Today, LeftAhead had Governor Patrick on as our guest. Mike, Lynne and I had 30 minutes of Q&A time with him, and then we spent another 30 minutes talking about the 2010 election, while the Governor went off to visit one of his administration’s Growth District sites.
Mike had a great write-up of the show on LeftAhead, in which I think he sums it up nicely:
He told us what to expect in jobs-creation drives, why and how we are closer to CORI reform than ever, why he admires Scott Brown (hating the Senate special-election outcome but respecting the effort and involvement of the campaign Brown ran), and what it means when he and the legislature have at each other. In the latter case, he first says that after the criticism and complaints, the legislature “does what I ask them to do.” His words to people like me are not to read too much into that. We should, he says, accept there will be differences and just look to the legislation or other result.
The Governor was his usual eloquent self, but he also hit on some new themes and issues which I hope will feature prominently in the upcoming election.
People can listen in or download the show at LeftAhead.com, itunes, or by using the BlogTalkRadio media player below.
