Does Healey REALLY want to run against Patrick?

September 14, 2006 By David

I doubt it.Conventional wisdom: Gabs has more money and is trying to play to the center (pushing the immigration issue, and sorta kinda favoring a tax rollback, maybe).  Also, recent polling shows all three Dem candidates beating … [Read more...]

Healey airs Gabrieli attack ad

September 14, 2006 By Alex W.

WOW! Did anyone else just see that attack ad on channel 5 just now? It accuses Gabrieli wanting to state to invest in stem cell research so that his companies will make money. It ended saying, if you support stem cell research but not … [Read more...]

Predictions for tonight’s debate!

September 13, 2006 By Charley on the MTA

I won't be able to watch it live, so here are my predictions for tonight's debate:Chastened by the poor reviews of his behavior in last week's debate, Tom Reilly wears a cardigan sweater, and ignores the first question in order to praise … [Read more...]

Gabrieli’s Projection

September 13, 2006 By theopensociety

Chris Gabrieli engaged in a bit of projection yesterday when he claimed that Deval Patrick is “out of the mainstream” or out of touch with the voters. It is actually Gabrieli who is out of touch with the voter, and Gabrieli’s decision to … [Read more...]

Leaving a sinking ship

September 12, 2006 By Charley on the MTA

Wow! Patrick WAY up in new poll

September 12, 2006 By David

Gabbers Loves His Little Dreidel!

September 12, 2006 By maverickdem

My take: Gabbers realizes that he can't make up the ground that he needs with Reilly voters, so he is unveiling a two-prong strategy: dismiss one candidate, hope the public buys it, and focus most of your energy on undermining the substance … [Read more...]

The #HousingCrisis & the #ClimateCrisis must be addressed together. We can no longer let our communities, particularly black & brown communities, be displaced by speculative investors buying up properties & jacking up rent.

Morning, Mass. ☀️ Engagement is down across the #mapoli & #bospoli hashtags, new @LegislataApp data show. Is Twitter still useful for pols/activists? We asked @JonathanCohn & Boston Mayor @wutrain. Plus:

We could improve our solar + farming (agrivoltaics) program and IX situation :) so we can actually get MWs in the ground while keeping farmers farming for another generation. #mapoli 1000MW+ of solar in the SMART program stalled in MA.

The Boston Globe @BostonGlobe

An alarming new report on climate change raises a difficult question for Massachusetts, already ahead of most states on climate policy. Is it even possible to move faster? https://trib.al/qHy7zwc

“What if I told you… this wasn’t a question of how liberal we are? 🙄 Or that what happens to literally five one-hundred-thousandths of a percent of the Earth’s surface area…. won’t matter for the planet’s mean surface temperature at all? #mapoli

Sabrina Shankman @shankman

On Monday, UN Sec-Gen. @antonioguterres said that in response to the dire IPCC report, developed nations should aim for net-zero by 2040. That's 10 years before MA's goal, so we asked the question: In liberal MA, is it even possible to move faster?
