speaker 2>COVID Recovery Center in Brigham and Women's Hospital. The phone

22
00:01:25.560 --> 00:01:30.000
<v Speaker 2>number six one seven five two five three six six five.

23
00:01:30.200 --> 00:01:33.760
<v Speaker 2>Rob has written that number down. I had people yesterday

24
00:01:33.799 --> 00:01:36.319
<v Speaker 2>who called me looking for numbers. I had asked that

25
00:01:37.760 --> 00:01:39.920
<v Speaker 2>Rob write a number down. I'm sure he did, and

26
00:01:40.120 --> 00:01:42.840
<v Speaker 2>I've got to now get back tomorrow and answer emails

27
00:01:42.920 --> 00:01:46.280
<v Speaker 2>to people who you know I want to help. One

28
00:01:46.319 --> 00:01:48.079
<v Speaker 2>of the things I want to do in this program,

29
00:01:48.159 --> 00:01:52.920
<v Speaker 2>obviously is entertain and inform and all of that, and

30
00:01:53.040 --> 00:01:57.560
<v Speaker 2>have good conversations. But I also occasionally, or maybe even

31
00:01:57.599 --> 00:02:00.599
<v Speaker 2>a little more than occasionally, do something that might help.

32
00:02:01.000 --> 00:02:03.680
<v Speaker 2>We talked about mass energy bills. By the way, I

33
00:02:03.799 --> 00:02:07.760
<v Speaker 2>got on the phone this morning and I changed my

34
00:02:07.920 --> 00:02:13.319
<v Speaker 2>energy supplier. Easy, easy to do, and I went from

35
00:02:13.879 --> 00:02:20.919
<v Speaker 2>paying about twenty five cents a killowatt hour down to

36
00:02:20.960 --> 00:02:24.639
<v Speaker 2>about twelve and a half cents, basically cut it in half. Now,

37
00:02:24.759 --> 00:02:27.280
<v Speaker 2>that don't necessarily cut my bill in half, but it will.

38
00:02:27.800 --> 00:02:30.439
<v Speaker 2>It will save me some money. And I'm in a

39
00:02:30.560 --> 00:02:35.879
<v Speaker 2>nine month contract with a different company. The lowest rates

40
00:02:36.000 --> 00:02:40.199
<v Speaker 2>that I found were with a company called Constellation, And

41
00:02:40.520 --> 00:02:44.319
<v Speaker 2>I got to tell you, I'm not pushing for any

42
00:02:44.520 --> 00:02:48.879
<v Speaker 2>specific company, but do your research mass energy rates dot com.

43
00:02:50.120 --> 00:02:53.080
<v Speaker 2>Don't just sit there and pay those big bills. Do

44
00:02:53.240 --> 00:02:56.800
<v Speaker 2>what you can to and we talked about that last night.

45
00:02:57.039 --> 00:02:58.919
<v Speaker 2>You need to listen to the two hours last night

46
00:02:59.000 --> 00:03:01.240
<v Speaker 2>our night sat in Demand if you want. I'm not

47
00:03:01.319 --> 00:03:04.360
<v Speaker 2>going to replay the hours right now now. In terms

48
00:03:04.400 --> 00:03:07.240
<v Speaker 2>of an announcement, Rob, we should have had a drum

49
00:03:07.360 --> 00:03:11.639
<v Speaker 2>roll here or something, but I would like all of

50
00:03:11.719 --> 00:03:14.680
<v Speaker 2>the night side listeners, and even if you're not a

51
00:03:14.840 --> 00:03:18.960
<v Speaker 2>nightside listener, to know that every couple of years we

52
00:03:19.080 --> 00:03:22.960
<v Speaker 2>try to do something that gives night side listeners an opportunity.

53
00:03:23.039 --> 00:03:25.479
<v Speaker 2>I can meet some of you. Many of you have

54
00:03:25.639 --> 00:03:29.280
<v Speaker 2>come to know by name over the phone. But we

55
00:03:29.680 --> 00:03:34.400
<v Speaker 2>did a couple of trips to Polar Park to see

56
00:03:34.439 --> 00:03:38.719
<v Speaker 2>baseball games. But I thought this year we're going to

57
00:03:38.759 --> 00:03:40.439
<v Speaker 2>do something different. And here's what we're going to do

58
00:03:41.199 --> 00:03:43.319
<v Speaker 2>on Sunday. And you may want to make a note

59
00:03:43.360 --> 00:03:45.960
<v Speaker 2>of this, Okay, and Rob, you know as well as

60
00:03:46.039 --> 00:03:47.639
<v Speaker 2>I do, if you could note a couple of things

61
00:03:47.680 --> 00:03:52.639
<v Speaker 2>here in case people call in Sunday April twenty seven,

62
00:03:52.759 --> 00:03:58.039
<v Speaker 2>that's the Sunday after Easter, April twenty seventh, twenty twenty five,

63
00:03:59.000 --> 00:04:03.000
<v Speaker 2>We're going to have a night side brunch at eleven o'clock.

64
00:04:03.159 --> 00:04:05.520
<v Speaker 2>I'm going to run from about eleven to one. However,

65
00:04:05.800 --> 00:04:08.000
<v Speaker 2>however long you want to stay eleven to one thirty,

66
00:04:09.319 --> 00:04:13.919
<v Speaker 2>we will be entertained by the Winnaker b ind Bill

67
00:04:14.039 --> 00:04:18.680
<v Speaker 2>and Bo Winnaker. They have performed at this location for

68
00:04:18.759 --> 00:04:20.720
<v Speaker 2>about ten months and they tell me it is a

69
00:04:21.000 --> 00:04:26.360
<v Speaker 2>fabulous restaurant. It is called Neroli n E R O

70
00:04:26.720 --> 00:04:30.079
<v Speaker 2>l I. They have a brunch option. If you want

71
00:04:30.120 --> 00:04:32.360
<v Speaker 2>to go all in and have brunch with us, that's great.

72
00:04:32.920 --> 00:04:35.800
<v Speaker 2>They also have a separate breakfast menu and a lunch menu,

73
00:04:35.959 --> 00:04:38.399
<v Speaker 2>so if you just want to have something simple, something

74
00:04:38.480 --> 00:04:41.800
<v Speaker 2>simple pancakes, not going to break the bank. That no,

75
00:04:41.879 --> 00:04:43.959
<v Speaker 2>will the brunch break the bank, believe it or not.

76
00:04:44.160 --> 00:04:47.560
<v Speaker 2>I mean, this is really a great place. I've not

77
00:04:47.759 --> 00:04:52.600
<v Speaker 2>been there, but I trust Bill Winnaker implicitly. They also

78
00:04:52.639 --> 00:04:54.240
<v Speaker 2>have a lunch menu, so if you sell me said,

79
00:04:54.279 --> 00:04:56.680
<v Speaker 2>oh my noom time, eleven o'clock, eleven thirty, I want

80
00:04:56.680 --> 00:04:58.879
<v Speaker 2>a hamburger, they got they got that on the menu

81
00:04:58.959 --> 00:05:02.439
<v Speaker 2>as well. Here there's the number you need to call

82
00:05:02.519 --> 00:05:06.000
<v Speaker 2>to make reservations. Okay, and please don't make a reservation

83
00:05:06.279 --> 00:05:10.879
<v Speaker 2>unless you intend to come, because it's a big location.

84
00:05:11.680 --> 00:05:16.720
<v Speaker 2>But our area will be relatively small, and I'm gonna

85

107
00:06:32.439 --> 00:06:35.480
<v Speaker 2>is tops in my books. Anyway, Sunday, April twenty seventh,

108
00:06:35.800 --> 00:06:38.399
<v Speaker 2>twenty and twenty five, a little over a month from now,

109
00:06:38.439 --> 00:06:40.720
<v Speaker 2>at eleven o'clock, looking forward to meeting as many people.

110
00:06:41.000 --> 00:06:42.920
<v Speaker 2>You don't have to be a nightside listener to come.

111
00:06:43.560 --> 00:06:46.759
<v Speaker 2>You can bring your friends, uh. And I believe that

112
00:06:47.639 --> 00:06:51.439
<v Speaker 2>our producer Lightning aka Marida will join us. I think

113
00:06:51.560 --> 00:06:53.639
<v Speaker 2>she will be there. I don't know if Rob is

114
00:06:53.680 --> 00:06:57.639
<v Speaker 2>going to venture down from north of Boston, but certainly

115
00:06:57.680 --> 00:06:59.519
<v Speaker 2>we'd love to have him come down as well, and

116
00:06:59.680 --> 00:07:01.399
<v Speaker 2>love to have as many of it there as possible.

117
00:07:01.720 --> 00:07:04.240
<v Speaker 2>The capacity is immense. I mean, we could have one

118
00:07:04.279 --> 00:07:08.600
<v Speaker 2>hundred people there easily, and by the way, we could

119
00:07:08.720 --> 00:07:11.560
<v Speaker 2>have a hundred people by within a week, and once

120
00:07:11.639 --> 00:07:15.680
<v Speaker 2>those reservations close off, that's it. They haven't limited us yet,

121
00:07:16.279 --> 00:07:21.959
<v Speaker 2>but I would. I made my reservations today, doctor Good, Seriously,

122
00:07:22.439 --> 00:07:26.360
<v Speaker 2>trust me, I did. All right, let's move on here

123
00:07:26.879 --> 00:07:31.040
<v Speaker 2>to the matters at hand. Big story out of New

124
00:07:31.120 --> 00:07:35.560
<v Speaker 2>Hampshire today. Now some of you might have missed it,

125
00:07:36.279 --> 00:07:38.279
<v Speaker 2>and if you did, of course, My job is to

126
00:07:38.360 --> 00:07:40.720
<v Speaker 2>make sure that you're up to date on what's going on.

