Tea Party Divides Rochester, NH, Republicans

Nette Fiorini is an independent voter. She is a teacher, but she dreams of opening her own business. And Fiorini sees the Tea Party as an extremist group.

“I think they’re radical,” Fiorini said. “I think they’re a little over the top. They really present as angry.”

If the Tea Partiers are angry, then Jerry DeLemus  is one of the head angry guys in Rochester. Every month, at the Salmon Falls Church, he leads the meeting of the Rochester 9/12 Project, a political group.

Fiorini wants to see the government play a more active role in getting the economy going again and she went to a Mitt Romney campaign event in Rochester in July to talk to the candidate about the economic devastation she has seen in Rochester.

“I’m a lowly teacher in the Rochester School Department,” Fiorini told Romney. “I’m very proud to be, but I also have a very big entrepreneurial spirit. I’m afraid to death. One out of every four of my friends are unemployed.”

Fiorini would one day like to open up a cafe for bikers, but she doesn’t dare take the risk of starting a business in this economic climate.

Rochester sits at the end of a line of three former mill towns along the Maine border. Portsmouth and Dover have found new prosperity, but Rochester, farthest along the road from the coast to the White Mountains, is still trying to find its way back. Nowhere is that clearer than downtown.

Walking past downtown businesses, Fiorini said she thinks that with the right person in the White House, Rochester can make a comeback.

“Initially, we had a lot of stores that just wouldn’t make it because they didn’t draw enough people in,” Fiorini said. “Now, I think the caliber of businesses that are moving in are more desirable. Upscale art shops, galleries — it seems to be a better crowd for drawing the kind of people that we want here in town.
