Patrick, the nation's only black governor, who is considered a rising star in a new generation of African-American leaders, also called Clinton today to inform her of his decision. He has strong ties to her and former President Bill Clinton, in whose administration he held a top justice department post. Both Clintons lobbied him for his endorsement.

Bad career move. Her Heinoussness will not be pleased

A lot of very liberal MA residents have moved to NH to get away from the high taxes and foolish liberal culture which they put in place before they left MA.

People like that may still look to the MA Gov for some leadership on how they should cast their vote, even though they now reside in NH.

All I care to say is that I’d shun her too. I wish that she’d come to Central Texas, because I’d like to put my words into action. However, I live in one of the most conservative areas of Texas. She’s not likely to waste her time.

Blatant Idiots tend to feel safety in numbers, that’s why we have Massholes electing Governor Telletubbie. That’s why Governor Tinkie Winkie felt courageous enough to rebuff the Clinton’s. Without whose help, he’d still be hosing American Corporations (like Ameriquest) with his racist quest to champion twisted racist quotas.
He’s about to meet Hillary’s “lockbox”! Can’t wait !!!
This is great news for the Bay State, we are now officially guaranteed a one term Goveror!!!
Maybe the moron will meet the Ft. Marcy Park coalition!

Actually I’m somewhat surprised. Deval,I think,does not want to be governor for too long.He just pissed away any chance of a Cabinet appt.if She wins(ugh!).First chance he gets he’s out of here.He’s looking for a Senate seat IMHO.