127
00:07:41.839 --> 00:07:45.800
<v Speaker 2>The senior senator, I think she is the senior Senator

128
00:07:45.839 --> 00:07:50.519
<v Speaker 2>from New Hampshire. Former New Hampshire Governor Jean Shaheen announced

129
00:07:50.519 --> 00:07:54.720
<v Speaker 2>today that she will not seek re election. Now, what

130
00:07:54.959 --> 00:07:58.600
<v Speaker 2>makes that interesting, Well, what makes it interesting is New

131
00:07:58.680 --> 00:08:03.879
<v Speaker 2>Hampshire is so it's called the Purple State. It currently

132
00:08:04.000 --> 00:08:09.759
<v Speaker 2>is represented by two Democratic senators and two members of

133
00:08:09.839 --> 00:08:14.040
<v Speaker 2>the House Democrats, so all four members of the congressional

134
00:08:14.160 --> 00:08:18.759
<v Speaker 2>delegation are Democrats. Chris Pappus is a congressman in the south,

135
00:08:20.319 --> 00:08:24.000
<v Speaker 2>Maggie Goodlander is a congressman in sort of the district

136
00:08:24.120 --> 00:08:26.480
<v Speaker 2>is kind of cut down the middle, but there's really

137
00:08:26.560 --> 00:08:29.120
<v Speaker 2>kind of a southeast district in a northwest district in

138
00:08:29.199 --> 00:08:33.960
<v Speaker 2>New Hampshire. And the two senators out there, Maggie Hassen

139
00:08:34.080 --> 00:08:41.240
<v Speaker 2>and Jean Shaheen. Now, Sahen announced today that she has decided,

140
00:08:42.159 --> 00:08:44.000
<v Speaker 2>which she has every right to do. She's going to

141
00:08:44.039 --> 00:08:46.159
<v Speaker 2>serve out her term to twenty twenty six. But that

142
00:08:46.200 --> 00:08:50.120
<v Speaker 2>will be an open set. And let's listen to a

143
00:08:50.200 --> 00:08:52.320
<v Speaker 2>little bit of this. Rob Let's go first to twenty

144
00:08:52.399 --> 00:08:52.960
<v Speaker 2>three A.

145
00:08:54.559 --> 00:08:58.039
<v Speaker 4>To my remarkable and dedicated staff, and to all those

146
00:08:58.080 --> 00:08:59.799
<v Speaker 4>who have partnered with us over the years.

<v Speaker 5>Thank you.

148
00:09:01.919 --> 00:09:06.399
<v Speaker 4>Together we have made a difference. Above all, thanks to

149

<v Speaker 4>my family who have always been by my side, to

150
00:09:10.120 --> 00:09:13.360
<v Speaker 4>my husband Billy, who's been there through good times and bad,

151
00:09:14.320 --> 00:09:18.559
<v Speaker 4>our daughters Stephanie, Stacy and Molly, our sons in law Craig,

152
00:09:18.639 --> 00:09:23.320
<v Speaker 4>Ryan and Hugh, and our seven wonderful grandchildren. They're the best.

153
00:09:26.200 --> 00:09:34.320
<v Speaker 2>Okay, thanks very much. She talks about urgent challenges, but

154
00:09:34.559 --> 00:09:37.360
<v Speaker 2>she's not going to be there, and this is her

155
00:09:37.480 --> 00:09:39.799
<v Speaker 2>comment at twenty three, b Rob.

156
00:09:40.360 --> 00:09:44.159
<v Speaker 4>There are urgent challenges ahead, both here at home and

157
00:09:44.279 --> 00:09:49.399
<v Speaker 4>around the world. And while I'm not seeking reelection, believe me,

158
00:09:49.799 --> 00:09:54.200
<v Speaker 4>I am not retiring. I am determined to work every

159
00:09:54.320 --> 00:09:57.600
<v Speaker 4>day over the next two years and beyond to continue

160
00:09:57.639 --> 00:09:59.519
<v Speaker 4>to try and make a difference for the people of

161
00:09:59.600 --> 00:10:02.519
<v Speaker 4>New hamp sure in this country. I hope you'll join

162
00:10:02.600 --> 00:10:03.399
<v Speaker 4>me in that effort.

163
00:10:06.159 --> 00:10:08.240
<v Speaker 2>Shehen, of course the former governor of New Hampshire, as

164
00:10:08.360 --> 00:10:12.320
<v Speaker 2>was Maggie Hassen Kelly aot. The current governor used to

165
00:10:12.360 --> 00:10:14.879
<v Speaker 2>be a US Senator. So it's sort of a small

166
00:10:15.080 --> 00:10:19.960
<v Speaker 2>pool that New Hampshire residents seem to rely upon both

167
00:10:20.039 --> 00:10:24.159
<v Speaker 2>for their state leadership as governor and their congressional leadership

168
00:10:24.240 --> 00:10:27.080
<v Speaker 2>in the Senate and in the House. She of course

169
00:10:29.000 --> 00:10:31.799
<v Speaker 2>a well written statement. I don't think this comes as

170
00:10:31.840 --> 00:10:37.720
<v Speaker 2>a stunning surprise, but it does change the landscape in

171
00:10:37.799 --> 00:10:41.200
<v Speaker 2>New Hampshire. We're going to talk about that. This is

172
00:10:41.279 --> 00:10:43.879
<v Speaker 2>her The last bite I will play from Jean Shaheen tonight,

173
00:10:44.600 --> 00:10:47.720
<v Speaker 2>Senator Jean Shaheen at cut twenty three c rob.

174
00:10:48.159 --> 00:10:51.840
<v Speaker 4>From the bottom of my heart, thank you New Hampshire.

175
00:10:53.399 --> 00:10:57.879
<v Speaker 4>Listening to your stories, being your champion, working with you

176
00:10:58.159 --> 00:11:03.039
<v Speaker 4>on the tough fights has been the honor of a lifetime,

177
00:11:04.519 --> 00:11:05.399
<v Speaker 4>and we'll keep at it.

178
00:11:07.320 --> 00:11:10.200
<v Speaker 2>By the way, for those of you who are listening

179
00:11:10.320 --> 00:11:13.080
<v Speaker 2>and don't know New Hampshire, New Hampshire is a really

180
00:11:13.159 --> 00:11:18.000
<v Speaker 2>neat state. I mean it's a rural state in many respects.

181
00:11:18.080 --> 00:11:22.720
<v Speaker 2>It's got a big suburban tier in the southern part

182
00:11:22.759 --> 00:11:25.480
<v Speaker 2>of the state south of Manchester, and it has some

183
00:11:26.320 --> 00:11:29.480
<v Speaker 2>pretty big, good sized cities in terms of a state

184
00:11:29.639 --> 00:11:33.480
<v Speaker 2>the size of New Hampshire, Manchester and Portsmouth Salem conquered.

185
00:11:35.159 --> 00:11:39.840
<v Speaker 2>It is a winter wonderland. It is a well run state.

186
00:11:40.080 --> 00:11:43.440
<v Speaker 2>Democratic governors Republican governors have done a great job up

187
00:11:43.480 --> 00:11:47.519
<v Speaker 2>there over time, and they deserve a great replacement for

188
00:11:48.279 --> 00:11:51.159
<v Speaker 2>Jean Shaheen. And that's what we're going to talk about.

189
00:11:52.039 --> 00:11:54.600
<v Speaker 2>I want to hear from as many of you as possible,

190
00:11:54.679 --> 00:11:58.120
<v Speaker 2>because the US Senate right now is fifty three to

191
00:11:58.279 --> 00:12:02.840
<v Speaker 2>forty seven Republican, and that is a Senate that will

192
00:12:02.960 --> 00:12:05.600
<v Speaker 2>be in play in the twenty twenty sixth election. The

193
00:12:05.679 --> 00:12:08.759
<v Speaker 2>Republicans have an advantage obviously at this point they have

194
00:12:08.879 --> 00:12:12.519
<v Speaker 2>an advantage of six three, but fifty three forty seven.

