In the wake of over $1,000,000 in negative ads from the Republican Governor's Association Massachusetts Treasurer Tim Cahill has crashed in the Rasmussen poll released today. In the same poll released on April 7th showed Patrick 35%, Baker 27%, Cahill 23%. The net swing over the past 5 weeks has been Patrick +10%, Baker +4% and Cahill -9%. Tim Cahill has also dropped into 3rd place among unenrolled voters showing Baker 36%, Patrick 28%, Cahill 21%.

This three way race is going to keep Cadillac Deval in power.

The Ma. GOP has no one to blame but themselves.....

Wow. Cannot believe Patrick has that much support. People are stoopid!!! lol
Even though Massachusetts is a totally Kool Aid drinking state, the ballooning deficits, both state and federal, should give Massachusetts voters sober pause before they re-e;ect Patrick. However, if they do, the state will join many others such as California, Illinois, Michigan and New York that are experiencing huge budget shortfalls and rampant unemployment. These things will continue and worsen just the way they are in Greece and all throughout Europe.
When the GOP nominates a creature like this, it needs to be slapped down.
The IMPORTANT thing in the elections in the coming year is for the MOST CONSERVATIVE candidate to be elected, REGARDLESS of party label.
Only THAT will send an appropriate message.
oh i dont know they could also blame opportunist Cahill. Only reason that guy is running as an Indie is because the Dem higher ups promised to destroy him in a primary. He sent out feelers to see if he could defeat Cahill and the party intervened. He therefore jumped ship
i heard him on McPhees show when he first started his run and said he was an Independent Democrat. Biggest difference between him and an R would be that he gets along better with Dems and has Dem values. Only lately has he adopted tea party slogans and is trying to ride that wave.
Depressing.
This election will decide whether or not Massachusetts becomes the next California. We’re on the edge, and apparently 45% of the populace is into bungee jumping without the bungee. Or are state workers.
Yeah, people ARE stupid but Massholes are really, REALLY stupid!!
What a totally disgusting situation. Cahill is a fraudulent opportunist, Baker is a mercantilist, rentseeking RINO (at best) and Patrick is a far-left, Axelrod controlled empty suit.
I believe I’ll vote Patrick to ensure the ‘rats get the blame for the inevitable California-style collapse that will occur regardless of which of these three pygmies gets in.

Then I’m moving to Texas.
Go Cahill !
So RGA spends a lot of money attacking Cahill, which pushes his voters back to Patrick.
Great job guys.
Good questions, Dio.
Baker is a limp wrist, typical RINO, nibbling a few paper shuffling reforms type.
The state already has a big spending, hack job finding, hooked up party.
The state GOP’s brand has been Yugo junk status since Governor Sargent.
Baker told the conservatives to screw last week. Tisei and Nassour did so a few years ago. The MA Republican Assembly stayed home from the convention. As Don Feder once told me. Let the faux Republican party in MA die and have the Conservatives pick up the pieces.
Yes - Go Cahill! Two more attack ads have been unleashed on him from the RGA. Way to keep your eye on the ball there guys.
Nassour is as much a Rat operative as Weld is, IMO. And maybe more stupid than he is.
“Restoring balance?” REALLY? 9:1 is balance? Putz...
Patrick may have gotten a bump from the water crisis (exposure on TV, etc.) but could indeed be taking votes
away from Cahill and pulling ahead even further. Just heard on
radio Cahill is saying the RGA campaign has inaccuracies
and false statements, taking things out of context
Second round of neg./attack ads
