U.S. Senator Jeanne Shaheen of New Hampshire made the announcement that she will not seek reelection for her senate seat, essentially turning NH into a battleground state for the Senate in 2026. Can the Republicans reclaim a seat in NH furthering their majority in the Senate or will the Democrats defend that seat? Who do you think will and should run for that seat in NH?

Speaker 1 (00:01):
It's night time with Dan Ray. I'm telling Easy Boston's radio.
Speaker 2 (00:08):
All right, welcome back everyone, and again I want to
give that number, that long COVID number, one more time.
Speaker 3 (00:15):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (00:16):
It doesn't hurt folks to give them a call and
see what services might be available or what you know,
what might help you, Uh six one seven five two
five three six six five one of the things. And
I'm gonna say this and not reference uh any criticism,
(00:36):
but sometimes when you get in a situation where you're
really debilitated by this horrible, horrible, but it's much better
to say, Okay, I've told my story, but I want
to listen because maybe, maybe, just maybe there's someone who
can provide some help. And Julie Sullivan is great, I think.
(01:02):
And she sent me more material today than anyone. She
pull pulled stuff together for me. She was a great guest. Uh,
answered the questions extraordinarily empathetic. If you've missed the program,
you may want to just go to Nightside and demand
tomorrow and listen to the nine o'clock hour. She's the
program manager. She's been there a long time at the
COVID Recovery Center in Brigham and Women's Hospital. The phone
(01:25):
number six one seven five two five three six six five.
Rob has written that number down. I had people yesterday
who called me looking for numbers. I had asked that
Rob write a number down. I'm sure he did, and
I've got to now get back tomorrow and answer emails
to people who you know I want to help. One
(01:46):
of the things I want to do in this program,
obviously is entertain and inform and all of that, and
have good conversations. But I also occasionally, or maybe even
a little more than occasionally, do something that might help.
We talked about mass energy bills. By the way, I
got on the phone this morning and I changed my
(02:07):
energy supplier. Easy, easy to do, and I went from
paying about twenty five cents a killowatt hour down to
about twelve and a half cents, basically cut it in half. Now,
that don't necessarily cut my bill in half, but it will.
It will save me some money. And I'm in a
(02:30):
nine month contract with a different company. The lowest rates
that I found were with a company called Constellation, And
I got to tell you, I'm not pushing for any
specific company, but do your research mass energy rates dot com.
Don't just sit there and pay those big bills. Do
(02:53):
what you can to and we talked about that last night.
You need to listen to the two hours last night
our night sat in Demand if you want. I'm not
going to replay the hours right now now. In terms
of an announcement, Rob, we should have had a drum
roll here or something, but I would like all of
the night side listeners, and even if you're not a
(03:14):
nightside listener, to know that every couple of years we
try to do something that gives night side listeners an opportunity.
I can meet some of you. Many of you have
come to know by name over the phone. But we
did a couple of trips to Polar Park to see
baseball games. But I thought this year we're going to
(03:38):
do something different. And here's what we're going to do
on Sunday. And you may want to make a note
of this, Okay, and Rob, you know as well as
I do, if you could note a couple of things
here in case people call in Sunday April twenty seven,
that's the Sunday after Easter, April twenty seventh, twenty twenty five,
(03:59):
We're going to have a night side brunch at eleven o'clock.
I'm going to run from about eleven to one. However,
however long you want to stay eleven to one thirty,
we will be entertained by the Winnaker b ind Bill
and Bo Winnaker. They have performed at this location for
about ten months and they tell me it is a
(04:21):
fabulous restaurant. It is called Neroli n E R O
l I. They have a brunch option. If you want
to go all in and have brunch with us, that's great.
They also have a separate breakfast menu and a lunch menu,
so if you just want to have something simple, something
simple pancakes, not going to break the bank. That no,
(04:41):
will the brunch break the bank, believe it or not.
I mean, this is really a great place. I've not
been there, but I trust Bill Winnaker implicitly. They also
have a lunch menu, so if you sell me said,
oh my noom time, eleven o'clock, eleven thirty, I want
a hamburger, they got they got that on the menu
as well. Here there's the number you need to call
(05:02):
to make reservations. Okay, and please don't make a reservation
unless you intend to come, because it's a big location.
But our area will be relatively small, and I'm gonna
it reminds you that when you make your reservation, tell
them you want to be sitting in my section, in
(05:24):
the Dan Ray section. Simple as that. That way we'll
get a chance to meet everybody, take some selfies, just
have some fun. The number to make the reservations add
at the restaurant are seven eight to one three, seven
five two, five nine four. I give that number again
in one more time here and a little bit later
on as well. Seven eight one three, seven five two
(05:45):
five nine four. This restaurant is on Route one A
in Westwood, two eighty two Washington Street. A lot of parking,
big parking lot behind the restaurant, free on street parking,
so easy to get to, easy to find. The reservations
need to be made as soon as possible if you
want to join us. Seven eight one three seven five
(06:07):
two five nine four. There's no price for the entertainment.
There's no cover charge. It's just we'll all have breakfast.
Maybe you'll have brunch and I'll have breakfast, and someone
else will has a couple of hamburgers. Whatever. Rob you
got that number. Seven eight one three, seven five two
five nine four The restaurant is Neuroli n E ro
(06:29):
o l I. It's an Italian restaurant, which of course
is tops in my books. Anyway, Sunday, April twenty seventh,
twenty and twenty five, a little over a month from now,
at eleven o'clock, looking forward to meeting as many people.
You don't have to be a nightside listener to come.
You can bring your friends, uh. And I believe that
our producer Lightning aka Marida will join us. I think
(06:51):
she will be there. I don't know if Rob is
going to venture down from north of Boston, but certainly
we'd love to have him come down as well, and
love to have as many of it there as possible.
The capacity is immense. I mean, we could have one
hundred people there easily, and by the way, we could
have a hundred people by within a week, and once
(07:11):
those reservations close off, that's it. They haven't limited us yet,
but I would. I made my reservations today, doctor Good, Seriously,
trust me, I did. All right, let's move on here
to the matters at hand. Big story out of New
Hampshire today. Now some of you might have missed it,
(07:36):
and if you did, of course, My job is to
make sure that you're up to date on what's going on.
The senior senator, I think she is the senior Senator
from New Hampshire. Former New Hampshire Governor Jean Shaheen announced
today that she will not seek re election. Now, what
makes that interesting, Well, what makes it interesting is New
(07:58):
Hampshire is so it's called the Purple State. It currently
is represented by two Democratic senators and two members of
the House Democrats, so all four members of the congressional
delegation are Democrats. Chris Pappus is a congressman in the south,
(08:20):
Maggie Goodlander is a congressman in sort of the district
is kind of cut down the middle, but there's really
kind of a southeast district in a northwest district in
New Hampshire. And the two senators out there, Maggie Hassen
and Jean Shaheen. Now, Sahen announced today that she has decided,
(08:42):
which she has every right to do. She's going to
serve out her term to twenty twenty six. But that
will be an open set. And let's listen to a
little bit of this. Rob Let's go first to twenty
three A.
Speaker 4 (08:54):
To my remarkable and dedicated staff, and to all those
who have partnered with us over the years.
Speaker 5 (09:00):
Thank you.
Speaker 4 (09:01):
Together we have made a difference. Above all, thanks to
my family who have always been by my side, to
my husband Billy, who's been there through good times and bad,
our daughters Stephanie, Stacy and Molly, our sons in law Craig,
Ryan and Hugh, and our seven wonderful grandchildren. They're the best.
Speaker 2 (09:26):
Okay, thanks very much. She talks about urgent challenges, but
she's not going to be there, and this is her
comment at twenty three, b Rob.
Speaker 4 (09:40):
There are urgent challenges ahead, both here at home and
around the world. And while I'm not seeking reelection, believe me,
I am not retiring. I am determined to work every
day over the next two years and beyond to continue
to try and make a difference for the people of
New hamp sure in this country. I hope you'll join
(10:02):
me in that effort.
Speaker 2 (10:06):
Shehen, of course the former governor of New Hampshire, as
was Maggie Hassen Kelly aot. The current governor used to
be a US Senator. So it's sort of a small
pool that New Hampshire residents seem to rely upon both
for their state leadership as governor and their congressional leadership
in the Senate and in the House. She of course
(10:29):
a well written statement. I don't think this comes as
a stunning surprise, but it does change the landscape in
New Hampshire. We're going to talk about that. This is
her The last bite I will play from Jean Shaheen tonight,
Senator Jean Shaheen at cut twenty three c rob.