195
00:12:13.159 --> 00:12:16.200
<v Speaker 2>There are already two other Democrats who have said they

196
00:12:16.240 --> 00:12:19.600
<v Speaker 2>are giving up their seats. This could be a year

197
00:12:19.759 --> 00:12:21.919
<v Speaker 2>for the Republicans, and of course it all depend in

198
00:12:22.039 --> 00:12:25.279
<v Speaker 2>large part upon how Donald Trump is doing. It could

199
00:12:25.320 --> 00:12:27.759
<v Speaker 2>be a year where the Republicans to open up their

200
00:12:27.840 --> 00:12:30.559
<v Speaker 2>lead and perhaps have the largest lead in the Senate

201
00:12:31.080 --> 00:12:35.200
<v Speaker 2>in many many years, again especially with three Democratic senators

202
00:12:35.240 --> 00:12:39.519
<v Speaker 2>now retiring, including Shahem or or conversely, it could go

203
00:12:39.639 --> 00:12:41.879
<v Speaker 2>the other way. I want to talk to you about

204
00:12:41.919 --> 00:12:44.320
<v Speaker 2>who you think should run up there on both sides,

205
00:12:45.399 --> 00:12:48.320
<v Speaker 2>Republican and Democrat. And also for those of you in

206
00:12:48.399 --> 00:12:52.320
<v Speaker 2>Massachusetts who pretty much realize that it doesn't make much

207
00:12:52.360 --> 00:12:55.679
<v Speaker 2>of an effort here in Massachusetts, the Democrats tend to win.

208
00:12:56.639 --> 00:12:59.159
<v Speaker 2>This is a play a way in which you could

209
00:12:59.200 --> 00:13:02.600
<v Speaker 2>have a tremendous impact, whether you're a Democrat or a Republican,

210
00:13:03.240 --> 00:13:05.519
<v Speaker 2>got in New Hampshire and campaign for whoever's running for

211
00:13:05.559 --> 00:13:09.799
<v Speaker 2>Senate up in New Hampshire. Let me tell you that

212
00:13:10.320 --> 00:13:14.559
<v Speaker 2>is a great opportunity. With that said, I'm going to

213
00:13:14.600 --> 00:13:16.879
<v Speaker 2>open up the phone line six one, seven, two, five,

214
00:13:16.960 --> 00:13:20.000
<v Speaker 2>four ten thirty six one seven, nine three one ten

215
00:13:20.080 --> 00:13:22.759
<v Speaker 2>thirty if you're from New Hampshire and you want to

216
00:13:22.799 --> 00:13:24.879
<v Speaker 2>flow a name, maybe a name that has been thought of,

217
00:13:24.960 --> 00:13:27.600
<v Speaker 2>maybe a name that hasn't been thought of. That's great.

218
00:13:28.399 --> 00:13:34.399
<v Speaker 2>On the Republican side, there are two major candidates who

219
00:13:34.440 --> 00:13:37.840
<v Speaker 2>could run. Former Governor Christan Unu I think would be

220
00:13:37.879 --> 00:13:40.519
<v Speaker 2>the odds on favorite if he were in He's been

221
00:13:40.519 --> 00:13:43.600
<v Speaker 2>elected four times up there as governor, his brother was

222
00:13:43.639 --> 00:13:46.200
<v Speaker 2>a US Senator from up there, from in New Hampshire,

223
00:13:46.559 --> 00:13:48.879
<v Speaker 2>and of course his dad before him had been the

224
00:13:48.960 --> 00:13:51.799
<v Speaker 2>governor of New Hampshire. And Christan Uno has just finished

225
00:13:51.840 --> 00:13:54.240
<v Speaker 2>eight years as governor and it did a great job

226
00:13:54.279 --> 00:13:57.440
<v Speaker 2>as governor. I think the best governor in the country

227
00:13:57.639 --> 00:14:03.039
<v Speaker 2>in my opinion. UH Scott, former Massachusetts senator is in

228
00:14:03.200 --> 00:14:08.440
<v Speaker 2>New Hampshire. Uh he has run once. Uh he in Massachusetts,

229
00:14:08.519 --> 00:14:11.039
<v Speaker 2>won a special election, then lost to Elizabeth Warren in

230
00:14:11.080 --> 00:14:16.440
<v Speaker 2>twenty twelve, and lost in New Hampshire when he took

231
00:14:16.480 --> 00:14:21.519
<v Speaker 2>on Maggie Hassen again. I think it would be Chris

232
00:14:21.600 --> 00:14:25.279
<v Speaker 2>Sunhu's race if he wants it, but there may be others,

233
00:14:25.519 --> 00:14:28.000
<v Speaker 2>so join the conversation. Six one, seven, two, five, four

234
00:14:28.039 --> 00:14:30.879
<v Speaker 2>to ten thirty six one seven, nine, three one ten thirty.

235
00:14:31.360 --> 00:14:34.399
<v Speaker 2>I get excited about this because what this means is

236
00:14:35.240 --> 00:14:39.039
<v Speaker 2>that New Hampshire, Little old New Hampshire maybe is no

237
00:14:39.120 --> 00:14:42.440
<v Speaker 2>longer a presidential battleground state, but it's maybe one of

238
00:14:42.759 --> 00:14:47.519
<v Speaker 2>zap ground zero for the twenty twenty six Senate races.

239
00:14:47.679 --> 00:14:50.039
<v Speaker 2>Every year, every two years, a third of the US

240
00:14:50.080 --> 00:14:52.600
<v Speaker 2>Senate turns over. We'll be back on nightside. Let's talk

241
00:14:52.679 --> 00:14:54.519
<v Speaker 2>some politics. Want to hear from you in New Hampshire

242
00:14:54.679 --> 00:14:56.279
<v Speaker 2>who you would like to see in the Senate to

243
00:14:56.360 --> 00:14:59.159
<v Speaker 2>represent your interest with coming back on nightside.

244
00:15:00.159 --> 00:15:02.960
<v Speaker 1>Back to Dan ray Line from the Window World night

245
00:15:03.039 --> 00:15:05.919
<v Speaker 1>Side Studios on w b Z News Radio.

246
00:15:06.360 --> 00:15:10.720
<v Speaker 2>All right, let's see what folks think about uh this race.

247
00:15:10.799 --> 00:15:13.720
<v Speaker 2>I mean this, this will be a very closely watched

248
00:15:14.200 --> 00:15:18.000
<v Speaker 2>national race in twenty twenty six. No presidential race in

249
00:15:18.080 --> 00:15:24.440
<v Speaker 2>twenty twenty six, but a watted stake. Christine is in Denham, Massachusetts. Christine,

250
00:15:24.440 --> 00:15:26.840
<v Speaker 2>what's your thoughts on what's going on up in New Hampshire?

251
00:15:26.840 --> 00:15:28.200
<v Speaker 2>And it's going to get interesting.

252
00:15:29.519 --> 00:15:31.879
<v Speaker 6>It's going to get interesting. I think Scott Brown is

253
00:15:31.919 --> 00:15:33.320
<v Speaker 6>going to put his foot in the door off.

254
00:15:34.879 --> 00:15:35.600
<v Speaker 3>Really do well?

255
00:15:35.639 --> 00:15:38.200
<v Speaker 2>Do you think you think that he would he would

256
00:15:38.320 --> 00:15:42.120
<v Speaker 2>challenge Sonunu if Snunu decided he wanted the first.

257
00:15:41.919 --> 00:15:47.320
<v Speaker 6>Shot at Yeah, definitely. I think Scott Brown's on the

258
00:15:47.399 --> 00:15:51.120
<v Speaker 6>wall to be to run the president too, I really do.

259
00:15:52.399 --> 00:15:54.200
<v Speaker 2>He's got a few guys between them, one guy in

260
00:15:54.279 --> 00:15:58.279
<v Speaker 2>his name, assuming that Donald Trump gets uh, has a

261
00:15:58.360 --> 00:16:02.159
<v Speaker 2>good four years uh. I think J. D. Vance Was

262
00:16:02.399 --> 00:16:06.360
<v Speaker 2>would probably have some thoughts about that. Christine, I don't know, so,

263
00:16:09.039 --> 00:16:11.240
<v Speaker 2>so tell tell me what why do you think Scott

264
00:16:11.440 --> 00:16:15.159
<v Speaker 2>Brown should be the Republican nominee? If he you know,

265
00:16:15.480 --> 00:16:22.519
<v Speaker 2>obviously there are others I don't I like. I.

266
00:16:22.759 --> 00:16:24.600
<v Speaker 6>I just think he's trying to get himself in there

267
00:16:24.600 --> 00:16:26.600
<v Speaker 6>and then he's going to run the president. That's my

268
00:16:26.799 --> 00:16:29.919
<v Speaker 6>I think, And I don't know, well, I don't know.

269
00:16:31.919 --> 00:16:38.840
<v Speaker 2>Uh, let's see. Uh, it's I think it's a long

270
00:16:38.919 --> 00:16:44.720
<v Speaker 2>way to go for Scott Brown, having lost two Senate races,

271
00:16:44.919 --> 00:16:48.840
<v Speaker 2>one in Massachusetts and one in New Hampshire. But if

272
00:16:48.879 --> 00:16:55.480
<v Speaker 2>you were to if if Governor Sonunu, who I think

273
00:16:56.679 --> 00:17:05.000
<v Speaker 2>uh might be offered a fairly significant contract by any

274
00:17:05.079 --> 00:17:09.920
<v Speaker 2>of a number of the major television networks, he may

275
00:17:10.039 --> 00:17:11.920
<v Speaker 2>look at that and say, hey, that's a path.

276
00:17:12.279 --> 00:17:12.640
<v Speaker 3>He just.

