I wonder what the narrative is gonna be?
"Lieutenant Governor on Horseback crusades to save the Commonwealth from a rampant State Legislature dominated by queers and pinkos" or "Crooked shyster tries to buy Governorship for his inept ne'er do well wife".
Which one will prevail?
Meanwhile, "Kerry Healey: Out of Touch" is running down a few notional running mates for the Lt. Governor.
Humble Elias is idly curious though, is this the same Scott Brown whose daughter is on "American Idol"?
If so, then count on him being selected, it is just the sort of groveling mealy-mouthed opportunism that Kerry Healey can never ever resist.
Meanwhile Boss Christy Mihos is still making noises about an independent run for Governor. With Kerry Healey still polling well behind Tom Reilly, a Mihos candidacy could well spell ruin for the Lieutenant Governor. Hell, Mihos can win with as little as 32 to 33% of the vote if he plays his cards right.
Exactly what the issues will be between them is questionable, both Healey and Mihos, are alleged to be "moderate" republicans, in other words they are good for precisely nothing but in a way appealing to most Boston Globe columnists.
One of them will have to break to the right IF it comes down to a GOP primary fight, but if Mihos forms a third partei ("The Old Milk Party" perhaps?) the ideological divide between them will become relentlessly clouded - count on it.
As democrats under these circumstances, our first job is maintaining and enhancing party unity.
So keep that in mind willya?