Speaker 4 (10:48):
From the bottom of my heart, thank you New Hampshire.
Listening to your stories, being your champion, working with you
on the tough fights has been the honor of a lifetime,
and we'll keep at it.
Speaker 2 (11:07):
By the way, for those of you who are listening
and don't know New Hampshire, New Hampshire is a really
neat state. I mean it's a rural state in many respects.
It's got a big suburban tier in the southern part
of the state south of Manchester, and it has some
pretty big, good sized cities in terms of a state
(11:29):
the size of New Hampshire, Manchester and Portsmouth Salem conquered.
It is a winter wonderland. It is a well run state.
Democratic governors Republican governors have done a great job up
there over time, and they deserve a great replacement for
Jean Shaheen. And that's what we're going to talk about.
(11:52):
I want to hear from as many of you as possible,
because the US Senate right now is fifty three to
forty seven Republican, and that is a Senate that will
be in play in the twenty twenty sixth election. The
Republicans have an advantage obviously at this point they have
an advantage of six three, but fifty three forty seven.
(12:13):
There are already two other Democrats who have said they
are giving up their seats. This could be a year
for the Republicans, and of course it all depend in
large part upon how Donald Trump is doing. It could
be a year where the Republicans to open up their
lead and perhaps have the largest lead in the Senate
in many many years, again especially with three Democratic senators
(12:35):
now retiring, including Shahem or or conversely, it could go
the other way. I want to talk to you about
who you think should run up there on both sides,
Republican and Democrat. And also for those of you in
Massachusetts who pretty much realize that it doesn't make much
of an effort here in Massachusetts, the Democrats tend to win.
(12:56):
This is a play a way in which you could
have a tremendous impact, whether you're a Democrat or a Republican,
got in New Hampshire and campaign for whoever's running for
Senate up in New Hampshire. Let me tell you that
is a great opportunity. With that said, I'm going to
open up the phone line six one, seven, two, five,
(13:16):
four ten thirty six one seven, nine three one ten
thirty if you're from New Hampshire and you want to
flow a name, maybe a name that has been thought of,
maybe a name that hasn't been thought of. That's great.
On the Republican side, there are two major candidates who
could run. Former Governor Christan Unu I think would be
(13:37):
the odds on favorite if he were in He's been
elected four times up there as governor, his brother was
a US Senator from up there, from in New Hampshire,
and of course his dad before him had been the
governor of New Hampshire. And Christan Uno has just finished
eight years as governor and it did a great job
as governor. I think the best governor in the country
in my opinion. UH Scott, former Massachusetts senator is in
(14:03):
New Hampshire. Uh he has run once. Uh he in Massachusetts,
won a special election, then lost to Elizabeth Warren in
twenty twelve, and lost in New Hampshire when he took
on Maggie Hassen again. I think it would be Chris
Sunhu's race if he wants it, but there may be others,
(14:25):
so join the conversation. Six one, seven, two, five, four
to ten thirty six one seven, nine, three one ten thirty.
I get excited about this because what this means is
that New Hampshire, Little old New Hampshire maybe is no
longer a presidential battleground state, but it's maybe one of
zap ground zero for the twenty twenty six Senate races.
(14:47):
Every year, every two years, a third of the US
Senate turns over. We'll be back on nightside. Let's talk
some politics. Want to hear from you in New Hampshire
who you would like to see in the Senate to
represent your interest with coming back on nightside.
Speaker 1 (15:00):
Back to Dan ray Line from the Window World night
Side Studios on w b Z News Radio.
Speaker 2 (15:06):
All right, let's see what folks think about uh this race.
I mean this, this will be a very closely watched
national race in twenty twenty six. No presidential race in
twenty twenty six, but a watted stake. Christine is in Denham, Massachusetts. Christine,
what's your thoughts on what's going on up in New Hampshire?
(15:26):
And it's going to get interesting.
Speaker 6 (15:29):
It's going to get interesting. I think Scott Brown is
going to put his foot in the door off.
Speaker 3 (15:34):
Really do well?
Speaker 2 (15:35):
Do you think you think that he would he would
challenge Sonunu if Snunu decided he wanted the first.
Speaker 6 (15:41):
Shot at Yeah, definitely. I think Scott Brown's on the
wall to be to run the president too, I really do.
Speaker 2 (15:52):
He's got a few guys between them, one guy in
his name, assuming that Donald Trump gets uh, has a
good four years uh. I think J. D. Vance Was
would probably have some thoughts about that. Christine, I don't know, so,
so tell tell me what why do you think Scott
Brown should be the Republican nominee? If he you know,
(16:15):
obviously there are others I don't I like. I.
Speaker 6 (16:22):
I just think he's trying to get himself in there
and then he's going to run the president. That's my
I think, And I don't know, well, I don't know.
Speaker 2 (16:31):
Uh, let's see. Uh, it's I think it's a long
way to go for Scott Brown, having lost two Senate races,
one in Massachusetts and one in New Hampshire. But if
you were to if if Governor Sonunu, who I think
(16:56):
uh might be offered a fairly significant contract by any
of a number of the major television networks, he may
look at that and say, hey, that's a path.
Speaker 3 (17:12):
He just.
Speaker 2 (17:14):
Sununu just turned fifty in last November. He actually turned
fifty on election day, November fifth, ironically, remember talking to
him about that that night. Scott is a little older.
Scott is in his early sixties by a young guy. Nonetheless, Yeah,
so I don't know. You know, it will be It
(17:34):
will be interesting. I'll tell you this. It gives Republicans
in Massachusetts and Democrats in Massachusetts, you know, a real
race that may have national impact to go spend some
time in New Hampshire campaigning for whoever, for the D
O the R whoever they prefer. Think upon it? You know, yeah, exactly,
(17:58):
You never know, Steve, Thanks thanks for checking in. I
got you down as Scott Brown and you think he
might run for president? Hey, I didn't think Donald Trump
was gonna run, and then I didn't think he could win,
So I'm no expert. Thanks Christine. Thanks so yeah.
Speaker 6 (18:17):
Next door to the restaurant, they have a like like
I'll take out two like shandwiches and wood to go
when they have a dollar Cassen.
Speaker 2 (18:29):
Yeah, I'm hearing great things. I'm hearing great things about
the restaurant, and we're looking looking forward to April twenty seventh.
I hope you're gonna be there, get a chance to
meet you and a whole bunch of other nightside listeners.
Speaker 6 (18:41):
And the Muffin House is right next to her.
Speaker 5 (18:44):
Also.
Speaker 2 (18:45):
Oh man, now I'm gonna blow my diere totally in
that day. Thanks Christine. It sounds too tempting, right, Thanks
so much. Bye bye, talk to you soon. I'll see
you on the I hope to see you on the
twenty seventh.
Speaker 6 (19:00):
Definitely, I'm going to try to go great.
Speaker 2 (19:03):
Okay, make sure you get that reservation in though, because
and make sure that you're in our section. Okay. Thanks,
Thanks Christine.
Speaker 6 (19:09):
Talk to you le okay, Hie, Ralph, thank you. Okay.
Speaker 2 (19:13):
All right, So I'm looking for maybe a couple of
predictions here. From folks in New Hampshire. Brownie in New
Hampshire joins us on the other side. But who do
you like up there? Jean Jaheenes stepping away? She'll continue
as Senator for another twenty months or whatever is left
in her twenty two months, Yeah, because she would be
Senator until January of twenty seven, so she's got almost
(19:35):
two years left. Scott Brown Christinunu on the Republican side,
If there's another Republican let me know. I don't think
that Kelly Ayot, who was in the Senate and is
now the governor, just elected governor, would be interested in
going back to the Senate. I think there is always
that sort of been there, done that attitude, and she's
going to have to do a good job as governor,
(19:58):
and most govern want to stand for reelection. It's a
two year term up there, which makes it difficult because
they're always running for election or who On the Democratic side,
I'm not as familiar. I certainly know about Congressman PAPIs,
and I have heard about the other member of Congress
up there. For a long time there was some Democratic
(20:20):
members of Congress and they either were upset or or
resigned that so there's they're both teams, both the Republicans,
the r's and the d's actually have legitimate candidates up there,
which makes it so interesting. In a state that could
go either way, New Hampshi is considered a purple state,
(20:41):
neither red nor blue. Purple. You have the numbers, I
got some wide open lines here. Where are my political
analysts six one, seven, two, five, four, ten thirty six,
one seven, nine, three, one, ten thirty. I'd love to
talk about this until at least eleven o'clock. If you know,
we'll find something else. But this, to me is the
most exciting story that I know that w b Z
(21:01):
covered a lot. It was a lead story on at
least two of the news stations during the day, if
not at night. Join the conversation. Be right back on Nightside.
