His non-stop jackassery just flies under the radar.

Hassan will have a very difficult time against him. On the other hand they desperately do not want to lose the governorship, and Sununu is their only safe bet there, so it really depends on what they decide to do.

In 2002, Sununu-R defeated Shaheen-D by a 4.4 percent margin. The year GWB was highly popular due to 911. Republicans won every election in NH.
In 2008, Shaheen-D defeated Sununu-R by 6.3 percent margin. This was due to Obama-D coattails.
