Yes THAT Andrew Card - former chief of staff to bush. He's from Hopkington MA. As a Mass resident my reaction:

2. There is some talk that the Republicans don't have anyone within
8 or 9 states of Massachusetts to run in this special election. Card's name has been kicked about as someone who could "raise money" for a race with little objection by the state's GOP ops people, but from a distance, this feels like a fool's errand for Card.

I think the seat stays blue.

6. The GOP here is totally pathetic. Totally neutered.
The whine and moan, but never field a candidate with a prayer of winning.

8. I love that kind of talk.
Don't stop.

The more meager the GOP becomes in the New England and mid-Atlantic states, the better.

Go, team.

3. If I were the eventual Democratic candidate, I'm not sure I'd even campaign against him.
Really... it's that dumb.

7. Oh, yeah, Card sure is popular in Massachusetts
They gave him an honorary degree at UMass a few years ago and you couldn't hear the presentation BECAUSE IT WAS DROWNED OUT IN BOOS.

13. Andrew Card = the turd in the punchbowl
He might get 1% of the vote...half of that coming from people with serious mental disorders.
