Of course, we all knew he was a Boston Democrat, but it took 13 paragraphs to glean his party affiliation from this Glob article.
The fact that the Globe is even reporting on it is amazing.
After November it might be a mystery but for now you can take it for granted that he’s a Dem. All 10 US Reps for MA are
Dems. Until last January, both Senators were (and I know,
some will call Brown a RINO but in MA we have to take what we can get and would Coakley be better?) The majority of
state/fed legislators are Dems and when it comes to Name That Party—
oh wait, it would be easier to name the pols who are NOT
Dems.
Scott Brown US Senator
Frank Cousins Essex County Sheriff
maybe 4 or 5 of out 40 State Senators
maybe 10 or 15 of out 160 State Reps
However some GOP candidates have a chance (theoretically)
in Nov (hey Tierney: “today is not about me”, eh? Right.
Nov 2 WILL be about you)
1st—don’t know how much chance he has, Bill Gunn v Olver
4th—Sean Bielat vs B. Frank
5th—Jon Golnik vs. Tsongas’ widow
6th—Hudak v. Tierney
10th—OPEN SEAT, Delahunt retiring: Perry v. Keating
