thought he'd just had the usual "middle aged crazy" episode, but this is utter lunacy!



I can tell you that a lot of MA GOP will vote libertarian for the first time in their lives! Weld was actually well tolerated as a governor, here--and he will most assuredly take votes from "the Donald" in my state!

This is hilarious! Weld gives a decent speech--or at least, he used to.

The reason we in MA have greater tolerance for GOP governors is because they're weak. This is by design. The legislature (overwhelmingly D) runs roughshod over them and the only power they have is the veto, which can be--and sometimes is--overridden!