Speaker 1 (21:13):
Night Side with Dan Ray. I'm WBZ Boston's News Radio.
Speaker 2 (21:20):
All right, man, I'm telling you I want to hear
from some folks up in New Hampshire an open United
States Senate seat in twenty twenty six. I think it's
gonna be fun. Let me go to Bernie, who is
in New Hampshire. Bernie, how are you tonight?
Speaker 3 (21:38):
I'm well you'reself, Dad, great.
Speaker 2 (21:40):
Are you surprised that Senator shehen? Now again, she's getting
along in years a little bit, so she obviously has
some grandchildren she wants to pay attention to. But are
you surprised tough to give up a Senate seat, don't
you think?
Speaker 3 (21:55):
Yeah? Absolutely, I was very surprised that she gave it up.
I mean, she did a job for a Democrat, and
you know what, she did the best she could. And
I just like, I agree with you one hundred percent.
I think it's going to be Chris Sun. I think
he understands national politics. He knows how to be a
(22:15):
national politician. He did a great job as governor. I mean,
he really grew to state and he understands them wants
and needs of the of his constituency. And I think
Kelly Aot's going to do a good job replacing him
in that part. But as far as senator being a senator,
(22:37):
he comes from a political family. I believe his father
was a chief of staff, wasn't he.
Speaker 2 (22:42):
Oh? His dad former Governor Johnson, who was George Bush's
chief of staff at the White House, and then John
s New's son, John his namesake son was the United
States senator for I believe two terms up in New Hampshire.
I happened to have been with christ Sinunus Saturday night,
(23:02):
ironically at a dinner in Boston, and we talked quite
a bit, uh, And it's pretty clear to me that
he's got a lot of options. I think that he's
being pursued by some of the national media uh outfits.
They you know, he's he's he's a guy who's humorous,
(23:23):
he's funny. Listen to him give a tremendous speech on
Saturday night. He he's very quick, you know, he's he's sharp.
He's a sharp m I T graduate and and engineering.
I mean that's you know, he's he's he's a he's
a really smart guy. Did a good job as governor. Now,
he did say, uh that he really wasn't interested in
(23:47):
going to Washington when he was asked about a potential
run for senate, uh and be be a what he
called the backseater, meaning that he likes to be a leader.
But I think that again, if you know, he probably
would make much more money with a television contract than
he would as a United States senator. But he's still young.
(24:09):
He's fifty years of age he could be elected if
he were to choose to run, he could be elected
three times to the Senate. He could serve eighteen years
in the Senate and be merely seventy years of age,
which by most Senate US Senate standards is young when
you look at the Mitch McConnell's and the Ed Markey's
(24:32):
and the Elizabeth Warrens of the world. I mean, he'd
be like a kid. But again, I think it's going
to be up to the voters in New Hampshire. You
got four federal you know, you have two members of
Congress right now who are Democrats, and you have two
(24:53):
US Senators, Shaheen and Hassen, both former governors. I think
it's going to be a battle, and I think it's
gonna make New Hampshire. Normally New Hampshire is the focus
of a presidential primary in the in the months of
January and February, New Hampshire is gonna be in the
middle of a spotlight and as a battleground state to
(25:17):
control the US Senate. How exciting is that. I think
it's pretty cool.
Speaker 3 (25:21):
Yeah, I agree with you one hundred percent. And the
thing is he's he's gonna represent New Hampshire, which is
like it's a great state, as you said, it's it's
a really good state. And a lot of a lot
of the voters in New Hampshire, as you said, I'm
in the southern part of the state because of the
most populous cities that a lot of them are transplanted
(25:43):
for mass And the say in this yere was, don't
masch up in New Hampshire. But I believe Sanunu can
play the game and not the game. But he knows
politics and and you know what, I'm a Trump supporter,
as you well know, and I believe Chrisnunu understands like
military in all the issues, the worldwide issues, and I think,
(26:05):
you know, he may be the guy that stands up
to Trump on some of these things where Trump goes overboard.
Although it's hard to stand up to Trump. I understand that,
and I agree with a lot of stuff Trump's storm,
But right now I don't see the whole big picture
with him. But I think Snunu could be a voice
of reason in that whole thing. Well.
Speaker 2 (26:25):
The thing that makes Sonnu particularly attractive, and it also
makes Scott Brown attractive, and that they are Republicans but
they're not doctrinaire Republicans, and I think that, you know,
Governor Sanunu or Scott Brown would represent the interest of
New Hampshire and if they had to disagree with the President.
I was surprised that I believe that President Trump still
(26:49):
has a line of communication open to Chris Snunu. They
they they talk periodically and even if you disagree, if
you're Donald Trump, you have to and you talk to
Christan Una, realize you're talking to a pretty smart guy.
He may disagree with President Trump on some things, but
he's a smart guy. And any political party in America
(27:12):
this day needs smart people, and both Scott Brown and
Kristan Unu are smart people and that could be very
advantageous and neither one of them, you know, the Republicans
in New Hampshire sometimes end up picking someone who's a
little further to the right of where New Hampshire is.
New Hampshire's a purple state. It's not a rock rib
Republican state like it used to be. But it just
(27:35):
elected a Republican governor, re elected, re elected a woman
who had been a senator. Now she's a governor. Christan
Unho was the governor. Maybe he's going to go back
to the Senate. We're going to see, that's for sure. Bernie,
appreciate you call, as we always real quick.
Speaker 3 (27:51):
Then thanks for let me speak. My wife and my
son's twin sister and I were going down atap my
son out. He's going to be a US soldier next week.
We're very powder of him. And if anyone's pout of
whether your son's a lawyer or a doctor, or a
factory worker or an engineer, nobody's ever better as pout
as I have of my son becoming a US soldier.
(28:14):
Thank you.
Speaker 2 (28:14):
Well, I'll tell you this. That's something you have in
common with Kristinnu. He has a twenty year old son
who is now a US Marine. You know a lot
of times you think about, you know, the children of politicians.
Apparently his son said, hey, dad, you know I'd rather
(28:35):
go and uh and give back to the country and
spend some time as a US Marine as a helicopter pilot.
So he's he's a pretty bright kid. I'm sure there
was he could have gone just about an ecology he wanted.
So gives you a little insight into the Sonunu family,
which I think people need to understand. And your son
is right in the same category as Christ's son here.
(28:56):
You know, I'm sure your son had plenty of options
in front of him. He owes the military. What's he
what's the boot camp? Is you go down to boot camp? Graduation?
Is that what's going on?
Speaker 3 (29:06):
Yeah? We'll go to Fort Jackson, then he goes to
ai T, then he goes to Fort Benning.
Speaker 2 (29:12):
Okay, so he's he's the US Army. Is he looking
to become a US Army ranger by any chance?
Speaker 3 (29:17):
If he's a ranger? Yeah, we talked about this the
first week when he went to boot camp with my
wife was all the story. Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's he
was the un h and he chose to be an
Army ranger, he said. And what he told my wife's
surday was he says, mom, there's two models the rangers.
One the women is lead the rangers, lead the way,
(29:38):
and the other one is sore spante. And that's why
I want to be a ranger. All right, all right,
thank you, Den.
Speaker 2 (29:46):
You should be very proud of your son. Please say
HI to him for all of us. Okay, congratulated for
all of us.
Speaker 3 (29:51):
Thank you.
Speaker 2 (29:51):
Thanks Bernie talk to you. We'll take quick break, a
couple of calls on the other other side. I'd like
more calls six one seven, two thirty one line there,
six one seven. I get excited about what I think
will be a really good US Senate race in our backyard.
That's what excites me about it. Uh. And I think
(30:13):
the Democrats will put someone up. They got a couple
of congress people up there who could easily stand for
move moving up if you will. You know, COEQ will
just something of the House of the House and Senate.
But look, most House members always also aspired being in
the Senate. We'll see what happens. I'm here for the
(30:33):
next hour fifteen minutes, and if you're not interested in
talking about that, we can move on. But I love
this topic. I'm a political guy. I think most of
you are as well, and this is a race that
is just beginning to form. Love to get your impression.
Coming back on Nightside.
Speaker 1 (30:50):
Now back to Dan Ray live from the Window World
night Side Studios. I'm WBZ News Radio.
