Lehigh at the Cross Roads...

Poor Scott he can't figure who to venerate as the new GOP Pseudo moderate on Horseback...Kerry Healey or Boss Christy Mihos?
Oh how he tried to pump up Kerry Healey today into a familiar comforting fiscal conservative socially tolerate whozis. Lehigh even invoked the sacred image of Bill Weld, a vertiable Saint among the Hub's Punditariat.
Alas though, Scott is still left with...Kerry "Lieutenant Governor Barbie" Healey at the end of the Day. A woman who hasn't said a single sensible thing since the winter of 2002 and who is merely waiting for her shyster hubbie to buy her the Corner Office outright.
Pretty slim pickin's even for a famously self deluded columnist like Scott.
And then there is Christy "Old Milk" Mihos, clearly this potential candidacy both thrills and frightens Lehigh. On the one hand Scott loves his simple businessman routine, lotsa good columnist cred there. However if Mihos runs on a third Partei ticket he could split the vote so fine that the Democrats Could Seize Power Once Again!
"Can't have that!" thinks Scott "The legislature will run amok, flying monkeys will dine on our pets, Sushi will cost a BUNDLE!!"

Okay all kidding aside, one of the things to watch this year is which way McGrory, Lehigh, McNamara and Vennochi all jump when it comes time to pick a candidate.
They will back any reasonable fraud as long as said candidate promises them the eternal void of "responsible republican moderation".
If Kerry Healey is still polling fifteen points behind the dems, watch them try to scramble aboard Mihos' skiff, third party or no third party.
They may not have a candidate yet, but they know what they don't want and that is us, the democrats winning this fall....the status quote is good enough for them.

Sick
Demented
Typical
