How long does Deval Patrick have to run for president before he wins the bet?
I mean, surely this is some kind of gag, a practical joke of sorts — it’s too late for trick-or-treat so April Fool’s Day must have come early.
Deval Patrick will be the fourth candidate from Massachusetts to announce for president this cycle — after the fake Indian, Bill Weld and Seth Moulton.
Who’s next? Stanley Rosenberg? Bryon Hefner? Felon Finneran? Sal DiMasi? 00:08 / 00:15 SKIP AD
Why not recycle some Massachusetts losers of yesteryear — Mike Dukakis, John Kerry, Willard M. Romney.
Like so many politicians, Small Deval has always been a legend in his mind. But how delusional does he have to be to see himself as a contender … not to mention, how weak is the Democrat field for even someone as below-average as Deval to decide that not only does he need a job, but that the job needs him?
Granted, the Democrat field is pathetically weak. And the candidates in Deval’s “lane,” i.e., black, are on the ropes. In the latest Quinnipiac poll of New Hampshire this week, Sens. Kamala Harris and Cory Booker each have a whopping 1 percent support.
They’re both pitiful candidates, but who seriously believes Deval is any improvement over either of them?
Let’s take a brief stroll down Memory Lane, considering some of Deval’s Greatest Hits.
First, the women in his administration: Bev Scott, Sherri Killins, Olga Roche, Andrea Cabral, Mary Beth Heffernan. They all pretty much run to type, don’t they? Incompetent.
Then, the men: Tim “Crash” Murray, Ron Bell, Carl Stanley McGee. They kinda run to type too. Dodgy, very dodgy, like his rapist brother-in-law, Bernard Singh.
What were Deval’s signature issues? Rampant welfare fraud, Evergreen Solar, proposed rail boondoggles. His administration was so incompetent that he once nominated a lawyer for a judgeship, only to discover that there were two candidates with the same name, and his crack crew couldn’t tell them apart.
So now there’s a court in Massachusetts with two judges who have the same name. That’s Deval for ya.
He went to Harvard, then Harvard Law School, but still flunked the bar exam the first time he took it. And then the second. I ask you, how many Harvard Law grads need three tries to pass the bar exam?
Of course, his inability to pass the bar did allow Deval to bond with his lieutenant governor, Crash Murray, who likewise needed three tries to get his ticket – to practice law, not a speeding ticket, for going 108 mph in a 65 zone, as he did in 2011 when he smashed pre-dawn into a wall off I-190 while wearing footie pajamas.
As governor, Deval went to one 9/11 anniversary ceremony and described the Muslim terror attack as “a failure of human beings to communicate,” an early version of Ilhan Omar saying “Some people did something.” (Too bad she’s endorsed Bernie!)
When the Tsarnaev brothers, two Muslim terrorists from the old USSR, showed their gratitude for 10 years of welfare by blowing up the 2013 Boston Marathon, Deval lovingly described them as “young fellas.”
Deval is the second Democrat to belatedly jump into the fight this week, after former New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg. Bloomberg is worth $53 billion, and will spend whatever it takes. As the New York Post reported, he won his third term as mayor in 2009 with 51 percent of the vote after spending $102 million on his campaign — which worked out to $174 per vote.
Before he got into politics, Deval worked briefly — very, very briefly — for both Coke and Texaco, and then left under murky circumstances which have never been adequately explained. I’ve always wondered about those departures, but a cloud of omerta hangs over them — like Obama’s SAT and LSAT scores, not to mention the fake Indian’s employment applications at Harvard and UPenn.
Sadly, we’ll never confirm our suspicions on those two poseurs, but if somehow Deval catches fire and presents a threat to Mayor Mike (unlikely scenarios, both) Bloomberg’s operatives will have more than enough cash to pry those Deval NDA’s out of wherever they’re stashed.
For that reason alone, I say, Run Deval run.
Some of the Dem goofballs have left the race and the party needs some idiot replacements. The goofier, the better, I say!
1. The Democrats know that Joe Biden's campaign to be the Third Black President is going down in flames.
2. They are conducting polls among their supporters and see ominous signs of a massive flight of black voters to Trump in 2020.
3. Hence, they need a "clean, articulate" black candidate who isn't named Cory Booker.
Who dat?
Here, uber-liberal Deval (then-Mass Gov) sap-happily applauds his new police chief---
wearing her spiffy Commandant Herman Gohering uniform (not photoshopped).
Anybody know how to say versimilitude in German?
Herman Goering.
That Patrick, he’s such a little devil
Well he is blind, so he has an excuse.
It’s a quick way to make more money faster than Go Fund Me and it can easily be “washed” and “laundered”.
With Tom STeyer, Deval Patrick and Mike Bloomberg entering the race so late in the game, all it is really saying, is that even democrats know they have no viable candidate in the race so far, so the field is still wide open.
Let’s see the last 30+ years. Kerry. Dukakis. Romney. America just loves Massachusetts politicians when they are chosen as their party’s nominee for president.
So now, Little D. will be running too?
Most people never heard of him.
Even the odious Julian Castro (Twin #1) is better known than Deval the Muslim.
Who is Seth Moulton?!
The Democrats have a choice between a Massachusetts socialist or a Massachusetts socialist ... ‘George McGovern, please pick up the white courtesy phone, Richard Nixon is on the other line’ ....
Congressman from the North Shore. He didn't qualify for any of the major candidate debates, so he withdrew.
What a joke.
Indeed.
Wrong governor, that was David Patterson in New York. He took over after Eliot Spitzer got caught as a client of a high-priced call girl organization. Then he was succeeded by Cuomo the Younger.
