Globe: In supporting Khazei, the Globe believes that this state’s future depends on new ideas.

Dukakis: It is his courage and his conviction on the important issues of the time that impress me most of all.

And for our capitol city? The same good-ol-boy: "Vote for Menino!" a couple weeks ago, and now it's "Vote for new ideas!"

Weeeell..

Menino *is* the first five term mayor of Boston...that's *technically* a new idea...

And one of the main reasons?

Supposedly that in trying times like these you need a seasoned hand on the tiller (they forgot to mention that the seasoned hand on the Boston tiller is the one that drove us into the storm in a dinghy).

If they were consistent -that means they should have endorsed Capuano. Will say - I'm glad it's not Coakley or Capuano - personally Khazei and Pags both seem better suited - although I think personally I'd prefer someone with some business savvy and experience given some of what the country faces.

Any polls out lately? Even though Coakley was leading - sounded like there were a lot of undecideds - if they tip for some of the other guys - could get interesting.

Savvy

Maybe if we're lucky someday we'll get a president who has an MBA.

Pfft

We tried that once; didn't work out so well.

He said he would run the country like a business.
He just didn't say that business was Enron.

Don't blame me

I voted for Kerry

Double don't blame me

I voted for McCain

Triple don't blame me

I voted for Muffy

Quadruple don't blame me

I voted for Flaherty

Word to the wise politician - if you are running for office you probably shouldn't be trying to get my vote!

Word to the wise voter - you might be better off if you voted for the person I voted for - in most cases it would be hard to be worse off
