And the media will cover their face-off in exquisite detail." ... "Moderately risky prediction: worried they’ll be dismissed as a bunch of elitist Massachusetts liberals, the Globe’s political reporters play up Romney’s achievements in hopes that America’s conservatives will take them seriously. America’s conservatives don’t." ... "Factor in inevitable tussling with Senate president Robert Travaglini and House Speaker Sal DiMasi, and Patrick may discover that governing makes campaigning look easy." ....

Legislature votes to adjourn without taking a substantive vote at the Jan. 2nd ConCon, the Federal Court suit alleging 1st and 14th amendment violations is allowed to go forward, and will reach the United States Supreme Court in varied appeals. Moderately Risky Prediction: AFter grudging sanctions are issued by the Massachusetts Bar to legislators who are attorneys who voted for adjournment, Kris Mineau presses his luck one step further and attempts to have the legislators impeached.
