"you are for woman's rights, or you're not"
Who is she saying that to and what does that have to do with free speech? Listening to Charlie Baker talk about fiscal responsibility is like getting lectured on abstinence from Paris Hilton - Tim Murray
I started listening around 9:30, so I do want to hear the beginning of the debate as well. Listening to Charlie Baker talk about fiscal responsibility is like getting lectured on abstinence from Paris Hilton - Tim Murray
I think Capuano lost people talking about earmarks and the legislative process. I know he's running on experience, but that's is way too insider.
Khazei enabled Capuano's wonkery by harping on earmarks.
Poor Pagliuca. That draft comment may be his Waterloo.
There is certainly a major difference between my position and Martha Coakley's. Coakley has said - and said again last night on NECN that she would have voted NO in the House. That is a MAJOR difference between us. I voted to keep the debate alive and continue the fight - she would have killed the bill which would have ended the debate and any hope of getting real health care reform. And, as a point of information, in that same NECN interview Martha refused to answer the same hypothetical question that was posed to me - what would she do if she were in the Senate. - Cap

I submitted a question to WTKK that was not asked, "Would Martha choose the health care debate in the Senate as a battleground for the Hyde amendment and if not, would she vote for the health care reform bill with the Hyde Amendment intact?"
I suppose if Martha won't answer the question about voting for HCR with Stupak, she wouldn't answer the question about voting for HCR with Hyde. www.bit.ly/7Wousr - "Must include a public option" www.bit.ly/7yaoMv - Coakley shifts, backs abortion curb www.bit.ly/5f8CVb - John Kerry reporting for duty! www.bit.ly/6rJnZU - Questions for Martha Coakley on Civil Rights

Q to KZ: about city year jobs - below minimum wage, etc. should people judge you on what you've done, or what you've promised? KZ: judge me on both. they are often first jobs, and they're good jobs. city year people love their jobs.
KZ: judge me on both. they are often first jobs, and they're good jobs. city year people love their jobs.
and, on casino jobs:
these are not good jobs - they pay $6.50 an hour, not even min wage. i have confidence in MA re jobs. Not good jobs.
Considering that the City Year jobs only pay about $5 an hour in cash and boot you out the door after a year it's hard to see how they are much better, in economic terms, than the derided casino jobs. Plus, some casino jobs pay much more, but all the City Year positions pay the same food stamps-eligible wages. BMG: Reality-based commentary.