277
00:17:14.359 --> 00:17:17.680
<v Speaker 2>Sununu just turned fifty in last November. He actually turned

278
00:17:17.720 --> 00:17:21.480
<v Speaker 2>fifty on election day, November fifth, ironically, remember talking to

279
00:17:21.559 --> 00:17:25.160
<v Speaker 2>him about that that night. Scott is a little older.

280
00:17:25.279 --> 00:17:32.720
<v Speaker 2>Scott is in his early sixties by a young guy. Nonetheless, Yeah,

281
00:17:32.720 --> 00:17:34.880
<v Speaker 2>so I don't know. You know, it will be It

282
00:17:34.920 --> 00:17:38.480
<v Speaker 2>will be interesting. I'll tell you this. It gives Republicans

283
00:17:38.519 --> 00:17:44.359
<v Speaker 2>in Massachusetts and Democrats in Massachusetts, you know, a real

284
00:17:44.599 --> 00:17:50.279
<v Speaker 2>race that may have national impact to go spend some

285
00:17:50.359 --> 00:17:52.599
<v Speaker 2>time in New Hampshire campaigning for whoever, for the D

286
00:17:52.759 --> 00:17:57.839
<v Speaker 2>O the R whoever they prefer. Think upon it? You know, yeah, exactly,

287
00:17:58.640 --> 00:18:02.000
<v Speaker 2>You never know, Steve, Thanks thanks for checking in. I

288
00:18:02.079 --> 00:18:04.279
<v Speaker 2>got you down as Scott Brown and you think he

289
00:18:04.400 --> 00:18:08.119
<v Speaker 2>might run for president? Hey, I didn't think Donald Trump

290
00:18:08.279 --> 00:18:10.160
<v Speaker 2>was gonna run, and then I didn't think he could win,

291
00:18:10.359 --> 00:18:16.279
<v Speaker 2>So I'm no expert. Thanks Christine. Thanks so yeah.

292
00:18:17.680 --> 00:18:22.359
<v Speaker 6>Next door to the restaurant, they have a like like

293
00:18:22.559 --> 00:18:25.759
<v Speaker 6>I'll take out two like shandwiches and wood to go

294
00:18:25.880 --> 00:18:27.680
<v Speaker 6>when they have a dollar Cassen.

295
00:18:29.119 --> 00:18:32.200
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I'm hearing great things. I'm hearing great things about

296
00:18:32.240 --> 00:18:36.920
<v Speaker 2>the restaurant, and we're looking looking forward to April twenty seventh.

297
00:18:37.039 --> 00:18:39.119
<v Speaker 2>I hope you're gonna be there, get a chance to

298
00:18:39.160 --> 00:18:41.240
<v Speaker 2>meet you and a whole bunch of other nightside listeners.

299
00:18:41.960 --> 00:18:44.000
<v Speaker 6>And the Muffin House is right next to her.

300
00:18:44.079 --> 00:18:44.359
<v Speaker 5>Also.

301
00:18:45.160 --> 00:18:47.960
<v Speaker 2>Oh man, now I'm gonna blow my diere totally in

302
00:18:48.039 --> 00:18:53.880
<v Speaker 2>that day. Thanks Christine. It sounds too tempting, right, Thanks

303
00:18:53.960 --> 00:18:56.799
<v Speaker 2>so much. Bye bye, talk to you soon. I'll see

304
00:18:56.839 --> 00:18:58.119
<v Speaker 2>you on the I hope to see you on the

305
00:18:58.200 --> 00:18:58.839
<v Speaker 2>twenty seventh.

306
00:19:00.000 --> 00:19:02.839
<v Speaker 6>Definitely, I'm going to try to go great.

307
00:19:03.000 --> 00:19:05.480
<v Speaker 2>Okay, make sure you get that reservation in though, because

308
00:19:06.240 --> 00:19:08.880
<v Speaker 2>and make sure that you're in our section. Okay. Thanks,

309
00:19:08.920 --> 00:19:09.599
<v Speaker 2>Thanks Christine.

310
00:19:09.599 --> 00:19:11.799
<v Speaker 6>Talk to you le okay, Hie, Ralph, thank you. Okay.

311
00:19:13.480 --> 00:19:15.319
<v Speaker 2>All right, So I'm looking for maybe a couple of

312
00:19:15.400 --> 00:19:17.640
<v Speaker 2>predictions here. From folks in New Hampshire. Brownie in New

313
00:19:17.680 --> 00:19:20.079
<v Speaker 2>Hampshire joins us on the other side. But who do

314
00:19:20.160 --> 00:19:23.400
<v Speaker 2>you like up there? Jean Jaheenes stepping away? She'll continue

315
00:19:23.519 --> 00:19:28.559
<v Speaker 2>as Senator for another twenty months or whatever is left

316
00:19:28.960 --> 00:19:31.559
<v Speaker 2>in her twenty two months, Yeah, because she would be

317
00:19:31.640 --> 00:19:35.880
<v Speaker 2>Senator until January of twenty seven, so she's got almost

318
00:19:35.920 --> 00:19:40.720
<v Speaker 2>two years left. Scott Brown Christinunu on the Republican side,

319
00:19:40.720 --> 00:19:42.839
<v Speaker 2>If there's another Republican let me know. I don't think

320
00:19:42.920 --> 00:19:46.480
<v Speaker 2>that Kelly Ayot, who was in the Senate and is

321
00:19:46.559 --> 00:19:50.160
<v Speaker 2>now the governor, just elected governor, would be interested in

322
00:19:50.240 --> 00:19:52.240
<v Speaker 2>going back to the Senate. I think there is always

323
00:19:52.279 --> 00:19:55.839
<v Speaker 2>that sort of been there, done that attitude, and she's

324
00:19:55.920 --> 00:19:58.599
<v Speaker 2>going to have to do a good job as governor,

325
00:19:58.720 --> 00:20:01.880
<v Speaker 2>and most govern want to stand for reelection. It's a

326
00:20:01.960 --> 00:20:05.319
<v Speaker 2>two year term up there, which makes it difficult because

327
00:20:05.319 --> 00:20:08.440
<v Speaker 2>they're always running for election or who On the Democratic side,

328
00:20:09.200 --> 00:20:14.200
<v Speaker 2>I'm not as familiar. I certainly know about Congressman PAPIs,

329
00:20:14.839 --> 00:20:17.799
<v Speaker 2>and I have heard about the other member of Congress

330
00:20:17.920 --> 00:20:20.680
<v Speaker 2>up there. For a long time there was some Democratic

331
00:20:20.839 --> 00:20:26.640
<v Speaker 2>members of Congress and they either were upset or or

332
00:20:27.200 --> 00:20:31.839
<v Speaker 2>resigned that so there's they're both teams, both the Republicans,

333
00:20:31.960 --> 00:20:35.880
<v Speaker 2>the r's and the d's actually have legitimate candidates up there,

334
00:20:35.920 --> 00:20:38.440
<v Speaker 2>which makes it so interesting. In a state that could

335
00:20:38.519 --> 00:20:41.160
<v Speaker 2>go either way, New Hampshi is considered a purple state,

336
00:20:41.279 --> 00:20:44.119
<v Speaker 2>neither red nor blue. Purple. You have the numbers, I

337
00:20:44.200 --> 00:20:46.079
<v Speaker 2>got some wide open lines here. Where are my political

338
00:20:46.160 --> 00:20:49.400
<v Speaker 2>analysts six one, seven, two, five, four, ten thirty six,

339
00:20:49.519 --> 00:20:52.440
<v Speaker 2>one seven, nine, three, one, ten thirty. I'd love to

340
00:20:52.480 --> 00:20:55.319
<v Speaker 2>talk about this until at least eleven o'clock. If you know,

341
00:20:55.519 --> 00:20:58.680
<v Speaker 2>we'll find something else. But this, to me is the

342
00:20:58.799 --> 00:21:01.359
<v Speaker 2>most exciting story that I know that w b Z

343
00:21:01.559 --> 00:21:04.440
<v Speaker 2>covered a lot. It was a lead story on at

344
00:21:04.519 --> 00:21:07.200
<v Speaker 2>least two of the news stations during the day, if

345
00:21:07.279 --> 00:21:11.119
<v Speaker 2>not at night. Join the conversation. Be right back on Nightside.

346
00:21:13.480 --> 00:21:18.640
<v Speaker 1>Night Side with Dan Ray. I'm WBZ Boston's News Radio.

347
00:21:20.160 --> 00:21:21.839
<v Speaker 2>All right, man, I'm telling you I want to hear

348
00:21:21.880 --> 00:21:26.200
<v Speaker 2>from some folks up in New Hampshire an open United

349
00:21:26.240 --> 00:21:31.519
<v Speaker 2>States Senate seat in twenty twenty six. I think it's

350
00:21:31.599 --> 00:21:34.799
<v Speaker 2>gonna be fun. Let me go to Bernie, who is

351
00:21:34.880 --> 00:21:37.119
<v Speaker 2>in New Hampshire. Bernie, how are you tonight?

352
00:21:38.200 --> 00:21:41.000
<v Speaker 3>I'm well you'reself, Dad, great.

