Not just that, he’s waaayyyy to closely ties to the Bushes. Of course, if this were any of another 30 or so states, that just might help him. But not in MA.

I still say Curt or bust. And it looks like bust.

Tim Cahiil for Governor and Scott Brown for Treasurer? I’d vote for them.

Brown should probably run on the ticket with Cahill for Lt Gov.

Uh in Texas maybe...

Rasmussen did a poll about Curt Shilling.

---

Just 34% of Massachusetts voters say they’re even somewhat likely to vote for Schilling. Most (54%) say they’re not likely to do so. Those figures include only 16% who say they’re Very Likely to vote for the retired pitcher and 30% who are Not at All Likely to do so.

A Rasmussen poll shows Bay staters not exactly bullish on Schilling making a Senate run. http://www.rasmussenreports.com/public_content/politics/elections2/election_2010/election_2010_senate_elections/massachusetts/massachusetts_voters_not_ready_for_senator_schilling

I assume that Andy Card is socially liberal, but I get the feeling that he isn’t a Weld/Cellucci/Swift-type RINO (would he have survived that long as GW Bush’s Chief of Staff if he was?). The Bush connection won’t help him one bit in MA, but if he enters the race we’re pretty much stuck with him, since no other prominent Republican will be likely to run. And if Cellucci runs, we’d be crazy not to support Card over him in the primary.
