Today's New York Post Page Six gossip column stated that Deval Patrick was about to be offered the US Attorney position in MA amid sagging poll numbers as Governor. In a public Twitter mention similar to an exchange between the Governor and R.D. Sahl of NECN back in February, reporter Mike Sangalang at WBZ (@MikeSangWBZ) asked the Governor (@MassGovernor) about the validity of the rumor. About two hours later the Governor's press secretary, Kyle Sullivan, responded on Twitter that there was "absolutely no truth to this rumor".
