Former aide to Jack Hart throws ring in South Boston state-rep race

Mike McGee visited my House today. What a nice Guy. I was very impressed with the litany of qualifications this Young Man brings to the Table. If he brings that same Work Ethic to the State House he will be a Leader the Likes of which this District has never seen before. When he told me about the Civic, Benevolent, and Volunteer Organizations that he is a member of (for some time now) I was very impressed. His Plan is very concise and clear. He is very humble and sincere about what he advocates for. I told him he has my vote. I happen to be a Life Long Resident of South Boston. I know sincerity and honorabilty when I see it. I've also met and spoke with a couple of the other Candidates as well. Unfortunately, all I'm hearing from them is "Vote for me because I'm from Southie and My Father has connections". Well, that about raps it up for me. I'm voting McGee!

Hey 2nd st...the reason people support Mike McGee is because they like him and they know that he is in this for all the right reasons. I meant to ask you...what is your purpose in Life? You mentioned Organized Labor. Are you on the Executive Board? Are you active in the Cause of Labor? Do you go to the Monthly Meetings? I'm betting you are a bomb tosser that only "uses" the Union when you are in trouble for missing work as the result of your Alcohol abuse. Stop your incessant sniveling and get a Life you layabout! I know your type. You are a Phony to the highest degree! Go to a meeting and get your life on course!

Hey 2nd st. I'll tell you why I support Michael McGee. He is clearly the most qualified Candidate in this Race. He's done more in his EIGHT YEARS as a Loyal South Boston Resident than the others have done combined. Mike brings much to the Table of Local Politics. Mikes foremost Passion is for Quality School Choice. I've never in all my Years as a South Boston Resident seen a Young Man with such a clear and concise Plan with respect to Quality Education. Another reason I support Michael McGee is his Benevolence. Never in my Years as an active supporter of Democracy have I seen such a strong supporter of giving back to the Community that you profess to advocate for. Frankly, it's hard to keep up with Michael when he's doing is customary "Team McGee Volunteer Events". They are never ending. Having said that, another reason I support Mike McGee is his humble demeanor. When Mike is involved in a conversation with the people of this Community he talks softly, and listens intently. It's a virtue that one doesn't see much often. Mike is a relentless advocate for Programs that keep at risk kids off the Streets. Whether it be coaching Pop Warner Football, CYO Basketball, advocating for the PAL "Stretch Walsh" Center that Menino is targeting for closure, Mike is always there.That is why Mike made homemade "Protest" Signs for that cause. Mike also "walks the walk". While other Candidates are saying..."I'm going to do this, or, I'm going to do that", Mike is busy playing Ball or simply talking with his Teen Age "Little Brother" that he "adopted" through the Big Brother Association. Mike has a place in his Heart for Vets as well. That is why Mike attends as many Veteran Events he can. That also explains why there are so many Veterans on Mikes "Team". Moreover, it is no coincidence that Michael McGee was asked to Moderate the "Town Hall Meetings" with respect to the Gubernatorial Race. The reason Mike was asked to undertake this Forum is because obviously a lot of people feel the same way I do...He's the most qualified Candidate to do it. I could go on and on, and catergorically list all the Charity's, Benevolent Organizations, Civic Organizations etc. ect. etc. but there isn't enough time and space to do it in here. However, I would be remiss if I didn't add that the thing I like best about Mike is that he's not a Political Insider. At the end of the day Michael is just a Guy who has a genuine passion for advocating for people. He genuinely cares about his fellow Man and will go to great lengths to improve ones quality of Life. In closing, it is important to remember that Michael felt that this Community needed strong Leadership...That is why he announced his Candidacy in November, long before everyone else threw their Hats in the Ring.

Hey Pedroia...When you have the opportunity, take a look at the Massachusetts Political Finance Committee Web-Sit. You will be shocked to see all the Money the Collins Family has dumped in to these Hacks over the Years. Most of these Hacks have lost their collective Seats as the results of Crime (Finneran, C. Flaherty, DiMase etc. etc. etc.). Oh, and one other note...I find it interesting that Nick Collins Professes to be this great Democratic Leader when he has a "Scott Brown" Bumper Sticker on his Vehicle. His "Volunteers all seem to have them as well. Did you know that the Realty Company (MCM Properties) that Nicks Brother works for converts Triple Decker's into Condos which forces People (particularly the Elderly) out of South Boston? Also of note: Proprietor Mary Ann Crush is a major contributor to Nick Collins' bid for State Senate. I guess when Nick says "I'll hit the ground running", it brings on a whole new meaning! LOL
