"LIZ DON'T INHALE!!"
The Boston Globe must feel Biden's inauguration is a sure thing come January, because they ran their usual speculative piece on which local democrats are gonna go to work for the incoming democratic admin. They did it for Clinton, Obama and now Biden, you can set your watch to it, IF the democrats happen to win a presidential election.
And as usual they've picked out a heroic sinecure for our redoubtable Senior Senator, Elizabeth Warren, Secretary of the Treasury, among other beguiling portfolios. All I can advise is, Liz don't do it!! If you grab off a plum job with the admin, that means Charlie Baker appoints your temporary successor and we then have to fight a Special Senate Election, you will recall, we lost in 2010 catapulting your onetime rival Scott Brown to the US Senate.
I'll be blunt, I don't wanna fight that election, we botched it once, and it could get botched again, easily. Chuck Schumer can't be sanguine about the idea of even a temporary GOP US Senator MA, even with all his own prospects riding on two Senatorial Run Offs, In Georgia...
If Schumer is smart he's already asked that Biden not upset the senatorial equilibrium in any way, that doesn't favor the democrats...
Anyway, my message today is, "Liz Don't Listen", the people blowing smoke in your face here all wanna sell newspapers, get themselves a soft touch in DC, burnish their credentials or boost their ratings. They don't give a rat's ass about the great challenges of our times, challenges best met by Elizabeth Warren fighting it out in the US Senate!
