Mihos is in as an Independent...

or so claims Boston.com.

The value of the GOP nomination for Governor just dropped a good thirty percent. It would seem that Kerry Healey has failed the first test of politics, keeping a clear field all the way to the goal post. She hasn't been able to keep Boss Mihos from bolting the ruins of the State GOP and now naught but havoc will be the result.

A lot of democrats are no doubt rejoicing about this, I'd advise them to think twice and start updating their lists of ones and twos.

Mihos is an arrogant misogynistic bastard and a bit of a flake, but he understands too well the power of money welded to a promise of "protection" from the allegedly rampant state legislature. He need only 34% of the vote to win if things break his way.

on the other hand, if the race does come down to a test of turnout, there the democrats have an advantage...precinct captains, lists, willing foot soldiers etc. So lets not take this a gift, Mihos could mean big trouble for us in every way.
