Robert Reich's Bid For Mass. Governor May Fold Today

I just love it when I get good news! It couldn't happen to NICER SHORTER guy! :o)

[jalisco555]

Wow, that didn't take long at all.

Can anyone here who is savvy about MA politics handicap the race? How likely is it that Swift will keep her job?

[GeronL]

what no primary election for the Democrat Party??

[curmudgeonII]

Wee Bobby too left-wing even for the state of Mass.?
My goodness!

[cayman99]

What happened,,,did it fall short????

[Lessismore]

Too little, too late.

[VRWC For Truth]

Great news!

Maybe he could move to Florida and take over from Reno. Or maybe she could hire him to stabilize her when she is erect. You'd hardly see the little fella, standing there, pushing with all his might...

[Reaganwuzthebest]

What's the difference? Reich, O'Brien, Birminghan they're all clones of each other. Tax and spend and take from the productive to give to the non-productive. Who cares who gets the nomination? Hopefully none of them will win the general election.

...RENO fall down and go BOING =

...REICH fall down and go BOING...?

[Starrgaizr]

Aw shucks, that's too darn bad. But this means the insufferable Reich will be back offering his opinions to the whole country on NPR. Then again, I could turn it off...

One ex-Clintonite down..Bowles and Reno to follow!! -- Robert Reich's Bid For Mass. Governor May Fold Today

Was his the shortest-ever run for political office?

[Moosilauke]

He was never in the race. Aside from Howie Carr jokes about his stature, I'm not sure I've heard any discussion of Reich's "candidacy" in the local media over the last several months. He thought his connection to Clinton's coattails meant something but it didn't impress the state democrat machine. They weren't about to give him their place in line.

Contrary to what out of state FReepers may think, this doesn't represent a repudiation of Clinton, or even anything that conservatives should take comfort in. IMHO he's being scratched before getting in the starting gate mainly because he's not one of them, not because he's too liberal or too associated with the Clinton family.

That is too bad, because Reich is the only honset liberal I have seen in a while.
