Thanks
we'll ferret it out....:D
Brother, can you spare an endorsement? This morning's Boston Globe featured the story of a guy named Cameron. Cam is a Boston attorney whose closest brush with politics was when he was helping a guy run for Congress back in 1972. Cam and another guy were arrested breaking into their guy's opponent's office. The charges were dropped a year later, but apparently it left a bad taste in Cam's mouth for politics.
But 33 years is a long time, and now Cam wants to get back into politics. He's starting off slow, though -- he's considering a run for Secretary of State in Massachusetts.
He's already lining up support from his old candidate buddy back from '72. He figures he's got a lock on the endorsement for two reasons: 1) the guy he took the rap for is now Massachusetts' Junior Senator and 2004 Democratic nominee John Kerry, and 2) He's Kerry's younger brother.
Perennial Boston gadfly Howie Carr has a picture of the newspaper announcing Kerry's arrest up on his home page. It's definitely worth a couple of giggles.
I guess some things just do breed true. And more's the pity.
more re B and E Kerry:
'An interesting note: under the Secretary of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts is, among other things, the Elections Division.
Makes one wonder if the left's pollsters are beginning to get itchy about future election results, and the democrats are looking around for someone who can help when the time comes.'
Keep digging--it's in there somewhere! :-)
Thanks for the other stuff.
Still waiting......
election yr bump
Thanks a blast from the past.
