Meehan is out

and everyone else seems to be in....
I'm a little shocked that Marty took the Umass Lowell Chancellorship, but I'm told he has small kids at home and the financial rewards of the new sinecure can't be denied.
That having been said a vertiable battalion of hopefuls have piled in already headed by Niki Tsongas, widow of the late senator and presidential candidate. Rumors are still churning even as I write this of new and even more improbable candidacies.
Meanwhile the GOP could well offer up a credible candidate they seem to have a interesting collection warming up in the bullpen.
Well...never let it be said, that Massachusetts doesn't offer up consistent political theater on a grand scale.
At anyrate, this race will no doubt be the making of Lynn of "Left in Lowell" fame whose commentary on local and district politics are of a insightful and sensible type.
