By Brian LawsonAnother Republican is thinking about running for governor, The Union Leader is reporting.
James "Jim" Adams (R-Pittsfield) is a former general district manager for the postal service and has been encouraged to run by New Hampshire Republican leaders.
"I was concerned with the state of the economy and with the 17.5 percent spending increase in the state budget," Adams told the newspaper.
State Sen. Joe Kenney (R-Wakefield) is the only announced Republican gubernatorial candidate.

You have to wonder what
You have to wonder what would happen if Kenney just said to Fergus and party leaders... "take me, I will do whatever you want"
Laughable
A postal worker? That place is a model of efficiency (not!) The Fergus recruits are getting lamer! Joe Kenney is a way better candidate, he is a veteran of 2 wars and has been in state government for decades. No one has even heard of this Adams guy and I doubt he has any real knowledge of state government.
