Bad enough we have these moderate, right-wing dems in states like Montana or Arkansas but we do NOT want one from Massachusetts!

E-mail Print (2) Comments Text size Share Buzz up!Boston Celtics co-owner and Bain venture capitalist Stephen Pagliuca is slated to announce his candidacy for U.S. Senate today - right after he gets off a toney Concord golf course.

The deep-pocketed Pagliuca, a self-described progressive Democrat - who is scheduled to appear at a morning Celtics charity event - will face questions about contributions to Republicans such as former President George W. Bush and former Gov. Mitt Romney.

“Over the campaign we expect there will be people who ask questions about that, but his focus is introducing himself to people,” one Pagliuca adviserr told the Herald. “He is a business person who has real progressive values.”

2. He won't get the nomination. All his competition will point out the minor
problem of him supporting Bush and he'll get laughed off the campaign trail.
