Massachusetts...Governor?

Question

I am starting to get aggravated by Kerry Heally but I would like to make a knowledgable decision, Is she ever going to talk about herself or just sling dirt at Deval Patrick. I found Devals site to be very informative. And though I do agree with some of his stands on the issues I know nothing about Kerry. Anyone have any opinions

Answer 1

Kerry Healey is going to have a tough time of winning this race because of a lot of things, not the least of which being that Deval Patrick is a very respected individual and also a strong Candidate. However some of the other things that are imparing Kerry Heally is her close proximity to Mitt Romney, who has been spending the last year and a half not running the state in favor of his eminent bid for the Presidency. She does have a few things going for her though....there has never been a female governor of Massachusetts (kind of offset by the fact that theres never been a black governor either) and she has a point that with the heavily democratic state house some people see it as necessary to have a republican counterbalance in the governors mansion to make sure the government doesnt run away with itself....however i tend to think that the congress isnt as liberal as everyone says it is.....i mean all the tax cuts romney brought had to be passed by them and they were....so imean how liberal can they be?.........
hope this helps.....but its awesome that you are asking questions and not just picking someone based on parties or initial reactions :)

Answer 2

Well, I don't know what views you support but I'm going to vote for Deval Patrick.

I like what he is saying and clearly he did win the primary.
Plus, I don't like Mihos and the way he is running his campaign
Kerry Heally is okay but I don't support a lot of her views.

Answer 3

I'd go for Patrick who at least is speaking about actual issues rather than engaging in partisan mud-slinging. Apparently the trend in politics is to use dirty tactics if you have no ideas or thoughts of your own.
