The name Oganowski sounds familiar, I heard it within the last few days.
Tsongas I’ve heard of because of her husband.
A pubbie getting elected in MA, in Meehan’s district? And they are calling a ten point lead “close”, like the media wants pubbies to throw money at the race perhaps to drain the coffers for ‘08.

The most obvious example is the distasteful treatment of Jim Ogonowski by the Democratic machine. Ogonowski’s brother John was a pilot on American Flight 11, and every year since John’s death, Jim has spoken at the 9/11 ceremony on Beacon Hill.
Until this year.
This year, Ogonowski is a Republican candidate for Congress. And, completely coincidentally, he has been replaced as a speaker by, coincidentally, the Democrat he’s trying to replace, Marty Meehan. Meehan’s wife, by sheer coincidence, is chairing Democrat Niki Tsongas’ campaign against Ogonowski. After the Boston Herald broke the story, Ms. Tsongas then announced that she certainly hopes he would be part of today’s program.