353
00:21:40.839 --> 00:21:44.680
<v Speaker 2>Are you surprised that Senator shehen? Now again, she's getting

354
00:21:44.720 --> 00:21:48.000
<v Speaker 2>along in years a little bit, so she obviously has

355
00:21:48.039 --> 00:21:50.400
<v Speaker 2>some grandchildren she wants to pay attention to. But are

356
00:21:50.440 --> 00:21:53.480
<v Speaker 2>you surprised tough to give up a Senate seat, don't

357
00:21:53.480 --> 00:21:53.799
<v Speaker 2>you think?

358
00:21:55.039 --> 00:21:59.039
<v Speaker 3>Yeah? Absolutely, I was very surprised that she gave it up.

359
00:21:59.119 --> 00:22:02.000
<v Speaker 3>I mean, she did a job for a Democrat, and

360
00:22:02.720 --> 00:22:05.880
<v Speaker 3>you know what, she did the best she could. And

361
00:22:07.279 --> 00:22:09.920
<v Speaker 3>I just like, I agree with you one hundred percent.

362
00:22:10.000 --> 00:22:12.240
<v Speaker 3>I think it's going to be Chris Sun. I think

363
00:22:12.319 --> 00:22:15.720
<v Speaker 3>he understands national politics. He knows how to be a

364
00:22:15.839 --> 00:22:19.799
<v Speaker 3>national politician. He did a great job as governor. I mean,

365
00:22:20.319 --> 00:22:24.640
<v Speaker 3>he really grew to state and he understands them wants

366
00:22:24.680 --> 00:22:29.400
<v Speaker 3>and needs of the of his constituency. And I think

367
00:22:29.480 --> 00:22:32.799
<v Speaker 3>Kelly Aot's going to do a good job replacing him

368
00:22:32.799 --> 00:22:36.640
<v Speaker 3>in that part. But as far as senator being a senator,

369
00:22:37.000 --> 00:22:39.559
<v Speaker 3>he comes from a political family. I believe his father

370
00:22:39.799 --> 00:22:41.519
<v Speaker 3>was a chief of staff, wasn't he.

371
00:22:42.440 --> 00:22:46.200
<v Speaker 2>Oh? His dad former Governor Johnson, who was George Bush's

372
00:22:46.279 --> 00:22:49.680
<v Speaker 2>chief of staff at the White House, and then John

373
00:22:49.960 --> 00:22:53.559
<v Speaker 2>s New's son, John his namesake son was the United

374
00:22:53.599 --> 00:22:57.400
<v Speaker 2>States senator for I believe two terms up in New Hampshire.

375
00:22:58.359 --> 00:23:02.400
<v Speaker 2>I happened to have been with christ Sinunus Saturday night,

376
00:23:02.599 --> 00:23:06.319
<v Speaker 2>ironically at a dinner in Boston, and we talked quite

377
00:23:06.319 --> 00:23:09.079
<v Speaker 2>a bit, uh, And it's pretty clear to me that

378
00:23:09.920 --> 00:23:13.680
<v Speaker 2>he's got a lot of options. I think that he's

379
00:23:13.759 --> 00:23:19.640
<v Speaker 2>being pursued by some of the national media uh outfits.

380
00:23:19.839 --> 00:23:23.039
<v Speaker 2>They you know, he's he's he's a guy who's humorous,

381
00:23:23.079 --> 00:23:25.880
<v Speaker 2>he's funny. Listen to him give a tremendous speech on

382
00:23:26.000 --> 00:23:32.079
<v Speaker 2>Saturday night. He he's very quick, you know, he's he's sharp.

383
00:23:32.200 --> 00:23:35.559
<v Speaker 2>He's a sharp m I T graduate and and engineering.

384
00:23:35.720 --> 00:23:39.000
<v Speaker 2>I mean that's you know, he's he's he's a he's

385
00:23:39.079 --> 00:23:42.759
<v Speaker 2>a really smart guy. Did a good job as governor. Now,

386
00:23:42.839 --> 00:23:47.480
<v Speaker 2>he did say, uh that he really wasn't interested in

387
00:23:47.599 --> 00:23:50.759
<v Speaker 2>going to Washington when he was asked about a potential

388
00:23:50.880 --> 00:23:54.240
<v Speaker 2>run for senate, uh and be be a what he

389
00:23:54.359 --> 00:23:57.599
<v Speaker 2>called the backseater, meaning that he likes to be a leader.

390
00:23:57.839 --> 00:24:01.519
<v Speaker 2>But I think that again, if you know, he probably

391
00:24:01.559 --> 00:24:05.720
<v Speaker 2>would make much more money with a television contract than

392
00:24:05.759 --> 00:24:09.160
<v Speaker 2>he would as a United States senator. But he's still young.

393
00:24:09.279 --> 00:24:12.799
<v Speaker 2>He's fifty years of age he could be elected if

394
00:24:12.839 --> 00:24:15.119
<v Speaker 2>he were to choose to run, he could be elected

395
00:24:15.599 --> 00:24:19.160
<v Speaker 2>three times to the Senate. He could serve eighteen years

396
00:24:19.240 --> 00:24:22.200
<v Speaker 2>in the Senate and be merely seventy years of age,

397
00:24:22.599 --> 00:24:28.000
<v Speaker 2>which by most Senate US Senate standards is young when

398
00:24:28.039 --> 00:24:31.960
<v Speaker 2>you look at the Mitch McConnell's and the Ed Markey's

399
00:24:32.039 --> 00:24:35.920
<v Speaker 2>and the Elizabeth Warrens of the world. I mean, he'd

400
00:24:35.960 --> 00:24:40.119
<v Speaker 2>be like a kid. But again, I think it's going

401
00:24:40.200 --> 00:24:42.400
<v Speaker 2>to be up to the voters in New Hampshire. You

402
00:24:42.519 --> 00:24:47.680
<v Speaker 2>got four federal you know, you have two members of

403
00:24:47.799 --> 00:24:52.920
<v Speaker 2>Congress right now who are Democrats, and you have two

404
00:24:53.039 --> 00:24:58.920
<v Speaker 2>US Senators, Shaheen and Hassen, both former governors. I think

405
00:24:58.960 --> 00:25:00.599
<v Speaker 2>it's going to be a battle, and I think it's

406
00:25:00.640 --> 00:25:03.960
<v Speaker 2>gonna make New Hampshire. Normally New Hampshire is the focus

407
00:25:04.079 --> 00:25:07.920
<v Speaker 2>of a presidential primary in the in the months of

408
00:25:08.119 --> 00:25:11.519
<v Speaker 2>January and February, New Hampshire is gonna be in the

409
00:25:11.559 --> 00:25:17.359
<v Speaker 2>middle of a spotlight and as a battleground state to

410
00:25:17.480 --> 00:25:19.960
<v Speaker 2>control the US Senate. How exciting is that. I think

411
00:25:19.960 --> 00:25:20.680
<v Speaker 2>it's pretty cool.

412
00:25:21.839 --> 00:25:24.799
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I agree with you one hundred percent. And the

413
00:25:24.920 --> 00:25:29.839
<v Speaker 3>thing is he's he's gonna represent New Hampshire, which is

414
00:25:30.000 --> 00:25:32.519
<v Speaker 3>like it's a great state, as you said, it's it's

415
00:25:32.559 --> 00:25:35.559
<v Speaker 3>a really good state. And a lot of a lot

416
00:25:35.640 --> 00:25:38.160
<v Speaker 3>of the voters in New Hampshire, as you said, I'm

417
00:25:38.200 --> 00:25:40.319
<v Speaker 3>in the southern part of the state because of the

418
00:25:40.480 --> 00:25:43.160
<v Speaker 3>most populous cities that a lot of them are transplanted

419
00:25:43.279 --> 00:25:46.279
<v Speaker 3>for mass And the say in this yere was, don't

420
00:25:46.359 --> 00:25:50.079
<v Speaker 3>masch up in New Hampshire. But I believe Sanunu can

421
00:25:50.160 --> 00:25:52.880
<v Speaker 3>play the game and not the game. But he knows

422
00:25:53.039 --> 00:25:56.720
<v Speaker 3>politics and and you know what, I'm a Trump supporter,

423
00:25:56.880 --> 00:26:00.440
<v Speaker 3>as you well know, and I believe Chrisnunu understands like

424
00:26:00.720 --> 00:26:05.519
<v Speaker 3>military in all the issues, the worldwide issues, and I think,

425
00:26:05.759 --> 00:26:08.039
<v Speaker 3>you know, he may be the guy that stands up

426
00:26:08.079 --> 00:26:11.519
<v Speaker 3>to Trump on some of these things where Trump goes overboard.

427
00:26:11.759 --> 00:26:14.400
<v Speaker 3>Although it's hard to stand up to Trump. I understand that,

428
00:26:14.960 --> 00:26:17.519
<v Speaker 3>and I agree with a lot of stuff Trump's storm,

429
00:26:17.599 --> 00:26:19.920
<v Speaker 3>But right now I don't see the whole big picture

430
00:26:20.000 --> 00:26:22.960
<v Speaker 3>with him. But I think Snunu could be a voice

431
00:26:23.039 --> 00:26:24.960
<v Speaker 3>of reason in that whole thing. Well.

