Massachusetts Voters Still Want A Kennedy

By W. James Antle, III on 9.17.09 @ 10:29AM

Even though one doesn't want to run. A poll shows Joe Kennedy remains the favorite for his uncle's Senate seat despite his decision to remain at Citizens Energy. Republican prospects look predictably bleak.

The stupidity of liberals in general and the voters of Massachuesetts in particular knows no bounds.

I don't get how the working-class people of South Boston could support effete liberal snobs like the Kennedys.

Does anyone else see the irony of the state that played such an important role in our founding is so hell bent on reestablishing royalty 235 years later?

C Bob - it's actually reestablishing Irish royalty, and it's about 435 years later.

Spicy Joker, there are drastically reduced numbers of working class people "of South Boston".

These working class neighborhoods of Boston have long disappeared. Their ancestors live in the South Shore suburbs.

City of Boston neighborhoods are dominated by extremes, young professionals, public employees and large groups of the underclass.

This week, son of South Boston and onetime union local head, Steve Lynch, was forced out of the running in the Democratic primary, because he dared question, ObamaCare and is rumored to be pro-life. He is a political untouchable.

The well heeled moonbat and underclass contingents vote reflexively Left. There are some moderate and even conservative murmurs in the suburbs. However, the Commonwealth is, in essence, a rotten borough for the Left.
