Know Your Critics

This is in response to the attack on candidate for State Rep Emily Louise O’Neill by Bill Greiner of Bedford that recently appeared in the Bedford Bulletin. It pays to know what his agenda might be.

Emily, a New Hampshire native, lost the primary by only four votes. It is recommended that voters write in her name in lieu of voting for Terry Wolf. Wolf clearly did not abide by the Republican platform when she served on the Bedford school board. Wolf also told Republicans at a recent event that there were other parts of the platform with which she disagreed but would not say what exactly. O’Neill on the other hand, is a solid Republican with political experience, owns her own business dealing with same, and can be trusted to abide by the platform completely.

Greiner’s weak accusation against O’Neill is that she is somehow aligned with Aaron Day. This is of course a complete fabrication. We remember having to explain to O’Neill just who Mr. Day was, and why he was being used to attack her, the day before the primary.

Greiner, who is a relative newcomer to New Hampshire, has an over-ten year habit of this behavior, always with the same agenda. It appears that those who refuse to come under his control are smeared with some imaginary flaw or unfounded offense (there is nothing wrong with Day) along with being subjected to additional name calling in public. Others are then smeared by association.

Greiner’s complaint about Day is that he is “working to elect Democrats” (untrue). Greiner has even harassed Day’s mother on Twitter. [See graphic]

The real irony is that Mr. Greiner himself openly supports three Democrats (Shaheen, Pappas and trial lawyer Lee Nyquist) and had even served as Chairperson for Lee Nyquist in 2012. To that end, Greiner is the influence behind a similar attack on Senator Andy Sanborn as you may have seen from that silly card mailed from the Lee Nyquist campaign. The card made a specious and juvenile attempt to smear Andy by association with, you guessed it, Aaron Day.

Greiner’s modus operandi is the same and it’s consistently hypocritical. People are catching on.

Senator Sanborn has been a solid Republican and to his credit, is a person of character who cannot be controlled or bribed in any way. We imagine he refuses to be controlled by Mr. Greiner, and we’re very sure he isn’t controlled by Aaron Day as suggested by Greiner’s Nyquist card.

Please re-elect Andy Sanborn to the NH Senate and write in Emily Louise O’Neill for State Rep instead of Terry Wolf.

Oh and by the way, Terry Wolf is another of Greiner’s candidates. Like Greiner, she is not a NH native and barely campaigned. Wolf still refuses to tell us any more about her beliefs. She does not deserve to represent Republicans.