432
00:26:25.039 --> 00:26:28.680
<v Speaker 2>The thing that makes Sonnu particularly attractive, and it also

433
00:26:28.759 --> 00:26:32.160
<v Speaker 2>makes Scott Brown attractive, and that they are Republicans but

434
00:26:32.279 --> 00:26:37.160
<v Speaker 2>they're not doctrinaire Republicans, and I think that, you know,

435
00:26:37.319 --> 00:26:41.039
<v Speaker 2>Governor Sanunu or Scott Brown would represent the interest of

436
00:26:41.119 --> 00:26:44.400
<v Speaker 2>New Hampshire and if they had to disagree with the President.

437
00:26:44.599 --> 00:26:49.920
<v Speaker 2>I was surprised that I believe that President Trump still

438
00:26:49.960 --> 00:26:52.440
<v Speaker 2>has a line of communication open to Chris Snunu. They

439
00:26:52.640 --> 00:26:58.119
<v Speaker 2>they they talk periodically and even if you disagree, if

440
00:26:58.119 --> 00:27:00.519
<v Speaker 2>you're Donald Trump, you have to and you talk to

441
00:27:00.640 --> 00:27:03.160
<v Speaker 2>Christan Una, realize you're talking to a pretty smart guy.

442
00:27:03.799 --> 00:27:07.480
<v Speaker 2>He may disagree with President Trump on some things, but

443
00:27:08.119 --> 00:27:12.559
<v Speaker 2>he's a smart guy. And any political party in America

444
00:27:12.720 --> 00:27:15.640
<v Speaker 2>this day needs smart people, and both Scott Brown and

445
00:27:15.799 --> 00:27:19.960
<v Speaker 2>Kristan Unu are smart people and that could be very

446
00:27:20.039 --> 00:27:23.160
<v Speaker 2>advantageous and neither one of them, you know, the Republicans

447
00:27:23.200 --> 00:27:27.640
<v Speaker 2>in New Hampshire sometimes end up picking someone who's a

448
00:27:27.680 --> 00:27:30.160
<v Speaker 2>little further to the right of where New Hampshire is.

449
00:27:30.240 --> 00:27:32.440
<v Speaker 2>New Hampshire's a purple state. It's not a rock rib

450
00:27:32.519 --> 00:27:35.319
<v Speaker 2>Republican state like it used to be. But it just

451
00:27:35.440 --> 00:27:39.920
<v Speaker 2>elected a Republican governor, re elected, re elected a woman

452
00:27:39.920 --> 00:27:43.039
<v Speaker 2>who had been a senator. Now she's a governor. Christan

453
00:27:43.119 --> 00:27:45.920
<v Speaker 2>Unho was the governor. Maybe he's going to go back

454
00:27:45.960 --> 00:27:48.200
<v Speaker 2>to the Senate. We're going to see, that's for sure. Bernie,

455
00:27:48.200 --> 00:27:51.319
<v Speaker 2>appreciate you call, as we always real quick.

456
00:27:51.480 --> 00:27:54.480
<v Speaker 3>Then thanks for let me speak. My wife and my

457
00:27:55.680 --> 00:27:58.359
<v Speaker 3>son's twin sister and I were going down atap my

458
00:27:58.440 --> 00:28:01.599
<v Speaker 3>son out. He's going to be a US soldier next week.

459
00:28:02.119 --> 00:28:04.720
<v Speaker 3>We're very powder of him. And if anyone's pout of

460
00:28:04.839 --> 00:28:07.240
<v Speaker 3>whether your son's a lawyer or a doctor, or a

461
00:28:07.359 --> 00:28:10.680
<v Speaker 3>factory worker or an engineer, nobody's ever better as pout

462
00:28:10.720 --> 00:28:13.599
<v Speaker 3>as I have of my son becoming a US soldier.

463
00:28:14.039 --> 00:28:14.279
<v Speaker 3>Thank you.

464
00:28:14.319 --> 00:28:16.839
<v Speaker 2>Well, I'll tell you this. That's something you have in

465
00:28:16.920 --> 00:28:19.559
<v Speaker 2>common with Kristinnu. He has a twenty year old son

466
00:28:20.680 --> 00:28:26.200
<v Speaker 2>who is now a US Marine. You know a lot

467
00:28:26.240 --> 00:28:30.680
<v Speaker 2>of times you think about, you know, the children of politicians.

468
00:28:31.720 --> 00:28:34.920
<v Speaker 2>Apparently his son said, hey, dad, you know I'd rather

469
00:28:35.480 --> 00:28:38.319
<v Speaker 2>go and uh and give back to the country and

470
00:28:38.680 --> 00:28:41.839
<v Speaker 2>spend some time as a US Marine as a helicopter pilot.

471
00:28:41.960 --> 00:28:44.599
<v Speaker 2>So he's he's a pretty bright kid. I'm sure there

472
00:28:44.680 --> 00:28:46.880
<v Speaker 2>was he could have gone just about an ecology he wanted.

473
00:28:47.000 --> 00:28:49.680
<v Speaker 2>So gives you a little insight into the Sonunu family,

474
00:28:49.759 --> 00:28:53.000
<v Speaker 2>which I think people need to understand. And your son

475
00:28:53.119 --> 00:28:55.839
<v Speaker 2>is right in the same category as Christ's son here.

476
00:28:56.640 --> 00:28:58.920
<v Speaker 2>You know, I'm sure your son had plenty of options

477
00:28:58.960 --> 00:29:01.240
<v Speaker 2>in front of him. He owes the military. What's he

478
00:29:01.400 --> 00:29:04.759
<v Speaker 2>what's the boot camp? Is you go down to boot camp? Graduation?

479
00:29:04.920 --> 00:29:05.599
<v Speaker 2>Is that what's going on?

480
00:29:06.079 --> 00:29:08.880
<v Speaker 3>Yeah? We'll go to Fort Jackson, then he goes to

481
00:29:09.599 --> 00:29:11.839
<v Speaker 3>ai T, then he goes to Fort Benning.

482
00:29:12.640 --> 00:29:15.799
<v Speaker 2>Okay, so he's he's the US Army. Is he looking

483
00:29:15.839 --> 00:29:17.640
<v Speaker 2>to become a US Army ranger by any chance?

484
00:29:17.680 --> 00:29:20.079
<v Speaker 3>If he's a ranger? Yeah, we talked about this the

485
00:29:20.160 --> 00:29:22.079
<v Speaker 3>first week when he went to boot camp with my

486
00:29:22.200 --> 00:29:25.079
<v Speaker 3>wife was all the story. Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's he

487
00:29:25.599 --> 00:29:28.000
<v Speaker 3>was the un h and he chose to be an

488
00:29:28.079 --> 00:29:30.920
<v Speaker 3>Army ranger, he said. And what he told my wife's

489
00:29:30.920 --> 00:29:34.960
<v Speaker 3>surday was he says, mom, there's two models the rangers.

490
00:29:35.240 --> 00:29:37.799
<v Speaker 3>One the women is lead the rangers, lead the way,

491
00:29:38.480 --> 00:29:41.119
<v Speaker 3>and the other one is sore spante. And that's why

492
00:29:41.160 --> 00:29:44.000
<v Speaker 3>I want to be a ranger. All right, all right,

493
00:29:45.240 --> 00:29:45.839
<v Speaker 3>thank you, Den.

494
00:29:46.240 --> 00:29:48.000
<v Speaker 2>You should be very proud of your son. Please say

495
00:29:48.039 --> 00:29:50.240
<v Speaker 2>HI to him for all of us. Okay, congratulated for

496
00:29:50.319 --> 00:29:50.720
<v Speaker 2>all of us.

497
00:29:51.119 --> 00:29:51.440
<v Speaker 3>Thank you.

498
00:29:51.519 --> 00:29:54.039
<v Speaker 2>Thanks Bernie talk to you. We'll take quick break, a

499
00:29:54.119 --> 00:29:56.279
<v Speaker 2>couple of calls on the other other side. I'd like

500
00:29:56.440 --> 00:29:59.960
<v Speaker 2>more calls six one seven, two thirty one line there,

501
00:30:00.119 --> 00:30:04.440
<v Speaker 2>six one seven. I get excited about what I think

502
00:30:04.519 --> 00:30:09.480
<v Speaker 2>will be a really good US Senate race in our backyard.

503
00:30:09.960 --> 00:30:13.079
<v Speaker 2>That's what excites me about it. Uh. And I think

504
00:30:13.119 --> 00:30:15.559
<v Speaker 2>the Democrats will put someone up. They got a couple

505
00:30:15.640 --> 00:30:19.240
<v Speaker 2>of congress people up there who could easily stand for

506
00:30:20.240 --> 00:30:22.799
<v Speaker 2>move moving up if you will. You know, COEQ will

507
00:30:24.000 --> 00:30:26.359
<v Speaker 2>just something of the House of the House and Senate.

508
00:30:26.440 --> 00:30:29.920
<v Speaker 2>But look, most House members always also aspired being in

509
00:30:29.960 --> 00:30:33.640
<v Speaker 2>the Senate. We'll see what happens. I'm here for the

510
00:30:33.799 --> 00:30:38.240
<v Speaker 2>next hour fifteen minutes, and if you're not interested in

511
00:30:38.319 --> 00:30:40.519
<v Speaker 2>talking about that, we can move on. But I love

512
00:30:40.640 --> 00:30:43.519
<v Speaker 2>this topic. I'm a political guy. I think most of

513
00:30:43.640 --> 00:30:45.920
<v Speaker 2>you are as well, and this is a race that

514
00:30:46.119 --> 00:30:48.839
<v Speaker 2>is just beginning to form. Love to get your impression.

