Help me out Mass du'ers, if Kerry were to get a cabinet position who would you

[AlCzervik]

want to be the next senator from Massachusetts?

Markey, Meehan or maybe Delahunt? Ed Markey used to my rep.

[Ian David]

1. I'd like to see Kathleen Teahan come out of retirement and take his place.

Or maybe Jass Stewart could run for Senate.

[Caution]

2. John Tierney. I doubt he'd run and he isn't as well known as the others, but he's

a true progressive and a terrific Rep.

[GreenPartyVoter]

3. Who ya got that's really progressive? :^)

[AlCzervik]

5. i don't live in mass anymore but i did for 30 years, the mass coalition is a pretty

good one but i don't know who the most progessive one is.

4. Are there any Democrats in Massachusetts?

It seems like it would be tough to find a good one.

[AlCzervik]

6. you're kidding right?

[theboss]

7. Yes, yes I am

Goodness.

[Mass]

8. I love Markey, he is my rep, but I would prefer somebody younger. Meehan or McGovern.

or a woman, may be (anybody good? I am not familiar with Coakley's record and do not like Murray too much).

[NotThisTime]

11. I just cannot see Coakley going to D.C. Meehan I can see, he might be good

However for as long as I can remember we have had Kennedy and Kerry. I just moved away 1 year ago, although we just sold our house there last week :(

[No Elephants]

9. Barney Frank. BTW, I don't think Massachusetts is as blue as it used to be when

McGovern ran. and it always had too much of a tendency to elect Republican Governors. However, Bush, Romney's absentee governoshship and Palin have helped Democrats a lot recently.

[AlCzervik]

10. When i left Celluci was the governor.

[Caution]

12. Not as blue??!!!?!

Are you serious?!

Obama won 62-36%
Both Senators are Democrats
All of the US House Reps are Democrats

Our Governor is a Democrat
The State Senate is 35 (D) -5 (R)
The State House of Representatives is 141 (D) -19 (R)

The Republican Party has not seen a net gain in seats in 18 years.

The Republican Party in this state is completely inept.

13. Niki Tsongas

Of course, then we'd have to find a replacement for her seat :)
