From time to time, even Massachusetts gets tired of Democrats. That's how Weld got elected governor, although he proved a major disappointment in office. Romney should play the old "throw the bums out" and "time for new blood in office" as hard as he can.

Grossman's campaign pitch sounds similar to Romney's: a businessman ready to bring strong corporate management to the governor's office, minus the Olympic success.

Isn't it funny that a party which denigrates corporations as exploiters has to bring in a "corporate manager" to run. hehehe.

''Romney is a right-wing conservative Republican who tried to destroy Ted Kennedy eight years ago,''

Wondering how the people in Massachusetts feel about Romney?

''Romney is a right-wing conservative Republican who tried to destroy Ted Kennedy eight years ago,'' said Philip W. Johnston, the state Democratic chairman. ''Nobody's engaged him yet on issues. We will remind people where he stands.''

That is the best way to elect him. Go dems!

"Romney is a right-wing conservative Republican who tried to destroy Ted Kennedy eight years ago..."

Pretty good credentials, if you ask me...
