NH, I know you’ve been hearing stories about me running around with other states this past week. I can explain everything, if you’ll just let me.

When a MA Republican like Scott Brown loves a little northern state very very much, so much so that he buys an expensive vacation home there and starts talking about having “9 generations” there, that doesn’t mean it’s time for the little northern state to start shopping for china patterns or picking out diamonds.

NH, much as I love and respect your folksy ways, we never said we wouldn’t see other people. Keeping our options open will only make our relationship better, when we end up together, if that’s what the future holds. I want only what’s best for you, NH, so even though my heart breaks just a little every time I hear about you and some other Senate candidate (Jeb Bradley?? What were you thinking?), I will be thinking of you all the time I am eating corn dogs in Iowa or chatting up voters in Minnesota or marveling at my name recognition in the Dakotas or keeping my options open for #MAGOV.

Because in my heart, NH, it’s about just you and me.
