Capuano gives a thumb's up to the Yankees
KennedySeat.com reports US Rep. (and Senate hopeful) Mike Capuano voted yes on a measure to congratulate the Yankees on their World Series win.
In fact, so did Reps. Frank, Lynch, Tierney, Markey, and Neal. Olver and Tsongas voted "present," McGovern didn't record a vote. Only Delahunt had the courage to vote "nay."

Globe lets candidate define opponent
The Outraged Liberal is outraged at a Globe interview with Mike Capuano, in which he charges, without any challenges from the Globies, that he is more liberal than Martha Coakley.
... My issue is with Andrea Estes and the editors who allegedly exercise tight rein over their reporter charges. Where is the effort to challenge him on his assertions that "she's not a liberal."
Personally, I'd love to know where Capuano differs with Coakley -- and when I persisted in reading to the almost bitter end I found the public option and Afghanistan are areas I should explore.
On my own without help from the newspaper supposedly devoted to helping its diminishing stable of readers understand the personalities and issues of an historic election.
Reporters, particularly those who cover politics, love to declare they are equipped with BS detectors and that they hold politicians accountable. You sure couldn't prove it with this notebook dump. ...

Mike Capuano reads Facebook
Interesting experiment: Post a Facebook status update complaining that Mike Capuano seems to have reached out to everybody buy you and see how long it takes the Senate hopeful to call you on the phone. If you're Josh Dawson (member of the Democratic State Committee and the Boston Ward 5 Democratic Committee, vice chair of the Greater Boston Young Democrats, and he's legislative director for a state senator), the answer is: A few minutes.

BU students think they deserve better than Mike Capuano
Outrage, dispair, Facebook grumbling, that the Somerville congressman is their commencement speaker.
Be sure to read the quotes from the journalism and poli-sci major who is particularly incensed because Capuano got BU some money to fix up part of Comm. Ave.
The Outraged Liberal tells them to grow up and suggests the particular student outraged over sidewalks consider a profession where she doesn't have to do critical thinking.
