Mitt Romney Unveils Geriatric-Looking Portrait of Mitt Romney
July 1st, 2009 · No Comments · Politics
Mitt Romney (who has not recently been to Argentina, and thus is having himself a pretty good month) breezed into the State House last night to unveil a portrait of what appears to be an old-ass version of himself. Haha, at least they got the hair right.
Romney’s gubernatorial portrait boasts two props, and [...]

Democracy happened on Tuesday, and what a mess it left behind. John Kerry beat back some RFK lookalike. Longtime Senate fixture Dianne Wilkerson was overthrown by an astronaut’s daughter in a low-turnout race that broke largely along racial and neighborhood lines.
A machine boss’s daughter brought gubernatorial hellfire upon her head in [...]

Former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney didn’t get a ton of national play during this past week’s exercise in Republican media baiting democracy, mostly because his teenage sons have, thus far, avoided becoming impregnated by finger-tatted hockey players. But that doesn’t mean the state’s onetime one-term chief executive wasn’t making moves in Minneapolis. [...]

World traveler/embattled ex-public servant Matt Amorello was not in India last week. That’s because he was stuck on Beacon Hill, very nearly weeping while angrily insisting that he’s not a crook. Don’t laugh yet. Amorello isn’t just a not-crook; he’s also a sound manager who has the state’s best financial [...]

How hard has the legislature been working? On Thursday, the thirstiest day of the week, the House and the Senate both missed last call. Now that’s public service. As Governor Deval Patrick told a group of kids who were regaling him with birthday wishes, “It’s insane down there right [...]

Mitt Romney’s campaign for president has ended. Who’ll we make fun of now?
It was, by all accounts, a bizarre scene at City Hall on Wednesday when the Boston firefighters union met with members of the City Council.
“What they really should’ve done is convene the Council psychologist,” says a source. “They seem [...]

Electoral Losers and the Code of the Streets

I did some calling around yesterday, trying to get quotes reacting to Mitt Romney’s sudden France-hating, anti-Jihad implosion. And as much as it hurts to say, Howie got it right today – getting dead does do a lot for your popularity. Here’s a guy who, four years after mercilessly excoriating John Kerry as a fake, [...]
