taking opportunities to "both sides" it when one side is not particularly relevant, is one thing from the left that kind of pisses me off.

and I don't even mean putting this out about Deval Patrick. same as you, I never took him seriously as a presidential candidate against Trump. after reading this, I'm glad he's not gonna even muddy those waters... this is that classic centrist technocratic BS that compromised the Democratic Party brand for at least 35 years.

it does answer some questions as to how he won governor in Massachusetts -- as "blue" as that state is, they occasionally elect Republicans to the top statewide positions (including their current governor)
