If Phil Johnston wasn't trying to tempt Joe Kennedy into the 2006 Governor's race why was he giving the former congressman an award last night at the Annual Franklin & Eleanor Roosevelt Dinner?
If Joe Kennedy wasn't at least thinking about running, then why did he accept said award?
Is Phil trying to "thin out" the gubernatorial roster next year with a Kennedy candidacy...the proverbial 700 lb gorilla?
Everyone is up to something here, if Kennedy gets in then at least Phil has a candidate with immense fundraising potential, one who will squeeze the herd and at the very least keep Galvin out of the race.
On the other hand what does Kennedy want? A clear shot meaning no Romney in the race?
Joe can afford to bide his time, of the lot he can get in the latest and still sweep the primary.
The question is, does he want it?
Everything hinges on this.
All over the Commonwealth there are grenadier's uniforms lying in closets waiting only for the war drums from out Hyannisport to be dragged out in all their gaudy glory.
The uniforms wait, we wait, and Joe? He merely contemplates his giant computerized map of Massachusetts in gleeful silence-again.