Speaker 2 (30:58):
I've got to get all my clocks in order. Here.
Rob has the big clock in the studio. Let's go
next to one of my favorite call is Laurie from Idaho.
Lauria A. Youre going to come back here and join
us for the big brunch on April twenty seventh. How
are you tonight?
Speaker 5 (31:13):
I'm gonna try. I'm doing well, except that that green
glog commercial just as that made me hurt. That's so disgusting.
Speaker 2 (31:19):
But the green block I missed it. I sometimes believe.
Speaker 5 (31:23):
You're talking about a fog drain and he's talking about it.
Speaker 2 (31:26):
Oh yeah, yeah. Anyway, moving on, they try to catch
your attention, and obviously they succeeded with you. Not maybe
for the right reason, but no twentyth thing. I know
that you were originally from New Hampshire, right, so you
got some of some hometown on the line.
Speaker 5 (31:44):
Yeah, oh yeah, what do you say? This is so exciting? Yeah,
I'm very excited, you know, And I love Kristin and
who and I don't. I would be very very surprised
if he did this. I mean, he's he's said all
along he wants to, you know, back in the family
life and give us this other stuff, and he doesn't.
Speaker 3 (31:59):
I mean, can you.
Speaker 5 (32:00):
Imagine who's sitting in senate meeting. He's going to be
like that kid in fourth grade that's got ants in
his pants, So I think he's he's not he's not
cut out for Washington just yet until he runs for president.
But I do like Scott Brown, so that might be interesting.
Speaker 2 (32:15):
Well. I think that they are both would be formidable candidates.
I can tell you that I was at a dinner
with full M Governor Snunu and I have I have
an email here from I'm not going to identify who
(32:37):
it is, but a good friend of mine, Chrisnu should
seriously consider running for Shaheen's seat because he would win.
How far he goes after he wins, after he wins,
is anybody's guests. That's a friend of mine who thinks
that he's a presidential timber uh, I absolutely, well, Again,
he has the disadvantage of coming out of a small state. Bye.
(33:00):
He is very smart. He's young. He's only fifty. Turned
fifty on election day, ironically, November this past November fifth.
I interviewed him that night and we talked about he
had turned fifty. It was like wow, but he that
I watched. I watched him give a speech in Boston
(33:20):
on Saturday night. He was incredible. It was it was
off his top of his head. He was funny, he
was engaging, he was entertaining. He had the audience on
the palm of his hand, and he didn't he didn't
go really hardcore political on it. I mean, it wasn't
like he was up there trying to, you know, preach
New Hampshire over Massachusetts, or he's he went to school
(33:43):
in Massachusetts. What was he talking about your Republicans over Democrats.
It was it was humorous, it was funny, it was entertaining.
It was exactly what it should be. And I think
we need more of that in politics, as opposed to
people like Chuck Schumer or Mitch McConnell, who, yeah, they
just drone on and on. You know, if it's if
(34:04):
it's McConnell, you don't know when he's gonna stop speaking
or when he's gonna start speaking. And if it's Schumer,
you know, it's like, we will win, we will win.
I mean, you know those guys well, and they're not
the only ones in the in the U S. And
and get them some B twelve shots or something. I
(34:25):
don't know. They just well, term limits would be wonderful.
I agree with that, but no, it's it's none of
them are going to vote in favor of something that's
going to end their ability to to stay at the
at the troth. Now, Christinn, who is the type of
(34:47):
guy who would I think again, he's shown he could
win in New Hampshire. Uh, you know, Scott Brown has
yet to shown he shown he could win. He ran
one race in Austin. You know, they labeled him a
carpetbag her and all of that, you know, garbage job.
Speaker 5 (35:04):
But I fo Christian who would win?
Speaker 2 (35:07):
But that's right, No one's going to label christ and
who do that? And I think he has an appeal
to moderates. And I'll tell you the Republicans need to
need to get some representative representation either in the center
of Howison, New Hampshire. They're a purple state with the
entire their entire delegation. I mean, we could be if
Susan Collins loses next year and she's up for election,
(35:29):
she could be a Republican loss and that would be
the I think the last ouch. Yeah, well, the last
Republican senator. I think there's one congressman who's still a
Republican from northern Maine. But I mean, come on, do
we want to turn New England into Massachusetts a one
(35:50):
party revision. Ever, wonder I think that's a good idea.
Speaker 5 (35:54):
You know, Well, so the election isn't until twenty six, right.
Speaker 2 (35:59):
Yeah, oh, this plenty of time. But I would assume that.
Speaker 5 (36:02):
Time to live his little fun life after his governorship
and go out and do and maybe he'll he'll read.
I mean, I think if he runs, he'll win. I
just don't know if his the way his life is,
you know, if he wants a little more freedom for
a while.
Speaker 2 (36:14):
Yeah. Well, if I was Kristan Unhu, and I'm not,
but if I were Christiana, I'd love to be fifty
years of agent Kristan Unhu. He should have spent today
calling the hundred most influential Republicans in New Hampshire and saying, look,
I don't know what I'm going to do, but i'd
ask you to stand down until I make my decision.
And I think you have that conversation with one hundred
(36:34):
influential people in your party, and all of them, I
suspect are going to say, you know, look fine with me,
no need to make a decision now. And if I
decide to go off and become a network commentator, he's
done a lot on CNN, as you know that's a possibility,
or I've decided then I'm going to make a run
(36:55):
for this. I mean, he's in the person.
Speaker 5 (36:58):
He's also so brighton so is he that that that
commentary thing might get a little old for him after
a while and he might want to do something else.
Speaker 2 (37:06):
Well, there would be when you talk about travel, this
is much travel involved in that. Because I got to
tell you, Yeah, the networks, you know CNN and I
don't think Fox would. Fox doesn't need them. They have
all the Republicans they need. Uh, CNN needs them. I
don't know that he would go to MSNBC. He might
go to a NBC, ABC, U CBS. They have Sunday
(37:27):
morning shows. He has plenty of options, including running for
the US Senate. Not bad when you're fifty years of
age to have those options. Most of us at the
age of fifty saying how much do I have to?
When can I take Social Security? That's not the furthest
thing from his mind, that's for sure. How's the weather
(37:48):
out there?
Speaker 3 (37:48):
In exciting?
Speaker 2 (37:51):
Would you get today? We're going to get over the weekend,
So tell us what our weather forecast will be for
the upcoming weekend.
Speaker 5 (37:59):
Today we've had rain and anywhere like forty one to
thirty nine degrees, and it's supposed to rain for the
next three days and then there might be some snow
with no accumulation in three days. And Jim bersons in
the forties and the forties and the forties, it's very.
Speaker 2 (38:14):
Well, here's the deal. Here, here's the deal. We're supposed
to get rain. All the weather fore casters that I
watched tonight said over the weekend, Saturday into Sunday and
maybe into Monday. So that's exactly what it is. What
you have today, We're going to get by the by
the weekend.
Speaker 1 (38:28):
So simple, you got it.
Speaker 2 (38:30):
Laurie is always thank you so much for checking in.
We'll talk soon.
Speaker 3 (38:34):
Okay, good night, thank you, have a great night, Laurie.
Speaker 2 (38:37):
Good night. Okay, here's what we're going to do. I
could see that there wasn't much interest in that race,
even though I loved it, and I want to thank Christine,
Bernie and Laurie who took the time to call. I
love talking politics, and I love talking politics where there's
a number of options. This is not like you know,
(38:58):
I hate Donald Trump or I hate the Democrats. This
is like we're talking options, and so we will leave
that subject, okay. But what I will do is I
will change topics on the other side of the eleven
o'clock news, and God knows, I hope I come up
with something you're interested in. And maybe I'll even go
to open lines. I don't know. I will remind you

I'm sixty eight years old and I lost forty pounds
thanks to Awaken What eighty Weight loss and looking at pictures,
I realized that my collar wasn't good. I looked bloated, constantly, tired,

call Awaken What eighty. The combination of the diet and
the coaching really pushed me over the top. My self

Speaker 9 (41:55):
Good evening, I'm Dan Watkins. Here's what's happening. The chances
of a government shut down at the end of the
week are ramping up now that the Democrats and the
Senate have come out against the House passed measure that
would avoid one. ABC Stephen Portnoy with the latest.
Speaker 8 (42:11):
The top Senate Democrats as Republicans have eschewed by partisanship
and don't have the votes on their own to push
the House passed spending bill through a Democratic led filibuster.
Chuck Schumer says the Senate should instead consider a clean
one month extension of government funding through April eleventh.
