St. Fleur Joins Wilkerson and Cabral, and -Yes- Finneran and Bulger
Since I've already been branded a racist, by Dan Zarrella (in comments here), I might as well just ask: what's the deal with the prominent black female politicians in Massachusetts?
Diane Wilkerson and her taxes.
Andrea Cabral and her apparent obstruction of justice, punished by a civil jury.
Marie St. Fleur and her taxes and loans.
Yes, I could say what's up with the white Irish male politicians in Massachusetts, but there are so many of those that the proportions seem off.
Someone please tell me that this isn't a fair sample, and that there are a)lots of black female pols in Massachusetts, making this number insignificant; or b)there are so many delinquent/criminal pols in Massachusetts that my selection of these three for highlighting is implicitly biased.
Either way, Reilly made a bad pick. As I said.

Carpie, how does an attorney general who vets his own contributors before he'll take their money NOT vet his own choice for LG?

I don't know, Wave, I don't know.
I've taken a look at Patrick and find he is way too left for my taste.
Unless Reilly handles this amazingly well, Healey here I come.
