Predictably, Joan Vennochi & Eileen McNamara have come down hard on AG Tom Reilly for making a phone call on behalf of some bereaved parents. All he asked was that the local DA not release the autopsy report to the press out of respect for the bereft.
Well, to hear Joanie and Eileen tell it, you'd think that Tom had just worked over Nancy Reagan with the business end of a shovel.
Mind, you this wasn't a smart thing for Reilly to do, especially in a governor's race that is supposed to highlight his law and order props....but its not like he held up a liquor store or anything. It is rather, the sort of lapse the vengeful geeks on the Boston Globe's editorial page eill try to build up into a catastrophic character flaw. One So Terrible that it will "force" them to reconsider Christy Mihos or Achille Starace or whoever.
Which only underscores the vital necessity for any sensible gubernatorial minded democrat to avoid listening to Joanie, Scot, Brian and Eileen at all costs.
In the words of the late William S. Burroughs, They have nothing to offer but their bad intentions.
