New poll has Reilly running even with Patrick in primary and Healey in general election

February 16, 2006 By David

Yeah, yeah, it's early, polls don't mean anything at this point, blah blah blah.  Still, Tom Reilly can't be too psyched about the latest UMass-Lowell poll, which shows that his previously-solid leads over both Deval Patrick in the … [Read more...]

Why the Reilly/St. Fleur fiasco matters

Sure, it's early.  Sure, a lot of voters aren't really paying attention to the race yet, and sure, Tom Reilly has lots of time to recover, blah blah blah.But at the end of the day, this race isn't about who runs the slickest campaign, … [Read more...]