Speaker 2 (42:26):
We should vote on that.
Speaker 8 (42:27):
But even if Republicans in the Senate were interested, the
House is on recess, not due back until a week
from Monday. A Senate stalemate could lead to a Friday
night shutdown. Stephen Portnoy, ABC News Washington.
Speaker 9 (42:39):
The Department of Education is laying off over thirteen hundred workers.
It comes after President Trump has suggested getting rid of
the department altogether. CBS's Stacey lenn reports, nearly half of.
Speaker 10 (42:50):
The workforce is getting cut.
Speaker 11 (42:52):
We wanted to make sure that we kept all of
the right people, to good people, to make sure that
the outward facing programs, the grants, the appropriation to come
from Congress, all of that are being met and none
of that's going to fall.

Stacey Lynne, CBS News, Washington
It's night time with Dan Ray. I'm telling Easy Boston's radio.
Speaker 2 (00:08):
All right, welcome back everyone, and again I want to
give that number, that long COVID number, one more time.
Speaker 3 (00:15):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (00:16):
It doesn't hurt folks to give them a call and
see what services might be available or what you know,
what might help you, Uh six one seven five two
five three six six five one of the things. And
I'm gonna say this and not reference uh any criticism,
(00:36):
but sometimes when you get in a situation where you're
really debilitated by this horrible, horrible, but it's much better
to say, Okay, I've told my story, but I want
to listen because maybe, maybe, just maybe there's someone who
can provide some help. And Julie Sullivan is great, I think.
(01:02):
And she sent me more material today than anyone. She
pull pulled stuff together for me. She was a great guest. Uh,
answered the questions extraordinarily empathetic. If you've missed the program,
you may want to just go to Nightside and demand
tomorrow and listen to the nine o'clock hour. She's the
program manager. She's been there a long time at the
COVID Recovery Center in Brigham and Women's Hospital. The phone
(01:25):
number six one seven five two five three six six five.
Rob has written that number down. I had people yesterday
who called me looking for numbers. I had asked that
Rob write a number down. I'm sure he did, and
I've got to now get back tomorrow and answer emails
to people who you know I want to help. One
(01:46):
of the things I want to do in this program,
obviously is entertain and inform and all of that, and
have good conversations. But I also occasionally, or maybe even
a little more than occasionally, do something that might help.
We talked about mass energy bills. By the way, I
got on the phone this morning and I changed my
(02:07):
energy supplier. Easy, easy to do, and I went from
paying about twenty five cents a killowatt hour down to
about twelve and a half cents, basically cut it in half. Now,
that don't necessarily cut my bill in half, but it will.
It will save me some money. And I'm in a
(02:30):
nine month contract with a different company. The lowest rates
that I found were with a company called Constellation, And
I got to tell you, I'm not pushing for any
specific company, but do your research mass energy rates dot com.
Don't just sit there and pay those big bills. Do
(02:53):
what you can to and we talked about that last night.
You need to listen to the two hours last night
our night sat in Demand if you want. I'm not
going to replay the hours right now now. In terms
of an announcement, Rob, we should have had a drum
roll here or something, but I would like all of
the night side listeners, and even if you're not a
(03:14):
nightside listener, to know that every couple of years we
try to do something that gives night side listeners an opportunity.
I can meet some of you. Many of you have
come to know by name over the phone. But we
did a couple of trips to Polar Park to see
baseball games. But I thought this year we're going to
(03:38):
do something different. And here's what we're going to do
on Sunday. And you may want to make a note
of this, Okay, and Rob, you know as well as
I do, if you could note a couple of things
here in case people call in Sunday April twenty seven,
that's the Sunday after Easter, April twenty seventh, twenty twenty five,
(03:59):
We're going to have a night side brunch at eleven o'clock.
I'm going to run from about eleven to one. However,
however long you want to stay eleven to one thirty,
we will be entertained by the Winnaker b ind Bill
and Bo Winnaker. They have performed at this location for
about ten months and they tell me it is a
(04:21):
fabulous restaurant. It is called Neroli n E R O
l I. They have a brunch option. If you want
to go all in and have brunch with us, that's great.
They also have a separate breakfast menu and a lunch menu,
so if you just want to have something simple, something
simple pancakes, not going to break the bank. That no,
(04:41):
will the brunch break the bank, believe it or not.
I mean, this is really a great place. I've not
been there, but I trust Bill Winnaker implicitly. They also
have a lunch menu, so if you sell me said,
oh my noom time, eleven o'clock, eleven thirty, I want
a hamburger, they got they got that on the menu
as well. Here there's the number you need to call
(05:02):
to make reservations. Okay, and please don't make a reservation
unless you intend to come, because it's a big location.
But our area will be relatively small, and I'm gonna
it reminds you that when you make your reservation, tell
them you want to be sitting in my section, in
(05:24):
the Dan Ray section. Simple as that. That way we'll
get a chance to meet everybody, take some selfies, just
have some fun. The number to make the reservations add
at the restaurant are seven eight to one three, seven
five two, five nine four. I give that number again
in one more time here and a little bit later
on as well. Seven eight one three, seven five two
(05:45):
five nine four. This restaurant is on Route one A
in Westwood, two eighty two Washington Street. A lot of parking,
big parking lot behind the restaurant, free on street parking,
so easy to get to, easy to find. The reservations
need to be made as soon as possible if you
want to join us. Seven eight one three seven five
(06:07):
two five nine four. There's no price for the entertainment.
There's no cover charge. It's just we'll all have breakfast.
Maybe you'll have brunch and I'll have breakfast, and someone
else will has a couple of hamburgers. Whatever. Rob you
got that number. Seven eight one three, seven five two
five nine four The restaurant is Neuroli n E ro
(06:29):
o l I. It's an Italian restaurant, which of course
is tops in my books. Anyway, Sunday, April twenty seventh,
twenty and twenty five, a little over a month from now,
at eleven o'clock, looking forward to meeting as many people.
You don't have to be a nightside listener to come.
You can bring your friends, uh. And I believe that
our producer Lightning aka Marida will join us. I think
(06:51):
she will be there. I don't know if Rob is
going to venture down from north of Boston, but certainly
we'd love to have him come down as well, and
love to have as many of it there as possible.
The capacity is immense. I mean, we could have one
hundred people there easily, and by the way, we could
have a hundred people by within a week, and once
(07:11):
those reservations close off, that's it. They haven't limited us yet,
but I would. I made my reservations today, doctor Good, Seriously,
trust me, I did. All right, let's move on here
to the matters at hand. Big story out of New
Hampshire today. Now some of you might have missed it,
(07:36):
and if you did, of course, My job is to
make sure that you're up to date on what's going on.
The senior senator, I think she is the senior Senator
from New Hampshire. Former New Hampshire Governor Jean Shaheen announced
today that she will not seek re election. Now, what
makes that interesting, Well, what makes it interesting is New
(07:58):
Hampshire is so it's called the Purple State. It currently
is represented by two Democratic senators and two members of
the House Democrats, so all four members of the congressional
delegation are Democrats. Chris Pappus is a congressman in the south,
(08:20):
Maggie Goodlander is a congressman in sort of the district
is kind of cut down the middle, but there's really
kind of a southeast district in a northwest district in
New Hampshire. And the two senators out there, Maggie Hassen
and Jean Shaheen. Now, Sahen announced today that she has decided,
(08:42):
which she has every right to do. She's going to
serve out her term to twenty twenty six. But that
will be an open set. And let's listen to a
little bit of this. Rob Let's go first to twenty
three A.
Speaker 4 (08:54):
To my remarkable and dedicated staff, and to all those
who have partnered with us over the years.
Speaker 5 (09:00):
Thank you.
Speaker 4 (09:01):
Together we have made a difference. Above all, thanks to
my family who have always been by my side, to
my husband Billy, who's been there through good times and bad,
our daughters Stephanie, Stacy and Molly, our sons in law Craig,
Ryan and Hugh, and our seven wonderful grandchildren. They're the best.
Speaker 2 (09:26):
Okay, thanks very much. She talks about urgent challenges, but
she's not going to be there, and this is her
comment at twenty three, b Rob.
Speaker 4 (09:40):
There are urgent challenges ahead, both here at home and
around the world. And while I'm not seeking reelection, believe me,
I am not retiring. I am determined to work every
day over the next two years and beyond to continue
to try and make a difference for the people of
New hamp sure in this country. I hope you'll join
(10:02):
me in that effort.
