TAMPA – Trail mix from covering the 2012 Republican National Convention:
With her heritage, doctorate from Trinity College, and affinity for Ireland, it’s always been easy to envision former Lieutenant Governor Kerry (Murphy) Healey as a potential US ambassador to Ireland — should her former running mate, Mitt Romney, be elected president.
Comments
The Republican Convention in Tampa showed Americans the respect and admiration the state workers had for Gov.Mitt Romney. Also, we have to admit that Governor Mitt Romney and former Lieutenant Governor Kerry (Murphy) Healey, were head and shoulders above the present yahoos that we have with an absentee Governor Patrick and his choice of Timothy Murray, an individual of questionable ethics and abilities.
What we saw at the Republican Convention was a leadership team that was led by Gov. Mitt Romney who were competent, worked hard, with the goal to provide the best leadership for the Massachusetts residents. The team was successful, and happy to express their support for their leader (Gov. Romney). Gov. Romney DID NOT have the same luxury as Obama to come into office with a FULL HOUSE of elected Republicans - not like Obama who came to office with a full HOUSE of elected Democrats who supported him in his first two years of office: BUT, OBAMA failed to capitalize on his good fortune - Obama failed to recognize the situation!!!
Good-by Obama.
