Brown aint no "independent." In 2010 he kept saying they should "elect 1 Republican".

[RBInMaine]

He's such a PHONY ASSHOLE. Why in hell would ANYONE there vote for this slimeball PHONY. Talk about a LIAR and FLIPFLOPPER.
Keeps saying he is "an independent." Well, the last time he ran, in the debates he said, "Shouldn't we elect a Republican?" Now he's running from his own ROTTEN party. He's such a PHONY SLIMEBALL.

1. +1

As someone 'there' I assure you, that's not where my vote will be cast.

Strange though, to see Massatwoshits as "there"

The bluest of blue states.

3. Pfft. If Patrick runs again, I don't think it will be close.

4. Patrick is term-limited I believe.

[geckosfeet]

6. Unless I am badly mistaken, Patrick is in his first term...

I am badly mistaken -

Patrick was re-elected in the 2010 gubernatorial election against Republican Charlie Baker and Independent Tim Cahill. His second term began on January 6, 2011 and in an interview with the Boston Globe, Patrick declared he will not seek re-election in 2014.

5. Are there term limits in Mass for Gov.

If Obama picks Sen Kerry for sec of state, he may have another shot at senate seat. I hope that Kerry is not picked, because Brown would probably win, he is popular and wouldn't have Obama coat tail effect against him.

7. no i was mistaken. no term limits. but he said he will not run again.

8. NPR was reporting that he said he was a defense against gridlock.

Yeah, RIGHT. It's worked so well up till now, hasn't it?