Speaker 2 (10:06):
Shehen, of course the former governor of New Hampshire, as
was Maggie Hassen Kelly aot. The current governor used to
be a US Senator. So it's sort of a small
pool that New Hampshire residents seem to rely upon both
for their state leadership as governor and their congressional leadership
in the Senate and in the House. She of course
(10:29):
a well written statement. I don't think this comes as
a stunning surprise, but it does change the landscape in
New Hampshire. We're going to talk about that. This is
her The last bite I will play from Jean Shaheen tonight,
Senator Jean Shaheen at cut twenty three c rob.
Speaker 4 (10:48):
From the bottom of my heart, thank you New Hampshire.
Listening to your stories, being your champion, working with you
on the tough fights has been the honor of a lifetime,
and we'll keep at it.
Speaker 2 (11:07):
By the way, for those of you who are listening
and don't know New Hampshire, New Hampshire is a really
neat state. I mean it's a rural state in many respects.
It's got a big suburban tier in the southern part
of the state south of Manchester, and it has some
pretty big, good sized cities in terms of a state
(11:29):
the size of New Hampshire, Manchester and Portsmouth Salem conquered.
It is a winter wonderland. It is a well run state.
Democratic governors Republican governors have done a great job up
there over time, and they deserve a great replacement for
Jean Shaheen. And that's what we're going to talk about.
(11:52):
I want to hear from as many of you as possible,
because the US Senate right now is fifty three to
forty seven Republican, and that is a Senate that will
be in play in the twenty twenty sixth election. The
Republicans have an advantage obviously at this point they have
an advantage of six three, but fifty three forty seven.
(12:13):
There are already two other Democrats who have said they
are giving up their seats. This could be a year
for the Republicans, and of course it all depend in
large part upon how Donald Trump is doing. It could
be a year where the Republicans to open up their
lead and perhaps have the largest lead in the Senate
in many many years, again especially with three Democratic senators
(12:35):
now retiring, including Shahem or or conversely, it could go
the other way. I want to talk to you about
who you think should run up there on both sides,
Republican and Democrat. And also for those of you in
Massachusetts who pretty much realize that it doesn't make much
of an effort here in Massachusetts, the Democrats tend to win.
(12:56):
This is a play a way in which you could
have a tremendous impact, whether you're a Democrat or a Republican,
got in New Hampshire and campaign for whoever's running for
Senate up in New Hampshire. Let me tell you that
is a great opportunity. With that said, I'm going to
open up the phone line six one, seven, two, five,
(13:16):
four ten thirty six one seven, nine three one ten
thirty if you're from New Hampshire and you want to
flow a name, maybe a name that has been thought of,
maybe a name that hasn't been thought of. That's great.
On the Republican side, there are two major candidates who
could run. Former Governor Christan Unu I think would be
(13:37):
the odds on favorite if he were in He's been
elected four times up there as governor, his brother was
a US Senator from up there, from in New Hampshire,
and of course his dad before him had been the
governor of New Hampshire. And Christan Uno has just finished
eight years as governor and it did a great job
as governor. I think the best governor in the country
in my opinion. UH Scott, former Massachusetts senator is in
(14:03):
New Hampshire. Uh he has run once. Uh he in Massachusetts,
won a special election, then lost to Elizabeth Warren in
twenty twelve, and lost in New Hampshire when he took
on Maggie Hassen again. I think it would be Chris
Sunhu's race if he wants it, but there may be others,
(14:25):
so join the conversation. Six one, seven, two, five, four
to ten thirty six one seven, nine, three one ten thirty.
I get excited about this because what this means is
that New Hampshire, Little old New Hampshire maybe is no
longer a presidential battleground state, but it's maybe one of
zap ground zero for the twenty twenty six Senate races.
(14:47):
Every year, every two years, a third of the US
Senate turns over. We'll be back on nightside. Let's talk
some politics. Want to hear from you in New Hampshire
who you would like to see in the Senate to
represent your interest with coming back on nightside.
Speaker 1 (15:00):
Back to Dan ray Line from the Window World night
Side Studios on w b Z News Radio.
Speaker 2 (15:06):
All right, let's see what folks think about uh this race.
I mean this, this will be a very closely watched
national race in twenty twenty six. No presidential race in
twenty twenty six, but a watted stake. Christine is in Denham, Massachusetts. Christine,
what's your thoughts on what's going on up in New Hampshire?
(15:26):
And it's going to get interesting.
Speaker 6 (15:29):
It's going to get interesting. I think Scott Brown is
going to put his foot in the door off.
Speaker 3 (15:34):
Really do well?
Speaker 2 (15:35):
Do you think you think that he would he would
challenge Sonunu if Snunu decided he wanted the first.
Speaker 6 (15:41):
Shot at Yeah, definitely. I think Scott Brown's on the
wall to be to run the president too, I really do.
Speaker 2 (15:52):
He's got a few guys between them, one guy in
his name, assuming that Donald Trump gets uh, has a
good four years uh. I think J. D. Vance Was
would probably have some thoughts about that. Christine, I don't know, so,
so tell tell me what why do you think Scott
Brown should be the Republican nominee? If he you know,
(16:15):
obviously there are others I don't I like. I.
Speaker 6 (16:22):
I just think he's trying to get himself in there
and then he's going to run the president. That's my
I think, And I don't know, well, I don't know.
Speaker 2 (16:31):
Uh, let's see. Uh, it's I think it's a long
way to go for Scott Brown, having lost two Senate races,
one in Massachusetts and one in New Hampshire. But if
you were to if if Governor Sonunu, who I think
(16:56):
uh might be offered a fairly significant contract by any
of a number of the major television networks, he may
look at that and say, hey, that's a path.
Speaker 3 (17:12):
He just.
Speaker 2 (17:14):
Sununu just turned fifty in last November. He actually turned
fifty on election day, November fifth, ironically, remember talking to
him about that that night. Scott is a little older.
Scott is in his early sixties by a young guy. Nonetheless, Yeah,
so I don't know. You know, it will be It
(17:34):
will be interesting. I'll tell you this. It gives Republicans
in Massachusetts and Democrats in Massachusetts, you know, a real
race that may have national impact to go spend some
time in New Hampshire campaigning for whoever, for the D
O the R whoever they prefer. Think upon it? You know, yeah, exactly,
(17:58):
You never know, Steve, Thanks thanks for checking in. I
got you down as Scott Brown and you think he
might run for president? Hey, I didn't think Donald Trump
was gonna run, and then I didn't think he could win,
So I'm no expert. Thanks Christine. Thanks so yeah.
Speaker 6 (18:17):
Next door to the restaurant, they have a like like
I'll take out two like shandwiches and wood to go
when they have a dollar Cassen.
Speaker 2 (18:29):
Yeah, I'm hearing great things. I'm hearing great things about
the restaurant, and we're looking looking forward to April twenty seventh.
I hope you're gonna be there, get a chance to
meet you and a whole bunch of other nightside listeners.
Speaker 6 (18:41):
And the Muffin House is right next to her.
Speaker 5 (18:44):
Also.
Speaker 2 (18:45):
Oh man, now I'm gonna blow my diere totally in
that day. Thanks Christine. It sounds too tempting, right, Thanks
so much. Bye bye, talk to you soon. I'll see
you on the I hope to see you on the
twenty seventh.
Speaker 6 (19:00):
Definitely, I'm going to try to go great.
Speaker 2 (19:03):
Okay, make sure you get that reservation in though, because
and make sure that you're in our section. Okay. Thanks,
Thanks Christine.
Speaker 6 (19:09):
Talk to you le okay, Hie, Ralph, thank you. Okay.
Speaker 2 (19:13):
All right, So I'm looking for maybe a couple of
predictions here. From folks in New Hampshire. Brownie in New
Hampshire joins us on the other side. But who do
you like up there? Jean Jaheenes stepping away? She'll continue
as Senator for another twenty months or whatever is left
in her twenty two months, Yeah, because she would be
Senator until January of twenty seven, so she's got almost
(19:35):
two years left. Scott Brown Christinunu on the Republican side,
If there's another Republican let me know. I don't think
that Kelly Ayot, who was in the Senate and is
now the governor, just elected governor, would be interested in
going back to the Senate. I think there is always
that sort of been there, done that attitude, and she's
going to have to do a good job as governor,
(19:58):
and most govern want to stand for reelection. It's a
two year term up there, which makes it difficult because
they're always running for election or who On the Democratic side,
I'm not as familiar. I certainly know about Congressman PAPIs,
and I have heard about the other member of Congress
up there. For a long time there was some Democratic
(20:20):
members of Congress and they either were upset or or
resigned that so there's they're both teams, both the Republicans,
the r's and the d's actually have legitimate candidates up there,
which makes it so interesting. In a state that could
go either way, New Hampshi is considered a purple state,
(20:41):
neither red nor blue. Purple. You have the numbers, I
got some wide open lines here. Where are my political
analysts six one, seven, two, five, four, ten thirty six,
one seven, nine, three, one, ten thirty. I'd love to
talk about this until at least eleven o'clock. If you know,
we'll find something else. But this, to me is the
most exciting story that I know that w b Z
(21:01):
covered a lot. It was a lead story on at
least two of the news stations during the day, if
not at night. Join the conversation. Be right back on Nightside.
