1. He's gotta be better than Judd Gregg.

2. Yes and no
Good news is, he definitely has experience with commerce and trade, particularly with the Pacific Rim region. Bad news its the usual DLC "free trade" variety. Locke was a competent governor, but not a Liberal by any means. I'd say he's qualified for the position, but I hope he realizes the failures of the global corporatist "experiment".

3. So how is Gregg better than him?

Or do you mean they are the same in some ways?

4. Gregg might have been better, if the NH governor would have ignored him
and appointed a Democratic senator to take his place. Other than that.... New England Repuke vs DLC'er.... pretty much the same thing.
