Boston Globe is a liberal rag. They want the beatable candidate to win.
Boston Herald is a paper that is mostly objective ... slightly conservative. They simply don't like Mitt... for good reason.
Mitt was ineffective in his job as governor here in MA. In addition to that, Mitt worked ONLY 100 days during his last year as governor. Then, he proceeded to kick the conservative candidate, Kerry Healy, to the curb when she ran against Deval Patrick in 2006. Kerry was by far the most qualified candidate. In fact, Deval Patrick, governor, after his win, adopted much of Kerry's platform.
Below are a few other articles written by Joan Venocchi. She’s obviously a liberal with an ax to grind. Why anyone at FR would use an article written by a liberal is beyond me.
