Congratulations to Massachusetts voters who chose Charlie Baker for governor.
Congratulations to Massachusetts voters who chose Charlie Baker for governor. We were not swayed by the powerful Democrat machine and their all-stars (the Clintons and Michelle Obama) who descended from on high to support Martha Coakley. Don’t get me wrong, I am sure Ms. Coakley is a nice person but it is better with divided government. For too long, our state has been plagued with one-party rule, which breeds corruption, cronyism and cynicism.
Nationally, voters clearly signaled their disapproval of President Obama’s agenda and leadership. He was upside down in every poll and in every category. I am convinced the new Congress will work together but I am not hopeful about Team Obama. The president and his advisers are stubborn and determined to impose their vision on a country that no longer trusts him. Nearly three quarters of us feel the U.S. is on the wrong track.
If I read the tea leaves correctly, Obama’s final two years will be volatile and cement his place in history as one of the worst presidents in the modern era.

Outstanding Peter B. Robb.
RED West TisburyOutstanding Peter B. Robb. Although the Dems on the island still sided with their anointed one the rest of the state's dems voted along with us and I am sure they did not let on what they did behind the curtain.
We will see how the so called tolerant dems treat Charlie Baker now that he won fair and square.
Thanks, Red. I think Charlie
Peter Robb Holliston and Oak BluffsThanks, Red. I think Charlie will be a great governor. He has already reached out to communities that did not support his candidacy. He just picked a Democrat to serve with him. Balance in government is a good thing.
I am not a fan of Deval Patrick and think we need to move away from his type of leadership. MA is a great place to live and we should not take it for granted.
