Balance of power can be razor thin. We need all the help we can get even if it is mostly lip service.
That would be true if the Repubs voted as Repubs. They don’t do that. There is no balance of power. There is GOP voting for lib causes most of the time. See Immigration for what happens when we elect unprincipled RINOs.
Can there be a better example of why electing more of them is simply cutting our own throats?
a review of Holyoke, 41% Latino
Scott Brown 3,771 (44%) Martha 4,869
Gomez 1,849 (38%) Markey 2,942 (61%)
2013 Holyoke turnout was 55% of 2010 turnout. Statewide I think was more like 65% of 2010.
So the LATINO strategy is brilliant, eh?
