Could this guy be the perfect replacement for Sen John Kerry? [View all]

Michael Everett Capuano;




Michael Everett Capuano is serving his seventh term as a Representative in Congress for Massachusetts' Eighth District, which includes Cambridge, Chelsea, Somerville and approximately 70% of Boston. He is a member of the House Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure and the House Committee on Financial Services. In November of 2006, Mike was appointed to head the Transition by then Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi as Democrats prepared for a majority role in the 110th Congress. In January of 2007, Speaker Pelosi appointed Mike to chair the Special Task Force on Ethics Enforcement. In March of 2008, a resolution establishing an Office of Congressional Ethics was passed, involving non-Members of the House in ethics matters for the first time in history.

Since there are ongoing speculation about John Kerry being seen as the right man for the Secretary of Defense job I felt we should also be looking for a solid replacement for him so we don't get caught with our pants down, now is not the time to let up.

FORWARD!
