5. Everybody wants a piece of the action
and everybody's trying to put in their own version.

Organized confusion to say the least.

6. I don't know of any good state politicians in Mass
Most of the Dem leadership in the Mass Statehouse revolves around guys like Tom Finneran, whom I can't stand, who is also against gay marriage and won't even allow civil unions.

13. Mods can you make a sticky thread?
So the convention can be discussed as long as it is going on?
