Isn’t this the genius who publicly accused the republicans in congress of being responsible for the murderous actions in Orlando of a registered democrat?

He’ll be a perfect fit.

The last time there was a vacancy in Massachusetts, when Ted the Swimmer died, the Democrats changed the rules so that the Republican governor could not pick the temporary replacement.

Someone, please take him, and other senator too.

He’s youthful and he could appeal to female voters.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_G._Kirk#U.S._Senate

> In August 2009, Senator Ted Kennedy died, leaving a vacancy in the Massachusetts Senate delegation. Five years earlier in 2004, the Massachusetts General Court had withdrawn the authority of the governor to fill a U.S. Senate vacancy by appointment, to prevent the then-Governor Mitt Romney, a Republican, from appointing a fellow Republican to fill the remainder of Democrat John Kerry’s Senate term, if Kerry were to win the 2004 presidential election. The legislation was enacted over Romney’s veto.

The woman-killing drunken whale wanted *that* altered (maybe temporarily) to permit racist Deval Patrick to appoint a temporary (Demwit) replacement during Obamacare furore on the Hill, then move on to the special election.

By that time, if (god forbid) Hitlery’s still alive, she’ll be 77 years old and still throwing lamps and ashtrays at Slick (when he’s not on pedophile island with a bottle of Viagra).

Fauxahontas will either be a candidate, or she’ll be a has-been, I’m hoping for the latter.

I’d be surprised if half the Republican field in 2024 were not women — but Sarah’s the only one I’d vote for in the primaries, as it stands now and off the top of my head.

What Trump wins and makes her secretary of energy? :D

I see some people going to jail.....

I would say that is a dream, but it is so close.

You really think Killary picking Dances-With-Lies would tip the balance in her favor?

Murphy’s Law: What ever could go wrong with this nominee will go wrong!

Thanks for the clarification—I confused 2004 with 2009. I recall that after Scott Brown won the special election, Harry Reid delayed letting him vote for several weeks, so that the temporary senator (Democrat) could still vote, even though legally his status ended as soon as the special election was held.

Rapid political ascent? I had to click and follow a few posts to find out who Murphy IS. He may be a big name in CT, but beyond the northeast, he’s not a household name. Reflects the paper’s own regional self-centeredness.

Regardless who this goof is, can you imagine him having to answer directly to Queen Hillary?

Also, the headline made me think that Hillary was eyeballing Murphy Brown.

I did, now not so much. But if she does, Taxachusetts would be a good safe state to pick. That would pit the leftist lying dolts against Trump and maybe Sessions.
