14. You are right on the money
Edited on Fri Feb-08-08 06:57 PM by rox63
Using Massachusetts politics as a model for the country is just plain nuts. :crazy:

Politics is a blood sport here - A lot of politicians have ended up regretting the day they ever ran for office in this state. Deval Patrick's learning curve has been steep. But I think he's doing ok, considering the entrenched interests in the legislature. He got a lot of votes from citizens (including me) who were just plain sick and tired of business as usual. But the others who have been wielding power here for so long will not give in easily.
