“我不清楚加文·纽森到底能提供什么来吸引人们加入，”前众议员安妮·库斯特对《政治》杂志说。
“I don't have a sense, with Gavin Newsom, as to what would attract people to get on board,” former Rep. Annie Kuster told POLITICO.
新罕布什尔曼彻斯特 — — 加文·纽森挨家挨户地进行宣传，凭借他在中期选举中将掀起“蓝色海啸”的承诺，赢得了大批民主党人的欢呼。
MANCHESTER, New Hampshire — Gavin Newsom packed town halls and drew cheers from swarms of Democrats with his promise of a “blue tsunami” in the midterms.
但就在周六他在这些早期初选州奔波时，新罕布什尔州一些最活跃的民主党人已经开始质疑，这位加州州长到底还能提供什么具体内容。
But as he raced across this early primary state on Saturday, some of New Hampshire’s most plugged-in Democrats were already questioning what more, exactly, the California governor has to offer.
库斯特一直是皮特·布蒂吉格的长期支持者，她形容纽森是“花哨的”，并谈到新罕布什尔州的选民时说：“他们不在寻找传统意义上的大政府、大州，‘哦，哇哦！这是州长。’他们不知道加州州长的经历如何能转化为对他们在新罕布什尔州生活的帮助[以及]他们关注生活成本高企，关注华盛顿的腐败。”
Kuster, a longtime Pete Buttigieg supporter, described Newsom as “flashy,” saying of New Hampshire voters, “They’re not looking for a traditional sort of big government, big state, ‘Oh, whoo-hoo! It’s the governor.’ They don’t know how being governor of California is going to translate into helping their life in New Hampshire [and] this focus on the high cost of living, the focus on the corruption in Washington.”
