So if DiMasi steps down does that mean the Lowell delegation is up
S^$t’s creek without a paddle?

Congratulations should go to Matt Murphy; job well done and kudos to the editors who agreed to go with the story. The Globe did not post anything on its website until after after 9:00 p.m. DiMasi may not resign but for sure he let word get out that he is seriously considering.
By the way, I think he should. He just happened to be at the office of a friend/accountant gettign a loan the same day the friend/accountant was meeting to discuss pending legislation with those who could benefit from that legislation. Then his in-laws got their “legal fees” paid by the same friend/accountant for a service that has not yet been identified. Of course, there was the mortgage loan from the friend/accountant. Enough!
ER: I agree with you; I think the same situation that allowed Matt was able to get the scoop is the same reason why the Lowell delegation needs to scramble and scramble quick.
