Jay Gonzalez in Menotomy Part II...

I gotta say, Jay Gonzalez remains energetic, and is seemingly resolved to "go down swinging" come what may...

The candidate made a rousing campaign appearance at the Sons of Italy in (Romantic) Arlington flanked by Congressperson Katherine Clark and the Commonwealth's AG Maura Healey...so it was a peppery trio up at the podium to be sure.

And just on a side note, I will say congressperson Clark fairly exudes the heady perfume of senatorial ambition, at the moment our representation seems set in the US Senate but I'm not sure she'd hesitate for more than twelve hours if an opportunity presented itself.
For that fact, you can tell Maura Healey is just waiting out Charlie Baker to make her run for Governor, she has already worked up a good liberal populist pitch that she tried out Friday Night.
And yet, I could eat beans off her head, I can't believe she once played pro basketball, I got sacks of potatoes bigger than Maura Healey.
Health to all their endeavors, sez Humble Elias.
Meanwhile...
I'll go to my grave insisting Jay Gonzalez is the better man for the job of Governor of the Commonwealth. Lumpy touts a record of shallow "successes" and ducks almost all the bigger issues menacing our prosperity & liberties, Gonzalez at least understands there is a matrix out there of dire challenges, the quicker we address them the better our prospects will be in the years to come.

And besides, this republic is on a collision course with a Constitutional Crisis. It is likely unavoidable at this point, among the many things we will need when the final extremity is reached, is State Governors who love our rights and liberties more than they love their careers and their lives.

That ain't Charlie "Lumpy" Baker, believe me. The best we can hope for out of that guy in his second term is more chiseling on behalf of the charter school placebo at the expense of our Public Schools.
In all, a disheartening prospect.

So its with great fanfare that I wholeheartedly endorse the ticket of Jay Gonzalez and Quentin Palfrey for Governor and Lt Governor on Tuesday, I will be working hard for both of them on that day.
