My prediction is that it will be Deval Patrick. And if runs against a GOPe pick, he will win.
Deval is in with the Chi-town marxists. He's one of the beige bolsheviks that David Axelrod specializes in. Axelrod ran his campaign for gov in MA as a trial run for the process that gave us Obama. Be 'culturally enriched', speak in a non-threatening manner, say nothing of substance, then go all Leninist on the rubes after the polls close.
That's what some are saying.But as one who's seen him...up close and personal...I guarantee he's got more baggage than a United 747.But then,he's "of color"...so the baggage will be lost in transit.
