Republican Death March Continues

by: AuMass

Sun Feb 14, 2010 at 22:49:09 PM EST


In other good news for Libertarians, the Republican Party is continuing its death march.

The Republican Party death march is advancing:

State Senate:

Scott Brown...out of office
Bob Hedlund..running for Congress
Richard Tisei...running for Lieutenant Governor

These changes drop the Republicans to two seats in the Senate.

State House

Lew Evangelidis...running for Sheriff
Robert Hargraves...retiring
Jeff Perry...Running for Congress
Karen Polito...running for Treasurer, it appears.

These changes drop the Republicans to twelve seats in the House.

In addition, one Republican State Rep is running for the vacant State Senate seat, but this is a special election: His own seat is not at risk, so win or lose he is still a Republican state legislator.

A few more years of this, and we will become the number two party in Massachusetts.  (Cynics will says we will actually become the new Number Three Party, behind the liberal Democrats and their only mortal enemies, the machine Democrats.)

In more good news, we are starting to get candidates for State Legislature:
  Bob Underwood in Springfield
  Jonathan Loya in mid-state
  perhaps a State Senate candidate near Hull.
