I’m sure you planned this all along! Right, Lynne?

LOL no, crap just keeps falling into my lap.

Not a bad guy, but an UBER politician- the hand shaking baby kissing all for show type. He has only been mayor about 4 years, and is relatively new to the city politics thing, but he’s been making all the right moves in terms of pacifying the critics. Personally, I can’t make an objective judgement because he’s a terrible tipper and likes to pay for his coffee with change from his cupholder.

Awww… you gave away the surprise. When I talked to the honorable mayor at the Brew & Stew, he seemed nice enough. I was hoping that he would announce the LG thang at the shindig though. LOL

He could learn a few things from Lowell. Anyone been to downtown Worcester lately?

Tim Murray is a good democrat who will be ready for bigger things in a few years
but there are a a couple of things that make his candidacy for LG
not ready for prime time. 1) He just doesn’t have any real managerial
experience and being Mayor of Worcester is really just a city councilor -
the city manager does the day to day work while Tim practices law. 2) He just asked the residents
of Worcester for re-election, but clearly had no intention of completing the job. That is
alarmingly like Weld, Cellucci and Romney. Such clear disingenuousness is alarming to me and not
the kind thing I would want in a candidate or a “mayor.”

I’ve been to downtown Worcester and Lowell.
You have a beautiful Ballpark. Worcester
will have that soon. Tim Murray brought
professional hockey back to Worcester and
a baseball team. Tim came from blue collar
roots, his daddy didn’t own a chain of
grocery stores, they worked hard for what
they have.
