So far Booker has landed the hardest hits I think

[Recursion]

But Murphy is doing a great job now too.

[kimsterdemster]

1. yes

he the best

[pnwmom]

2. I like him a lot. Too bad he's got a Rethug governor, since it reduces

his chance as a V.P. candidate.

[Recursion]

4. Yeah, same problem with Brown and Warren

That's why I think mayors are a better place to look right now

[pnwmom]

5. Except Reid has found a loophole in Massachusetts law that reportedly

has him comfortable with the idea of Warren as V.P. The governor would have to call a special election to fill her seat.

And there's a Kennedy who is a member of the House and won with more than 60% of the vote.


So I think Warren has a real shot at this.

[Recursion]

6. Oh right they put that in during Mittens' term

And then it bit us in the ass when Teddy actually died under Patrick.

[pnwmom]

7. But this time we would be controlling the timing -- the clock could start to run

the day after the November election. And we have a stronger candidate to run.

[Station to Station]

8. Yeah, but Martha Coakley.

It takes a very special type of candidate to lose two statewide elections in Massachusetts to very beatable Republican opponents, but if anyone can, Coakley can. If that seat were to be lost, it would almost certainly be because the state party had found a way to nominate her again.

[Recursion]

9. This is the same state party that kept Whitey Bulger's brother as state speaker?

Yeah... I'm not exactly ready to defer to them...

[eastwestdem]

3. Booker has always been a great speaker. nt