Speaker 1 (21:13):
Night Side with Dan Ray. I'm WBZ Boston's News Radio.
Speaker 2 (21:20):
All right, man, I'm telling you I want to hear
from some folks up in New Hampshire an open United
States Senate seat in twenty twenty six. I think it's
gonna be fun. Let me go to Bernie, who is
in New Hampshire. Bernie, how are you tonight?
Speaker 3 (21:38):
I'm well you'reself, Dad, great.
Speaker 2 (21:40):
Are you surprised that Senator shehen? Now again, she's getting
along in years a little bit, so she obviously has
some grandchildren she wants to pay attention to. But are
you surprised tough to give up a Senate seat, don't
you think?
Speaker 3 (21:55):
Yeah? Absolutely, I was very surprised that she gave it up.
I mean, she did a job for a Democrat, and
you know what, she did the best she could. And
I just like, I agree with you one hundred percent.
I think it's going to be Chris Sun. I think
he understands national politics. He knows how to be a
(22:15):
national politician. He did a great job as governor. I mean,
he really grew to state and he understands them wants
and needs of the of his constituency. And I think
Kelly Aot's going to do a good job replacing him
in that part. But as far as senator being a senator,
(22:37):
he comes from a political family. I believe his father
was a chief of staff, wasn't he.
Speaker 2 (22:42):
Oh? His dad former Governor Johnson, who was George Bush's
chief of staff at the White House, and then John
s New's son, John his namesake son was the United
States senator for I believe two terms up in New Hampshire.
I happened to have been with christ Sinunus Saturday night,
(23:02):
ironically at a dinner in Boston, and we talked quite
a bit, uh, And it's pretty clear to me that
he's got a lot of options. I think that he's
being pursued by some of the national media uh outfits.
They you know, he's he's he's a guy who's humorous,
(23:23):
he's funny. Listen to him give a tremendous speech on
Saturday night. He he's very quick, you know, he's he's sharp.
He's a sharp m I T graduate and and engineering.
I mean that's you know, he's he's he's a he's
a really smart guy. Did a good job as governor. Now,
he did say, uh that he really wasn't interested in
(23:47):
going to Washington when he was asked about a potential
run for senate, uh and be be a what he
called the backseater, meaning that he likes to be a leader.
But I think that again, if you know, he probably
would make much more money with a television contract than
he would as a United States senator. But he's still young.
(24:09):
He's fifty years of age he could be elected if
he were to choose to run, he could be elected
three times to the Senate. He could serve eighteen years
in the Senate and be merely seventy years of age,
which by most Senate US Senate standards is young when
you look at the Mitch McConnell's and the Ed Markey's
(24:32):
and the Elizabeth Warrens of the world. I mean, he'd
be like a kid. But again, I think it's going
to be up to the voters in New Hampshire. You
got four federal you know, you have two members of
Congress right now who are Democrats, and you have two
(24:53):
US Senators, Shaheen and Hassen, both former governors. I think
it's going to be a battle, and I think it's
gonna make New Hampshire. Normally New Hampshire is the focus
of a presidential primary in the in the months of
January and February, New Hampshire is gonna be in the
middle of a spotlight and as a battleground state to
(25:17):
control the US Senate. How exciting is that. I think
it's pretty cool.
Speaker 3 (25:21):
Yeah, I agree with you one hundred percent. And the
thing is he's he's gonna represent New Hampshire, which is
like it's a great state, as you said, it's it's
a really good state. And a lot of a lot
of the voters in New Hampshire, as you said, I'm
in the southern part of the state because of the
most populous cities that a lot of them are transplanted
(25:43):
for mass And the say in this yere was, don't
masch up in New Hampshire. But I believe Sanunu can
play the game and not the game. But he knows
politics and and you know what, I'm a Trump supporter,
as you well know, and I believe Chrisnunu understands like
military in all the issues, the worldwide issues, and I think,
(26:05):
you know, he may be the guy that stands up
to Trump on some of these things where Trump goes overboard.
Although it's hard to stand up to Trump. I understand that,
and I agree with a lot of stuff Trump's storm,
But right now I don't see the whole big picture
with him. But I think Snunu could be a voice
of reason in that whole thing. Well.
Speaker 2 (26:25):
The thing that makes Sonnu particularly attractive, and it also
makes Scott Brown attractive, and that they are Republicans but
they're not doctrinaire Republicans, and I think that, you know,
Governor Sanunu or Scott Brown would represent the interest of
New Hampshire and if they had to disagree with the President.
I was surprised that I believe that President Trump still
(26:49):
has a line of communication open to Chris Snunu. They
they they talk periodically and even if you disagree, if
you're Donald Trump, you have to and you talk to
Christan Una, realize you're talking to a pretty smart guy.
He may disagree with President Trump on some things, but
he's a smart guy. And any political party in America
(27:12):
this day needs smart people, and both Scott Brown and
Kristan Unu are smart people and that could be very
advantageous and neither one of them, you know, the Republicans
in New Hampshire sometimes end up picking someone who's a
little further to the right of where New Hampshire is.
New Hampshire's a purple state. It's not a rock rib
Republican state like it used to be. But it just
(27:35):
elected a Republican governor, re elected, re elected a woman
who had been a senator. Now she's a governor. Christan
Unho was the governor. Maybe he's going to go back
to the Senate. We're going to see, that's for sure. Bernie,
appreciate you call, as we always real quick.
Speaker 3 (27:51):
Then thanks for let me speak. My wife and my
son's twin sister and I were going down atap my
son out. He's going to be a US soldier next week.
We're very powder of him. And if anyone's pout of
whether your son's a lawyer or a doctor, or a
factory worker or an engineer, nobody's ever better as pout
as I have of my son becoming a US soldier.
(28:14):
Thank you.
Speaker 2 (28:14):
Well, I'll tell you this. That's something you have in
common with Kristinnu. He has a twenty year old son
who is now a US Marine. You know a lot
of times you think about, you know, the children of politicians.
Apparently his son said, hey, dad, you know I'd rather
(28:35):
go and uh and give back to the country and
spend some time as a US Marine as a helicopter pilot.
So he's he's a pretty bright kid. I'm sure there
was he could have gone just about an ecology he wanted.
So gives you a little insight into the Sonunu family,
which I think people need to understand. And your son
is right in the same category as Christ's son here.
(28:56):
You know, I'm sure your son had plenty of options
in front of him. He owes the military. What's he
what's the boot camp? Is you go down to boot camp? Graduation?
Is that what's going on?
Speaker 3 (29:06):
Yeah? We'll go to Fort Jackson, then he goes to
ai T, then he goes to Fort Benning.
Speaker 2 (29:12):
Okay, so he's he's the US Army. Is he looking
to become a US Army ranger by any chance?
Speaker 3 (29:17):
If he's a ranger? Yeah, we talked about this the
first week when he went to boot camp with my
wife was all the story. Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's he
was the un h and he chose to be an
Army ranger, he said. And what he told my wife's
surday was he says, mom, there's two models the rangers.
One the women is lead the rangers, lead the way,
(29:38):
and the other one is sore spante. And that's why
I want to be a ranger. All right, all right,
thank you, Den.
Speaker 2 (29:46):
You should be very proud of your son. Please say
HI to him for all of us. Okay, congratulated for
all of us.
Speaker 3 (29:51):
Thank you.
Speaker 2 (29:51):
Thanks Bernie talk to you. We'll take quick break, a
couple of calls on the other other side. I'd like
more calls six one seven, two thirty one line there,
six one seven. I get excited about what I think
will be a really good US Senate race in our backyard.
That's what excites me about it. Uh. And I think
(30:13):
the Democrats will put someone up. They got a couple
of congress people up there who could easily stand for
move moving up if you will. You know, COEQ will
just something of the House of the House and Senate.
