October 25, 2010 By David

Today's Globe reports that MA's two most hotly-contested congressional races are looking good for the Democrats (the full poll is here).  In the 10th District, Bill Keating leads Jeff Perry by 4 points, 37-33.  A remarkably high … [Read more...]

Cape Cod Times endorses Bill Keating for Congress

October 23, 2010 By janalfi

I'm not sure that I agree with their "bi-partisanship" criteria or their comparison of Keating to Scott Brown.  Lord, I hope not. Perhaps Keating's most important characteristic is the promise that he will be an independent voice in … [Read more...]

Red Wall of Silence showing cracks: Mihos says Perry should quit; other GOPers are criticizing him

October 22, 2010 By David

I'd say the Red Wall of Silence around Jeff Perry and his strip search problem is still basically holding.  But it's definitely showing some cracks.  A few Republicans are speaking out, some elected, some not.  Christy Mihos, … [Read more...]

Want to keep Jeff Perry away from DC? Here’s your chance!

October 22, 2010 By David

Jeff Perry, as we've been discussing the past few days, is clearly not fit to serve in the U.S. Congress.  Fortunately, the local OFA crew is on the case, and they have organized two major canvassing events in the 10th district this … [Read more...]

In his own words: Perry’s hypocrisy personified

October 21, 2010 By grassroots1

and another: There is absolutely a double standard when it comes to personal and ethical scandals and how the media reports them.  Democrats are often given a pass or promptly forgiven (need I mentioned [sic] Bill Clinton?) while … [Read more...]

The Red Wall of Silence is holding … so far. Will any GOPers break ranks with Perry?

October 20, 2010 By David

Here's Senator Brown's radio ad: Brown: This is United States Senator Scott Brown with a message for the people of the 10th Congressional District.  You have another chance to shake up the status quo in Washington on Tuesday, November … [Read more...]

Ask every Republican you know about Jeff Perry

October 20, 2010 By David

As far as I am concerned, the new revelations about Jeff Perry render him plainly unfit for any office, to say nothing of the U.S. Congress. So I wonder what Republicans think.  Of course they want to pick up seats - everyone wants to … [Read more...]

WGBH/MassINC poll shows dead heat in MA-10

October 18, 2010 By David

Finally, an independent poll of the 10th congressional district!  And it shows what a lot of people probably thought was the case: the race is a dead heat, and way too close to call.  Email (no link yet) - update: link here: With … [Read more...]

Why you should vote for Rob O’Leary for Congress

September 13, 2010 By rob-oleary

3. His message is simple and compelling: End the war, invest at home. Improve our schools, protect the environment. 4. You'll be in good company. Yesterday's Globe reported that Congressman Delahunt will be voting O'Leary on Tuesday. He … [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?
