Reality-based commentary on politics.

Most of Patrick/Murray senior staff coming to the BMG Unity Party!

By

As we’ve been advertising for a while now, John Walsh, Deval Patrick’s campaign manager, is one of the special guests attending Monday night’s Unity Party at Jimmy Tingle’s in Somerville.  Full details are here on where, when, tickets, etc.

We just got some more good news from John:

OK if I bring a few friends?

The BMG Unity Party is sparking an interest in my colleagues here at the Patrick/Murray campaign.  I’m happy to to tell you that so far Nancy O’Connor Stolberg, our Field Director, Doug Rubin our Senior Consultant, Charles SteelFisher, our New Media Director and Tracey Lewis, the Campaign Manager for Victory ’06 have agreed to join me at this historic celebration.  [Scott Ferson, Tim Murray’s spokesman, will also be there. –ed.]

UPDATE (by David): John reports below that Marty Walsh, Ted Kennedy’s campaign manager, will be joining us as well!

I’ve invited all of our combined (Patrick/Murray/Kennedy/V’06) staff to join and I’ll let you know later how many of them are planning to come.

We are also planning to unveil something really exciting at the event.  More news on that later.

See you at Jimmy Tingle’s!

Still on the fence about whether you can make it tomorrow night?  Come on – this should be enough to get you there!  The free dinners are gone, but it’s still a great deal: $10 to get in, $10 for outstanding BBQ from Redbones, and a whole lot of really interesting conversation with the people who are changing politics in this state.

  2. Because I have a department meeting scheduled for 5 tonight, I know I definitely won’t make it back to my living room for the debate.  Anyone know of anyplace in the city showing this thing on TV?

    • and probably will simply watch from the bikes at my gym, but places I have watched debates in the past have included 21st ammendment and the Harp. If anyone can confirm a place by about 4PM today, I will try to join you before heading to Somerville.

  3. While flipping channels last night I landed on Fox 25’s news at 10 for a moment when there were talking about the heated exchange between President Clinton and Fox New anchor Chris Wallace. Of unfortunate note, they mentioned Wallace would be tonight’s debate moderator. I expect him to take out some of his hurt feelings from the beating he took from Bill on Deval. Lets hope Grace and Christy go tag team on Healey instead of jumping on Deval. Otherwise this could be a very long night. :/

      • I can’t believe he’s Mike Wallace’s son. He is one sorry excuse for a journalist. Olbermann called Wallace “a monkey posing as a newscaster” tonight on Countdown. His rant was righteous!

  4. It’s not a unity party, least in my book, without people from the losing campaigns. So, who’s coming from the Reilly and Gabrieli camps?

  7. Did Jimmy Tingle get the TVs there fixed?  I was very frustrated at the last event that I went there, in part, to watch the debate on TV and the TVs were broken.

  8. Chair my DTC meeting and then haul ass to Suh-mah-ville.

    I’m excited about meeting everyone  :::bounce-bounce::: <–see!

    This unity stuff is good fun. đŸ™‚

  9. Welcome Marty Walsh (no relation unfortunately) the campaign manager for Ted Kennedy, the greatest US Senator in the history of the United States!  Marty is a big BMG fan and will be a key component of this effort to bring the Governor’s seat back into the Democratic column.

  10. Spent the day trying to fashion a way to sling my 180-count, funereal-grey-with-white-roses box of Kleenex over my shoulder like a jaunty pocketbook while out and about in the corridors of academia, but, alas, no luck.  I opted instead to tape a white tissue to my sweater above my left breast as an homage to Hester, my own free-form White Letter I for Infectious.  Now I sulk.

    Give my ticket to some lucky individual who appears, at least, to be free of contaminants, viruses, or incipient signs of the plague.  Aaach.
