Sounds like Cahill is in for 2010....

His ethics probe has been closed sans comment.
Of course the State Treasurer still has to survive a federal suit from a Rhode Island gambling concern and an ongoing investigation by the Commonwealth's Secretary of State Bill Galvin.
But other than that, seems like Cahill is in the clear....clear enough to file papers to run as a democrat or an independent or on a Regressive Partei ticket or some damn thing.
There are those who think that just possibly, Governor Patrick wants Tim Cahill to run, they think they can whip the state treasurer in a two way race. Moreover, Cahill might be egomaniacal enough to run as an independent, this will presumably drain votes from the presumptive GOP nominee (Crazy Christy Mihos or perhaps Charlie Baker the Hamlet of the Charles River Basin) and ensure Patrick's return to the corner office.
Well, it is all speculation at this point, the sharp elbows the governor may be throwing now aren't necessarily indicative that he wants to keep Cahill off the stump.
