want to be the next senator from Massachusetts?
Markey, Meehan or maybe Delahunt? Ed Markey used to my rep.

1. I'd like to see Kathleen Teahan come out of retirement and take his place. |
|
Or maybe Jass Stewart could run for Senate.

2. John Tierney. I doubt he'd run and he isn't as well known as the others, but he's |
|
a true progressive and a terrific Rep.

4. Are there any Democrats in Massachusetts? |
|
It seems like it would be tough to find a good one.

8. I love Markey, he is my rep, but I would prefer somebody younger. Meehan or McGovern. |

or a woman, may be (anybody good? I am not familiar with Coakley's record and do not like Murray too much).

11. I just cannot see Coakley going to D.C. Meehan I can see, he might be good |
|
However for as long as I can remember we have had Kennedy and Kerry. I just moved away 1 year ago, although we just sold our house there last week :(

9. Barney Frank. BTW, I don't think Massachusetts is as blue as it used to be when |
|
McGovern ran. and it always had too much of a tendency to elect Republican Governors. However, Bush, Romney's absentee governoshship and Palin have helped Democrats a lot recently.

Are you serious?!
Obama won 62-36% Both Senators are Democrats All of the US House Reps are Democrats
Our Governor is a Democrat The State Senate is 35 (D) -5 (R) The State House of Representatives is 141 (D) -19 (R)
The Republican Party has not seen a net gain in seats in 18 years.
The Republican Party in this state is completely inept.

Of course, then we'd have to find a replacement for her seat :)