515
00:30:48.880 --> 00:30:49.839
<v Speaker 2>Coming back on Nightside.

516
00:30:50.400 --> 00:30:53.559
<v Speaker 1>Now back to Dan Ray live from the Window World

517
00:30:53.680 --> 00:30:56.799
<v Speaker 1>night Side Studios. I'm WBZ News Radio.

518
00:30:58.519 --> 00:31:00.599
<v Speaker 2>I've got to get all my clocks in order. Here.

519
00:31:00.759 --> 00:31:03.680
<v Speaker 2>Rob has the big clock in the studio. Let's go

520
00:31:03.880 --> 00:31:07.559
<v Speaker 2>next to one of my favorite call is Laurie from Idaho.

521
00:31:07.640 --> 00:31:09.119
<v Speaker 2>Lauria A. Youre going to come back here and join

522
00:31:09.240 --> 00:31:11.279
<v Speaker 2>us for the big brunch on April twenty seventh. How

523
00:31:11.359 --> 00:31:11.920
<v Speaker 2>are you tonight?

524
00:31:13.039 --> 00:31:15.759
<v Speaker 5>I'm gonna try. I'm doing well, except that that green

525
00:31:15.839 --> 00:31:18.720
<v Speaker 5>glog commercial just as that made me hurt. That's so disgusting.

526
00:31:19.200 --> 00:31:23.440
<v Speaker 2>But the green block I missed it. I sometimes believe.

527
00:31:23.240 --> 00:31:26.200
<v Speaker 5>You're talking about a fog drain and he's talking about it.

528
00:31:26.279 --> 00:31:31.559
<v Speaker 2>Oh yeah, yeah. Anyway, moving on, they try to catch

529
00:31:31.599 --> 00:31:34.440
<v Speaker 2>your attention, and obviously they succeeded with you. Not maybe

530
00:31:34.480 --> 00:31:38.200
<v Speaker 2>for the right reason, but no twentyth thing. I know

531
00:31:38.359 --> 00:31:41.440
<v Speaker 2>that you were originally from New Hampshire, right, so you

532
00:31:41.559 --> 00:31:44.880
<v Speaker 2>got some of some hometown on the line.

533
00:31:44.960 --> 00:31:47.440
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, oh yeah, what do you say? This is so exciting? Yeah,

534
00:31:47.559 --> 00:31:50.160
<v Speaker 5>I'm very excited, you know, And I love Kristin and

535
00:31:50.200 --> 00:31:52.759
<v Speaker 5>who and I don't. I would be very very surprised

536
00:31:52.799 --> 00:31:54.960
<v Speaker 5>if he did this. I mean, he's he's said all

537
00:31:55.000 --> 00:31:56.559
<v Speaker 5>along he wants to, you know, back in the family

538
00:31:56.640 --> 00:31:59.200
<v Speaker 5>life and give us this other stuff, and he doesn't.

539
00:31:59.559 --> 00:32:00.400
<v Speaker 3>I mean, can you.

540
00:32:00.400 --> 00:32:02.720
<v Speaker 5>Imagine who's sitting in senate meeting. He's going to be

541
00:32:02.759 --> 00:32:04.359
<v Speaker 5>like that kid in fourth grade that's got ants in

542
00:32:04.400 --> 00:32:07.119
<v Speaker 5>his pants, So I think he's he's not he's not

543
00:32:07.240 --> 00:32:10.319
<v Speaker 5>cut out for Washington just yet until he runs for president.

544
00:32:10.680 --> 00:32:14.920
<v Speaker 5>But I do like Scott Brown, so that might be interesting.

545
00:32:15.440 --> 00:32:19.079
<v Speaker 2>Well. I think that they are both would be formidable candidates.

546
00:32:21.240 --> 00:32:27.799
<v Speaker 2>I can tell you that I was at a dinner

547
00:32:27.839 --> 00:32:34.240
<v Speaker 2>with full M Governor Snunu and I have I have

548
00:32:34.519 --> 00:32:37.720
<v Speaker 2>an email here from I'm not going to identify who

549
00:32:37.799 --> 00:32:40.880
<v Speaker 2>it is, but a good friend of mine, Chrisnu should

550
00:32:40.880 --> 00:32:43.680
<v Speaker 2>seriously consider running for Shaheen's seat because he would win.

551
00:32:44.119 --> 00:32:46.279
<v Speaker 2>How far he goes after he wins, after he wins,

552
00:32:46.400 --> 00:32:49.240
<v Speaker 2>is anybody's guests. That's a friend of mine who thinks

553
00:32:49.240 --> 00:32:55.880
<v Speaker 2>that he's a presidential timber uh, I absolutely, well, Again,

554
00:32:56.000 --> 00:32:59.960
<v Speaker 2>he has the disadvantage of coming out of a small state. Bye.

555
00:33:00.839 --> 00:33:04.960
<v Speaker 2>He is very smart. He's young. He's only fifty. Turned

556
00:33:05.039 --> 00:33:09.519
<v Speaker 2>fifty on election day, ironically, November this past November fifth.

557
00:33:09.720 --> 00:33:11.759
<v Speaker 2>I interviewed him that night and we talked about he

558
00:33:11.839 --> 00:33:16.359
<v Speaker 2>had turned fifty. It was like wow, but he that

559
00:33:17.599 --> 00:33:20.640
<v Speaker 2>I watched. I watched him give a speech in Boston

560
00:33:20.880 --> 00:33:24.759
<v Speaker 2>on Saturday night. He was incredible. It was it was

561
00:33:24.880 --> 00:33:27.000
<v Speaker 2>off his top of his head. He was funny, he

562
00:33:27.160 --> 00:33:30.079
<v Speaker 2>was engaging, he was entertaining. He had the audience on

563
00:33:30.160 --> 00:33:33.400
<v Speaker 2>the palm of his hand, and he didn't he didn't

564
00:33:33.440 --> 00:33:36.480
<v Speaker 2>go really hardcore political on it. I mean, it wasn't

565
00:33:36.519 --> 00:33:38.680
<v Speaker 2>like he was up there trying to, you know, preach

566
00:33:39.160 --> 00:33:43.680
<v Speaker 2>New Hampshire over Massachusetts, or he's he went to school

567
00:33:43.720 --> 00:33:48.000
<v Speaker 2>in Massachusetts. What was he talking about your Republicans over Democrats.

568
00:33:48.279 --> 00:33:51.480
<v Speaker 2>It was it was humorous, it was funny, it was entertaining.

569
00:33:51.519 --> 00:33:53.839
<v Speaker 2>It was exactly what it should be. And I think

570
00:33:53.880 --> 00:33:56.079
<v Speaker 2>we need more of that in politics, as opposed to

571
00:33:56.599 --> 00:34:01.000
<v Speaker 2>people like Chuck Schumer or Mitch McConnell, who, yeah, they

572
00:34:01.160 --> 00:34:04.279
<v Speaker 2>just drone on and on. You know, if it's if

573
00:34:04.319 --> 00:34:06.799
<v Speaker 2>it's McConnell, you don't know when he's gonna stop speaking

574
00:34:06.920 --> 00:34:09.320
<v Speaker 2>or when he's gonna start speaking. And if it's Schumer,

575
00:34:09.760 --> 00:34:14.360
<v Speaker 2>you know, it's like, we will win, we will win.

576
00:34:14.960 --> 00:34:20.880
<v Speaker 2>I mean, you know those guys well, and they're not

577
00:34:21.000 --> 00:34:22.840
<v Speaker 2>the only ones in the in the U S. And

578
00:34:22.920 --> 00:34:25.199
<v Speaker 2>and get them some B twelve shots or something. I

579
00:34:25.280 --> 00:34:32.360
<v Speaker 2>don't know. They just well, term limits would be wonderful.

580
00:34:32.519 --> 00:34:38.559
<v Speaker 2>I agree with that, but no, it's it's none of

581
00:34:38.599 --> 00:34:40.960
<v Speaker 2>them are going to vote in favor of something that's

582
00:34:41.000 --> 00:34:44.000
<v Speaker 2>going to end their ability to to stay at the

583
00:34:44.320 --> 00:34:47.559
<v Speaker 2>at the troth. Now, Christinn, who is the type of

584
00:34:47.599 --> 00:34:51.000
<v Speaker 2>guy who would I think again, he's shown he could

585
00:34:51.000 --> 00:34:54.440
<v Speaker 2>win in New Hampshire. Uh, you know, Scott Brown has

586
00:34:54.519 --> 00:34:56.559
<v Speaker 2>yet to shown he shown he could win. He ran

587
00:34:56.679 --> 00:34:59.239
<v Speaker 2>one race in Austin. You know, they labeled him a

588
00:34:59.320 --> 00:35:02.320
<v Speaker 2>carpetbag her and all of that, you know, garbage job.

589
00:35:04.079 --> 00:35:07.079
<v Speaker 5>But I fo Christian who would win?

