of all persuasions.
The Commonwealth of Massachusetts is allegedly facing a budget deficit whose estimate runs as a high as a billion big ones...whatever it is, it is a lot of moolah.
Yet even as I write this, Former Massachusetts Governor Willard Mitt Romney stumps the Granite State proclaiming himself to be a hairy chested he-man fiscal conservative.
That billion or so in red ink flows despite the Governor's line item veto and the tacit alliance Romney had with such notorious Beacon Hill conservatives as then House Speaker Tom Finnegan.
Now no doubt, Willard will blame the state legislature for any bad news emanating from Boston and vicinity, but that is an excuse...not an answer.
Anyway if those deficits are really all the legislature's fault, then that doesn't speak well for Mitt's leadership skills. However if Romney couldn't reign in the entirely provincial democrats of Massachusetts how will he fare against serious playas like Harry Reid and Ted Kennedy?
Think about that.
