This former Massachusetts Senator, considered a "native son" in NH, beat Bill Clinton here, thus ending the state's record of always picking the President in the primary. He published his views in an 80-page booklet available to all voters. After the campaign, he joined with NH's Senator Warren Rudman to form the non-partisan Concord Coalition, a group dedicated to ending the nation's budget deficit.
