Governor Deval Patrick has scheduled a picnic fund-raiser this month at his vacation estate in the Berkshires, where he will once again exploit a method he pioneered for skirting state campaign contribution limits, a funding system the Legislature so far has declined to shut down.

In MA,the Legislature is never truely out of session until it “perogues”. Which they never do.

Good luck! :)
DEVILLE doing something sleezy? Oh, I’m SHOCKED, SHOCKED I tell ya!
Miracles can happen here, ya know.
