Jingle Money's Last Raid....

I had to laugh when I read in this morning's Globe that in 2002 the Great and General Court quietly indemnified outgoing Governor Jane "Jingle Money" Swift against a pending lawsuit from Boss Christy Mihos.
Never let it be said that the democrats in the state legislature can't pay ball with a sitting GOP governor, especially when the corner office is occupied by a spineless passive aggressive yutz with the decisiveness of a bed of seaweed.
Now of course the Finneran gang can't seem to recall just who put that rider into legislation concerning the Steamship Authority.
No doubt the House Leadership was moved by a weepy christian pity for the former Governor who'd only just rendered up twins.
That at least is their story up to the point of indictment at any rate.

Surely the House and Senate were just dyin' wit' sympathy for Jingle Money, after all she'd been ousted by the Kolobian Viceroy and faced a bleak post political letdown as a North Adams Hausfrau.
All sarcasm aside I don't know why the Finneran gang felt they needed to intervene, it was a legal dogfight between a rising Boss in the GOP and a discredited outgoing Governor....just sit back and watch the fur fly I say.
Clearly there was some advantage accruing to the usual suspects this time-but what?
