Because there's never been a corrupt Democrat in Massachusetts....

While they should look into it, something tells me a literally moment before convicted Felon isn't going to be the pinnacle of honestly and integrity.

Especially since he seems to think his sister testify against him is some how his sisters husband "throwing the sister under the bus".

Kid don't sound too bright, probably retahded.

The average Masshole doesn't care about corruption in Massholia because they are all corrupt there.

Sibling feud and illegal gambling.

Well, that sounds delicious normal for a sitting politician. More of this crap instead of sweeping other crap would be great, kthxbai.

John Tierney, 60, is now seeking his ninth term in Congress, and faces a challenge by Wakefield Republican Richard Tisei, a former state senator.

Are there any Lowe or Clemens Republicans running for the seat?

Tisei is socially liberal but fiscally conservative. Very smart and dedicated to service.

He's actually a decent guy, openly gay and with the same partner for abt 20 years. He's lived, breathed and enjoyed political service since high school. Interned under Reagan. He's one of the most 'decent' Republicans you'll meet. Still a Republican though, but wants the gov't out of people's bedrooms and personal lives.

Disclaimer: I'm one of his close relatives.
