Deval Patrick Stumbles in Big Debate

Sounds like Charlie Baker had a great performance against incumbent Deval Patrick in yesteday's debate, according to the Boston Herald. The Boston Globe, unsurprisingly didn't report anything like that. While there were a number of different areas that Baker outperformed Patrick, I'd have to say what left Patrick most exposed was his response to "Which living politician you would most like to be?"

First Patrick said nothing, or no one. Then finally, he said Mayor Bloomberg. Reason: For defending the mosque to be built at Ground Zero.

Umm. Of all things he could have said... I think we now know the true Deval Patrick. Not to far off from big buddy Obama. And now that Obama will be in Boston today, it's possible that Obama's appearance could be the nail in the coffin for Deval.
