duly noted with some incredulity Scot LeHigh's big ole mark out moment on behalf of potential GOP gubernatorial candidate Charlie Baker.
I gotta say though, this is par for the course for Scot Lehigh, he is a confirmed and unapologetic apologist for so called "moderate" republicans, especially if they running for Governor of Massachusetts.
Frankly though, Scot's "apologism" has taken on the aspects of a delusion, if there is no moderate republican in the race, he will simply pretend that GOP nominee is a nice safe middle of the road candidate who loves puppies and ice cream sodas at Pop's Choc'lit Shoppe.
Deep deep down, Scot's idea of a utopia posits a moderate GOP Governor whose simple wisdom guides this Commonwealth whilst a fractious legislature of cavorting democratic nibelungs provides him and the Globe's editorial page with endless pundit fodder.
It doesn't matter if said moderate GOP Man-on-Horse is in fact leading the state in circles (as was Romney) or if the nominee is a manifestly incompetent demagogue (Scary Kerry Healey)....Scot will just go on believing all the harder.
Moreover this is what Brian McGrory and to a lesser extent Joanie Vennochi believe as well, taken all three together and you get a far different view of the Globe's op-ed page than it's supposed liberal progressive label.