But look, most House members always also aspired being in
the Senate. We'll see what happens. I'm here for the
(30:33):
next hour fifteen minutes, and if you're not interested in
talking about that, we can move on. But I love
this topic. I'm a political guy. I think most of
you are as well, and this is a race that
is just beginning to form. Love to get your impression.
Coming back on Nightside.
Speaker 1 (30:50):
Now back to Dan Ray live from the Window World
night Side Studios. I'm WBZ News Radio.
Speaker 2 (30:58):
I've got to get all my clocks in order. Here.
Rob has the big clock in the studio. Let's go
next to one of my favorite call is Laurie from Idaho.
Lauria A. Youre going to come back here and join
us for the big brunch on April twenty seventh. How
are you tonight?
Speaker 5 (31:13):
I'm gonna try. I'm doing well, except that that green
glog commercial just as that made me hurt. That's so disgusting.
Speaker 2 (31:19):
But the green block I missed it. I sometimes believe.
Speaker 5 (31:23):
You're talking about a fog drain and he's talking about it.
Speaker 2 (31:26):
Oh yeah, yeah. Anyway, moving on, they try to catch
your attention, and obviously they succeeded with you. Not maybe
for the right reason, but no twentyth thing. I know
that you were originally from New Hampshire, right, so you
got some of some hometown on the line.
Speaker 5 (31:44):
Yeah, oh yeah, what do you say? This is so exciting? Yeah,
I'm very excited, you know, And I love Kristin and
who and I don't. I would be very very surprised
if he did this. I mean, he's he's said all
along he wants to, you know, back in the family
life and give us this other stuff, and he doesn't.
Speaker 3 (31:59):
I mean, can you.
Speaker 5 (32:00):
Imagine who's sitting in senate meeting. He's going to be
like that kid in fourth grade that's got ants in
his pants, So I think he's he's not he's not
cut out for Washington just yet until he runs for president.
But I do like Scott Brown, so that might be interesting.
Speaker 2 (32:15):
Well. I think that they are both would be formidable candidates.
I can tell you that I was at a dinner
with full M Governor Snunu and I have I have
an email here from I'm not going to identify who
(32:37):
it is, but a good friend of mine, Chrisnu should
seriously consider running for Shaheen's seat because he would win.
How far he goes after he wins, after he wins,
is anybody's guests. That's a friend of mine who thinks
that he's a presidential timber uh, I absolutely, well, Again,
he has the disadvantage of coming out of a small state. Bye.
(33:00):
He is very smart. He's young. He's only fifty. Turned
fifty on election day, ironically, November this past November fifth.
I interviewed him that night and we talked about he
had turned fifty. It was like wow, but he that
I watched. I watched him give a speech in Boston
(33:20):
on Saturday night. He was incredible. It was it was
off his top of his head. He was funny, he
was engaging, he was entertaining. He had the audience on
the palm of his hand, and he didn't he didn't
go really hardcore political on it. I mean, it wasn't
like he was up there trying to, you know, preach
New Hampshire over Massachusetts, or he's he went to school
(33:43):
in Massachusetts. What was he talking about your Republicans over Democrats.
It was it was humorous, it was funny, it was entertaining.
It was exactly what it should be. And I think
we need more of that in politics, as opposed to
people like Chuck Schumer or Mitch McConnell, who, yeah, they
just drone on and on. You know, if it's if
(34:04):
it's McConnell, you don't know when he's gonna stop speaking
or when he's gonna start speaking. And if it's Schumer,
you know, it's like, we will win, we will win.
I mean, you know those guys well, and they're not
the only ones in the in the U S. And
and get them some B twelve shots or something. I
(34:25):
don't know. They just well, term limits would be wonderful.
I agree with that, but no, it's it's none of
them are going to vote in favor of something that's
going to end their ability to to stay at the
at the troth. Now, Christinn, who is the type of
(34:47):
guy who would I think again, he's shown he could
win in New Hampshire. Uh, you know, Scott Brown has
yet to shown he shown he could win. He ran
one race in Austin. You know, they labeled him a
carpetbag her and all of that, you know, garbage job.
Speaker 5 (35:04):
But I fo Christian who would win?
Speaker 2 (35:07):
But that's right, No one's going to label christ and
who do that? And I think he has an appeal
to moderates. And I'll tell you the Republicans need to
need to get some representative representation either in the center
of Howison, New Hampshire. They're a purple state with the
entire their entire delegation. I mean, we could be if
Susan Collins loses next year and she's up for election,
(35:29):
she could be a Republican loss and that would be
the I think the last ouch. Yeah, well, the last
Republican senator. I think there's one congressman who's still a
Republican from northern Maine. But I mean, come on, do
we want to turn New England into Massachusetts a one
(35:50):
party revision. Ever, wonder I think that's a good idea.
Speaker 5 (35:54):
You know, Well, so the election isn't until twenty six, right.
Speaker 2 (35:59):
Yeah, oh, this plenty of time. But I would assume that.
Speaker 5 (36:02):
Time to live his little fun life after his governorship
and go out and do and maybe he'll he'll read.
I mean, I think if he runs, he'll win. I
just don't know if his the way his life is,
you know, if he wants a little more freedom for
a while.
Speaker 2 (36:14):
Yeah. Well, if I was Kristan Unhu, and I'm not,
but if I were Christiana, I'd love to be fifty
years of agent Kristan Unhu. He should have spent today
calling the hundred most influential Republicans in New Hampshire and saying, look,
I don't know what I'm going to do, but i'd
ask you to stand down until I make my decision.
And I think you have that conversation with one hundred
(36:34):
influential people in your party, and all of them, I
suspect are going to say, you know, look fine with me,
no need to make a decision now. And if I
decide to go off and become a network commentator, he's
done a lot on CNN, as you know that's a possibility,
or I've decided then I'm going to make a run
(36:55):
for this. I mean, he's in the person.
Speaker 5 (36:58):
He's also so brighton so is he that that that
commentary thing might get a little old for him after
a while and he might want to do something else.
Speaker 2 (37:06):
Well, there would be when you talk about travel, this
is much travel involved in that. Because I got to
tell you, Yeah, the networks, you know CNN and I
don't think Fox would. Fox doesn't need them. They have
all the Republicans they need. Uh, CNN needs them. I
don't know that he would go to MSNBC. He might
go to a NBC, ABC, U CBS. They have Sunday
(37:27):
morning shows. He has plenty of options, including running for
the US Senate. Not bad when you're fifty years of
age to have those options. Most of us at the
age of fifty saying how much do I have to?
When can I take Social Security? That's not the furthest
thing from his mind, that's for sure. How's the weather
(37:48):
out there?
Speaker 3 (37:48):
In exciting?
Speaker 2 (37:51):
Would you get today? We're going to get over the weekend,
So tell us what our weather forecast will be for
the upcoming weekend.
Speaker 5 (37:59):
Today we've had rain and anywhere like forty one to
thirty nine degrees, and it's supposed to rain for the
next three days and then there might be some snow
with no accumulation in three days. And Jim bersons in
the forties and the forties and the forties, it's very.
Speaker 2 (38:14):
Well, here's the deal. Here, here's the deal. We're supposed
to get rain. All the weather fore casters that I
watched tonight said over the weekend, Saturday into Sunday and
maybe into Monday. So that's exactly what it is. What
you have today, We're going to get by the by
the weekend.
Speaker 1 (38:28):
So simple, you got it.
Speaker 2 (38:30):
Laurie is always thank you so much for checking in.
We'll talk soon.
Speaker 3 (38:34):
Okay, good night, thank you, have a great night, Laurie.
Speaker 2 (38:37):
Good night. Okay, here's what we're going to do. I
could see that there wasn't much interest in that race,
even though I loved it, and I want to thank Christine,
Bernie and Laurie who took the time to call. I
love talking politics, and I love talking politics where there's
a number of options. This is not like you know,
(38:58):
I hate Donald Trump or I hate the Democrats. This
is like we're talking options, and so we will leave
that subject, okay. But what I will do is I
will change topics on the other side of the eleven
o'clock news, and God knows, I hope I come up
with something you're interested in. And maybe I'll even go
to open lines. I don't know. I will remind you
(39:18):

Speaker 7 (40:18):
I'm sixty eight years old and I lost forty pounds
thanks to Awaken What eighty Weight loss and looking at pictures,
I realized that my collar wasn't good. I looked bloated, constantly, tired,
out of breath. It got to the point where I
decided it was time to pick up the phone and
call Awaken What eighty. The combination of the diet and