590
00:35:07.320 --> 00:35:09.400
<v Speaker 2>But that's right, No one's going to label christ and

591
00:35:09.400 --> 00:35:10.920
<v Speaker 2>who do that? And I think he has an appeal

592
00:35:10.960 --> 00:35:14.559
<v Speaker 2>to moderates. And I'll tell you the Republicans need to

593
00:35:14.760 --> 00:35:18.960
<v Speaker 2>need to get some representative representation either in the center

594
00:35:19.000 --> 00:35:22.719
<v Speaker 2>of Howison, New Hampshire. They're a purple state with the

595
00:35:22.960 --> 00:35:25.760
<v Speaker 2>entire their entire delegation. I mean, we could be if

596
00:35:25.800 --> 00:35:29.480
<v Speaker 2>Susan Collins loses next year and she's up for election,

597
00:35:29.840 --> 00:35:32.559
<v Speaker 2>she could be a Republican loss and that would be

598
00:35:32.639 --> 00:35:38.039
<v Speaker 2>the I think the last ouch. Yeah, well, the last

599
00:35:38.119 --> 00:35:42.480
<v Speaker 2>Republican senator. I think there's one congressman who's still a

600
00:35:42.559 --> 00:35:46.559
<v Speaker 2>Republican from northern Maine. But I mean, come on, do

601
00:35:46.639 --> 00:35:50.320
<v Speaker 2>we want to turn New England into Massachusetts a one

602
00:35:50.400 --> 00:35:53.880
<v Speaker 2>party revision. Ever, wonder I think that's a good idea.

603
00:35:54.039 --> 00:35:58.880
<v Speaker 5>You know, Well, so the election isn't until twenty six, right.

604
00:35:59.119 --> 00:36:01.519
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, oh, this plenty of time. But I would assume that.

605
00:36:02.280 --> 00:36:04.840
<v Speaker 5>Time to live his little fun life after his governorship

606
00:36:04.960 --> 00:36:07.079
<v Speaker 5>and go out and do and maybe he'll he'll read.

607
00:36:07.159 --> 00:36:09.320
<v Speaker 5>I mean, I think if he runs, he'll win. I

608
00:36:09.480 --> 00:36:11.519
<v Speaker 5>just don't know if his the way his life is,

609
00:36:11.599 --> 00:36:13.039
<v Speaker 5>you know, if he wants a little more freedom for

610
00:36:13.119 --> 00:36:13.440
<v Speaker 5>a while.

611
00:36:14.119 --> 00:36:16.159
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. Well, if I was Kristan Unhu, and I'm not,

612
00:36:17.159 --> 00:36:19.159
<v Speaker 2>but if I were Christiana, I'd love to be fifty

613
00:36:19.239 --> 00:36:21.960
<v Speaker 2>years of agent Kristan Unhu. He should have spent today

614
00:36:22.119 --> 00:36:25.679
<v Speaker 2>calling the hundred most influential Republicans in New Hampshire and saying, look,

615
00:36:25.760 --> 00:36:27.719
<v Speaker 2>I don't know what I'm going to do, but i'd

616
00:36:27.760 --> 00:36:30.800
<v Speaker 2>ask you to stand down until I make my decision.

617
00:36:31.679 --> 00:36:34.199
<v Speaker 2>And I think you have that conversation with one hundred

618
00:36:34.280 --> 00:36:36.440
<v Speaker 2>influential people in your party, and all of them, I

619
00:36:36.519 --> 00:36:39.960
<v Speaker 2>suspect are going to say, you know, look fine with me,

620
00:36:40.320 --> 00:36:43.800
<v Speaker 2>no need to make a decision now. And if I

621
00:36:44.039 --> 00:36:48.360
<v Speaker 2>decide to go off and become a network commentator, he's

622
00:36:48.400 --> 00:36:51.760
<v Speaker 2>done a lot on CNN, as you know that's a possibility,

623
00:36:52.360 --> 00:36:54.960
<v Speaker 2>or I've decided then I'm going to make a run

624
00:36:55.039 --> 00:36:58.800
<v Speaker 2>for this. I mean, he's in the person.

625
00:36:58.840 --> 00:37:00.920
<v Speaker 5>He's also so brighton so is he that that that

626
00:37:01.119 --> 00:37:03.480
<v Speaker 5>commentary thing might get a little old for him after

627
00:37:03.519 --> 00:37:05.039
<v Speaker 5>a while and he might want to do something else.

628
00:37:06.199 --> 00:37:08.400
<v Speaker 2>Well, there would be when you talk about travel, this

629
00:37:08.559 --> 00:37:10.719
<v Speaker 2>is much travel involved in that. Because I got to

630
00:37:10.760 --> 00:37:14.159
<v Speaker 2>tell you, Yeah, the networks, you know CNN and I

631
00:37:14.199 --> 00:37:16.800
<v Speaker 2>don't think Fox would. Fox doesn't need them. They have

632
00:37:16.960 --> 00:37:20.719
<v Speaker 2>all the Republicans they need. Uh, CNN needs them. I

633
00:37:20.840 --> 00:37:23.480
<v Speaker 2>don't know that he would go to MSNBC. He might

634
00:37:23.559 --> 00:37:27.079
<v Speaker 2>go to a NBC, ABC, U CBS. They have Sunday

635
00:37:27.159 --> 00:37:32.840
<v Speaker 2>morning shows. He has plenty of options, including running for

636
00:37:32.920 --> 00:37:35.000
<v Speaker 2>the US Senate. Not bad when you're fifty years of

637
00:37:35.039 --> 00:37:37.880
<v Speaker 2>age to have those options. Most of us at the

638
00:37:37.920 --> 00:37:39.960
<v Speaker 2>age of fifty saying how much do I have to?

639
00:37:40.679 --> 00:37:43.719
<v Speaker 2>When can I take Social Security? That's not the furthest

640
00:37:43.760 --> 00:37:48.239
<v Speaker 2>thing from his mind, that's for sure. How's the weather

641
00:37:48.360 --> 00:37:48.760
<v Speaker 2>out there?

642
00:37:48.800 --> 00:37:50.599
<v Speaker 3>In exciting?

643
00:37:51.360 --> 00:37:54.559
<v Speaker 2>Would you get today? We're going to get over the weekend,

649
00:38:09.159 --> 00:38:12.239
<v Speaker 5>with no accumulation in three days. And Jim bersons in

650
00:38:12.280 --> 00:38:14.519
<v Speaker 5>the forties and the forties and the forties, it's very.

651
00:38:14.559 --> 00:38:16.800
<v Speaker 2>Well, here's the deal. Here, here's the deal. We're supposed

652
00:38:16.800 --> 00:38:18.599
<v Speaker 2>to get rain. All the weather fore casters that I

661
00:38:37.519 --> 00:38:39.440
<v Speaker 2>Good night. Okay, here's what we're going to do. I

662
00:38:39.480 --> 00:38:43.079
<v Speaker 2>could see that there wasn't much interest in that race,

663
00:38:43.280 --> 00:38:47.159
<v Speaker 2>even though I loved it, and I want to thank Christine,

664
00:38:47.239 --> 00:38:50.559
<v Speaker 2>Bernie and Laurie who took the time to call. I

665
00:38:50.760 --> 00:38:54.280
<v Speaker 2>love talking politics, and I love talking politics where there's

666
00:38:54.280 --> 00:38:57.039
<v Speaker 2>a number of options. This is not like you know,

667
00:38:58.119 --> 00:39:01.000
<v Speaker 2>I hate Donald Trump or I hate the Democrats. This

668
00:39:01.159 --> 00:39:05.320
<v Speaker 2>is like we're talking options, and so we will leave

669
00:39:05.440 --> 00:39:09.360
<v Speaker 2>that subject, okay. But what I will do is I

670
00:39:09.400 --> 00:39:11.360

673
00:39:16.079 --> 00:39:18.239
<v Speaker 2>to open lines. I don't know. I will remind you

694
00:40:28.960 --> 00:40:31.199
<v Speaker 7>out of breath. It got to the point where I

695
00:40:31.320 --> 00:40:32.760
<v Speaker 7>decided it was time to pick up the phone and

696
00:40:32.800 --> 00:40:36.440
<v Speaker 7>call Awaken What eighty. The combination of the diet and

<v Speaker 9>Good evening, I'm Dan Watkins. Here's what's happening. The chances

723
00:41:59.760 --> 00:42:01.880
<v Speaker 9>of a government shut down at the end of the

724
00:42:01.920 --> 00:42:04.639
<v Speaker 9>week are ramping up now that the Democrats and the

725
00:42:04.719 --> 00:42:07.880
<v Speaker 9>Senate have come out against the House passed measure that

726
00:42:08.000 --> 00:42:11.480
<v Speaker 9>would avoid one. ABC Stephen Portnoy with the latest.

<v Speaker 8>and don't have the votes on their own to push

729
00:42:16.920 --> 00:42:19.840

730
00:42:20.199 --> 00:42:22.840
<v Speaker 8>Chuck Schumer says the Senate should instead consider a clean

731
00:42:22.960 --> 00:42:25.880
<v Speaker 8>one month extension of government funding through April eleventh.

732
00:42:26.039 --> 00:42:27.320
<v Speaker 2>We should vote on that.

733
00:42:27.719 --> 00:42:30.000
