WHAT were voters thinking? WHAT were they drinking? To elect such a total tool as governor? In Massachusetts, of all places. (Not that I can see him being elected anywhere in the U.S.)

1. It's my understanding that when he ran in Massachusetts
he ran to the left of Ted Kennedy... that's why he's so famous for being a flip-flopper.

7. Even if he wasn't a flip-flopper . . .
He comes off so slick, prepackaged, and phony-baloney.
I can't imagine anyone buying it. :wtf:
