The Kennedy Seat

But the good people like BitTorrent.

Very good Ferrero is -- room. Yeah okay.

Tuesday morning feels like Monday confusing week but an exciting lineup a lot of people have last week off. A lot of people took Friday off to next strongly capsule. Monday of causing a lot of -- got a three -- we can this be shortened week yes very confusing green -- tomorrow as opposed so you know our second after two full -- it's on America's -- we can have a way to the green -- is coming to us tomorrow that's exactly -- literally -- moment wheels -- quickly -- I said Joe Kennedy is out of the race for the US senate in which is just you -- is it is so disappointing you know bothered -- it was so it was a great opportunity for us to have him to -- around. -- you know -- and that's how you approach these are absolutely as like your -- to know Kennedy has any right to be -- embraces eternity if they dared to step up it's one of those go ahead make my day moment hasn't been intrigued by but I'm -- more intrigue and excited about what I anticipated okay what do you anticipate as a big question or if it's not Joe Kennedy which Kennedy is we're -- a -- because we know the media tells us every every lead in this story about Joe Kennedy opting out was some thing. Like this. The people of Massachusetts face. Having a US senator whose name is not Kennedy for the first time in nearly fifty years or. For the first time in over half a century. The people of Massachusetts based not having a Kennedy in the US senate they're all the same words just. Twisted around we we talked about this practically -- shouldn't that be cause for celebration moment the site shouldn't they say how old he does not aristocracy after all -- the right and I'd I'd mention that I knew was my thought my my guest at the Kennedy era. The magic the are all of them pathology if you will you can -- that conclusion Joe might be getting out of the way because Teddy -- and that Kennedy family had a -- and realized. Somebody named Ted Kennedy has a better chance of winning then someone named Hilton shut it.

The go Obama sending a little kind of flare up but the up in the sky sent the Chavez connection is going to become fodder if you look at the comments that they are you followed this I don't think up my uncles were a little -- that in --

I I I once she's a she's a shark I -- you -- run. A high I. I'm Martha -- guess what I don't have any friends in Venezuela. My friends are in the state of Massachusetts and I will go to Washington to fight for you. Bad end of job and of -- I think South Shore it up so -- we say about the comments on the story. The comments on the starter actually mostly largely favorable to show. To citizens energy. And people who had been helped by citizens energy after they've been laid off and extended unemployment FiOS anyway that I don't feel with the that was durable. Our friend is that was before the word went out really organization that was -- Kennedy organization I say again damning that through game because they thought there was ago yeah okay is oh that's so weird it shows ya how torrent -- watch this show obviously wanted to run for the US senate because he had a year. And a few months to consider his options. You would have thought issue's gonna run that bank. The day after -- whenever moment he consider appropriate today after the funeral whatever fifty would've announced that he was in the race yup but instead. There was something that held them back and what that had to have -- was the research coming in. About how people in the state view him and how they will view in the learning more and having an enhanced and -- about his relationship with his friends in Venezuela -- with his friends in Venezuela has so former wife that was gonna become campaigned for a because that sort of died on the -- when he stepped away from the gubernatorial -- yeah -- knows what that would have. From others -- so cool. All he has to do is go out there and say -- luck. I'm in modern American man unfortunately. Divorce is very common -- I have an angry divorce I'm not the first guy you know that doesn't preclude me. From running for Apollo god willing -- field in which Martha Coakley had already made it clear I'm running come hell or high water running whether this one Kennedy a fifteen Kennedy's I'm running. Did he want to have a story about the bullying treatment and that's how what's alleged described in the globe and herald the bullying treatment and the intimidation of his first wife. The threat Tylenol but you're certainly. You work all this your -- dialogue when I was young it if you don't you don't work interior ministry -- Martha Coakley in the race treated you don't read what is your vantage usually do the only guy like Steve Lynch's straight you say I have to tell you. The first half of my life I was so devastated by the death of my father. And the death of my Angel my dad in a park and I'll have violence gonna. I'm -- you know. Yeah. Did you just say I -- a lot of us I was a pig headed obnoxious. Torque. And a you know I've learned my.

It's changed you put this violin music in the back. -- Used to be -- idea where his banjo. Is simply just like our -- I used to be.

Wine and I've done better so. Well. Is the outsider Joe Kennedy's announcement yeah. Others were allowed to this race this is gonna become the time for -- issue and I want. At least on the democratic side -- a little low worried about the new public which -- Kennedy do you think it's just you know can you think is not.

Kennedy any Kennedy no Kennedy in the I might change -- an enemy enemy it won't be healthy thing go to -- it might it might. It won't be healthy race because of the absence of the Kennedy but it will be a healthy race because of the presence of others who will now consider probably get into the race you don't think Vic is -- are -- I do not -- million you don't think Ted he's gonna move here from Connecticut era. Is over how can be hero how can it -- continue face. Here's our question can you face it. If there's not Kennedy in the race for the US senate. Can you face it. After fifty years not having a Kennedy in the -- I don't think the people Massachusetts conceal his went 61726. Or Massachusetts -- it's always and you can so easily rot not Ross Ross is not gonna get in the rest but we're gonna get -- a lot of will be in this race -- is already in lynch is 90% sure. You might get it Ed Markey -- Who knows who else might get in Scott Brown's gonna get -- and I know. I don't know I don't know well here's the interesting question of the Republican side so we can broaden the question just about -- the absence of a Kennedy doesn't bother you -- Is Mitt Romney going to giddy and why -- how could he not while. Because you -- run for president well well why dilute first of all he wanted to be US senators over the years ago no because when he was a -- no greater opportunity second is probably no better steppingstone he's our had been governor he's not gonna come back to an executive position in Massachusetts. With Kerry -- out of the is no person right now on the field -- even remotely close to the field of for the Republicans. Who can win this -- That changes of its Mitt Romney don't know how would really change your life is what does he -- out of ten. He takes out that checkbook out any rights at a cheque for about ten. Ten billion dollars instantaneous. The favorite Republican. In Massachusetts you don't think that becomes -- stepping down on the -- any urgency.

Nine yards of first of all who in their right mind would think that you could serve in the US senate for just two years kind of -- and announced that not. President is seated in our -- and yes I -- Lightning doesn't strike twice a second I. I'm expenses ten million dollars you'll any winds down 5347. A cat or 5240. He wins in the bluest of blue state yet and everybody's -- in the pros are suing their former governor popular guy in this Asia only when a squeaker election and hid the body election yeah. He's out as a presidential candidate out there and you know right now on Mitt Romney is the leading Republican in the race for the present he said no we. Murray showing windows doesn't exactly yeah so why would he waste ten million bucks on a -- all of this Friday in the -- the states might. Might beckoned him from that kind of what is. It's not very laughed halfway through the tar yeah that's true nobody could find them US senators different. Yeah I'd rather than I don't you have to 617266. Succeeds succeed. Can you survive it without -- how are you on the US senate and don't you think there's some Kennedy they -- a lot of them they'll. Do you think there's some Kennedy is gonna jump in this race. Is gonna be -- think I don't think the Democrats are gonna let -- this easily because think about you go from a candidate.

Really a great US senate don't. Jake Kennedy of Kennedy Brothers. Rehab they do feet PT physical therapy and he's not related he's not related when he I would vote for any changes -- and is one of the nicest guys you have a meeting he is a -- should get an early last specialists and he's a very generous community oriented guy they're very generous if you ever watch your campaign. -- now I give money to him -- Because you're -- congress -- he -- a big Christmas in the city things -- kids -- is a fabulous -- Did it I'm I'm I -- that Hannity might. Might you know like you're -- this Todd.

So how do you think this went down I figured Joe Kennedy. When he got in touch with his biggest supporters she called venezuelans -- Hugo. How much like when you got kitchen. And who is our -- you wouldn't spend enough maybe I don't know how -- you think Joe would have needed to -- promising not Ahmadinejad some stuff it was a -- he's promised so maybe -- also splintered his. He key does -- money off for dry just -- I can't get over I think maybe. I figure would -- heard was that. They don't like you and they're not gonna like you in the Chavez thing is gonna Killian. Right is that what you think you heard or knew things the Sheila stuff to first marriage.

I think it's a combination of all of the above this be some question about the you know continuation of the Kennedy legacy so and it's about I think he's happy time I think he's happy I think he likes his -- and I don't think he liked. -- Right a stroke. And it be family consideration to be all sorts of things but I think he's very very happy doing his work I mean I think it just comes down to that and get to put yourself -- and I realize it's only might be gay strip a Palestinian September race I think what their loads and three months yes from the day from today the day yeah so it's a three -- sprint. And ENN is as attractive as that might be it is -- deal if you. The candidate it is a grind it is --

On three Oskar and also what's the big deal it's a job you want but. It seems to me would Joe Kennedy looked -- an end said it is I have nowhere to go but down the big fear if you're the celebrity candidates fear the issue end show front runner. Is that the moment you announce. You're no longer the big guy anymore they start taking pot -- a whole comes out the shows you insect complacent suddenly you'll look like a loser you -- vulnerable and I think in this political climate they made the calculation. That the voters are ornery enough and unpredictable enough that they're not gonna want another Kenny shut down their status that is very much true that in this political climate it'd be but it's more difficult than it otherwise would have been there's no question about as much as every Friday for very beautiful. There's no great Kennedy waved as much as the -- tried to contrive one. And as much as the Democrats and Washington have tried to exploit his illness and his death I had to get health care passed. There is no up -- and I think this is gonna impact the legislature to on this. That's enabling the loss thing I think the legislature is gonna make the same calculation is your political environment we cannot afford to -- to -- ourselves on this particular issue in this moment.

The notion in terms of that legislation don't change the designation would give the governor special -- ignition. The boys think about it it almost becomes laughable the US senate continues to function of the country continues to move forward. Sometimes -- senator is missing for the better part of 90% of the votes not just Senator Kennedy wherever you know John Kerry when he was a candidate John McCain when he was a candidate Hillary Clinton when she was a candidate Barack Obama to senate continues to function and by the way. This is not as if the US senate is some type of manufacturing. Construction company on a precise deadline on a mega project that's crucial to without your. Wherever there's always gonna be empty spot in the commercialize -- I don't have. -- we need to. I I mean that is an that is absolutely insane it is supposed to be deliberative it is supposed to be slow on my thought is hideous -- the last and -- that's what it's supposed to be -- because the founding fathers were very worried about the power concentrated in a way in which decisions could be made instantaneously without. The benefit of public input or public costs of the democratic processes actually working here because. The people are awake enough. Two have a local in their own their representatives -- certainly are and those town hall meetings in August was the best example of game changer so called big stuff. Big big stuff no question about -- in given all that how does Barack Obama come out and change. That the caller of the debate with on health -- by giving a speech well and then can you imagine that how ya -- watched that speech as closely as he watched the inauguration speech show he is except no I say I don't think I'm gonna falsely all I think also -- on the island -- I'll watch in this one. I'm very closely to be a pre show. -- in a presentation I'm sure -- good to override decisions we'll have that than the than his speech itself then they'll be post speech analysis is gonna be good stuff tomorrow night yeah and by the way let's not a well it's it's off it's off topic but. A week from today. Well we're gonna have. A mayoral primary going on we firms and yet we've from grand swap out lot of stuff going over -- Spanish nationality no -- let's gets let's get harassed and boss -- NW RQ good morning.

Guys. Like you're partially right he communicated with you about your generous support. Yet communicated was shot is for sure. But the big question has. You go away you -- my contractor and that was his final decision. So as soon as he got the go ahead but we expect hundreds of thousands of dollars he's gonna make that kind of money in the Senate.

Although you think Joe just cares about money you don't think ego is more important than money. -- considering -- how hot mulling that over us is -- go to our. Our -- family does he makes his 500 grand a year wishes good lunch money you can entertain on that end. Maintain the homes in a Florida and now. Mourning the loss -- and his wife was on the payroll as well. This year -- so it's more than 515 of one of the subsidiary prime makes a million. -- pay her more sort of secure too bright cover and that.

And there are in other involves and a number of things and -- wind energy in all sorts of things that are involved in. Pharmaceutical. Prescription. They a lot of mail order prescription or -- a stand alone I'll that was before the Dell they're they're gone they're out of that one now yeah Iran and so. They death Dave Dave could have made a lot of -- with the health care thanks so -- one when we come back we'll continue the conversation about Kennedy but I want to broaden the conversation -- I am dead serious about Mitt Romney who else to the Republicans put up all of.

And I want them you know that doesn't mean he's got up. Okay jets are gonna do it why when you raise the front burner for the presidency is not gonna do anything maybe then I'll maybe not. Also talks on Boston's talks -- AM 0680. W -- your own. Ladies. Ladies pay attend.

I'm very disappointed. Basically this has been. The best the past year year and a half has been the best time to be in talk radio. Probably in history broadcast on -- you know for the first -- that first carrier signal out there. There has never been a better time to be talking about issues going on in the world because first of all you have the fraudulent president Barack Obama who stole the election. And then you have. Just a series of unbelievable -- right one after another culminate with -- usually gets kind of tired and slow in the summer if they -- that the news cycle goes into -- military white sharks and even show up to Labor -- that I knew it was such a good some -- days there weren't -- there would -- space -- those guys actually and then Barack Obama give -- the -- situation BSE which was just a glorious gift I was like -- that was our Christmas those for Christmas veterans like the best Christmas ever ever -- ever -- situation -- I -- he -- a basically healthcare and the unraveled healthcare and and on the bush is on the spirit after having given the speech that was designed to -- put a drag on that subject create momentum. I don't know -- so that was IE DJ situation. An inter uterine device so those are. I 617 Q -- 66 we can you stand the idea this out the media's covering. Joe can either saying for the first -- nearly fifty error is there will be kept any other senate seat. Do we care other than to celebrate that fact what a glorious saying it is what a beautiful thing. To actually have democracy have a shot. The press frenzy about all things Kennedy Joe Kennedy Ted Kennedy Vicki Kennedy the press frenzy could very well be one of the more significant fact this Joe Kennedy -- but this has mature and responsible guy with a job that he enjoys should as the relationship there was Chavez -- the globes and say that's gonna be cut apostle mania campaign. He probably looks at a given his maturity and says who needs this grief I'm not my uncle. I'm not my dad about the other uncle minutes the president while you're making a blocks old file up -- what -- none of those things nor do I. 12 everybody waited -- yesterday's announcement well he had a year plus to think it or -- took till yesterday to make of this minds what that means is. That he wants it if it -- and the idea that he can't just cruise into it he's planned all these years. That the red carpet would -- laid out and you -- just strolled down as the crowds applauded his ascension dashed into the Kennedy for all the -- he saw that wasn't that story you -- why I always stay in congress he doesn't. Like you know he didn't stand congress because even have to do he knew that think the citizens energy credential is even better than being in congress. If viewers eight did a it was all laid out just perfectly and thanks so he what he wanted to run for governor. That's why you got our congress right he wanted to be the governor of the state of Massachusetts. He we'd give it time for the that they when this first marriage should dies down and go away at least not until the stats Deval Patrick thought he wanted to be Governor Deval Patrick is actually enjoying. The job of governor it looks vision of hands I can't get cocktail parties I think -- very very attractive from a -- distance. And -- and the campaign is actually as much -- grind as it is. That's been the easiest -- as Barack Obama. --

and do what's gonna judge. Problem with -- spirit. Which is their run lead. Mitt Romney has just aren't --

Well history sold the home. -- don't have to -- you don't have that actually live in the stated has he sold a home. I don't mind I think you put it on the market I don't know that has been. That's a good point maybe his songs but that would look good in the end sort of no probably won't let -- hasn't move yet -- he wants to be here USF that I wouldn't Salt Lake City I think we'll look at why George thank you. Debate that's good what that's a good reminder that he did put the house up -- in the car good morning to you sir you're NWR jail.

There is it but I'm. I'm -- media trying to -- someone down out throats but outside of the stairwell that Johnny come lately like Mitt Romney possibly yeah. I would say. Why don't we just. Have -- natural lot of attrition and just move up congressman. And then have someone from the state level of up to that seat and then we just loop of music.

Art off so strong you're sick of that this this whole scenario out did you.

Canada but it's that's what I don't want them immediately got one person. If someone just dump a ton of money so that's obviously you don't care about anybody else. And then you have only uneducated people I've been somebody that they just -- the most feared and most -- You.

It sound like it's the Knight and Knights of Columbus just out of office the outside guy down the inside guy and I think the deputy grim night than -- okay.

Devastate thing is this guy -- the -- double edged -- a lot. --

go have your pick and that the -- a wild -- the -- is one of the -- and of of the congressional crooks but imagine. You are you gonna do your scenario what Ed Markey needed just become the senator you need -- Yeah and I cannot. Don't know that's gonna tell us what you're suggesting Lou that's the most disgusting idea I've ever heard that. It really made. It at least I don't spend their money and go out there are a lot of senator John. -- The deepest pocket -- my god -- really doesn't it really doesn't now know I know because they all have a couple million dollars basically in the in the end the ideal scramble for money mother broke lose at a big disadvantage by the bush is gonna start from scratch -- got all kinds of women's money on the grounds that he has that advantage and she's right. Radical how to keep your positions on the issues lol you'll get a label money she's already sucking up to labor saying she wants -- carjacked a good support Martha Coakley. People make me sick I was Akashi Saturday morning some guys estimate. So what he had about Joe can you think. Sanctions what do I care about Joe Kennedy get out of my face -- such stupid questions of a -- will have a -- We're mentally deficient -- he -- this like these are the things we should expect to. Happened well I'll vote how about -- dog you know I'll vote dumb. -- Ed Markey and get Margie who wants -- yeah. He's he's been too long -- Carter she sure retired years ago he is the real deal if you want the ball in the race you really don't know about you issued do. Who you want and and our listeners should want the ball in the race it makes -- only -- one Democrat in the race what is -- Marty Meehan.

I want Coakley to drop out in favor Marty Meehan stop because I want somebody uses certified liar. Our Marty -- promise to going in the congress and reiterated the promise every race beyond that he would be term limits job and many violated after year after year repeating --

Why so he took the pledge -- I think it was four terms or something like that and any decides to stay longer he put it right out front to his voters they had the chance to say you know what -- which again keywords that meant a lot to a C a -- they did they -- troubled by actually dig they. -- On top was down on his -- developed apply it to stay right since -- the vote has developed the maturities and you know why other maturity yet beyond consciousness peoples okay if -- silly things to get in office daylight when he was eight. We -- she handed to a the log in I had huge fight about campaign finance reform global Global Flyer has some of the others so some other stuff but. He turned into a very effective congressman you can't take that away from him he's turned it sure there always are all very effective though another cellular holed up at some switches up our. Bloggers and that which our current ten is not effective I'm gonna tell from the bottom level now. Oregon and it's again I'll give -- the top to a -- okay terms of productivity just and I'll stay where rumor I was riveted even though is none of that when Marty Meehan was -- Very effective are very effective skillful congressman I think Steve which is very good I think my -- was very good stuff. Jesse you pick the guys you like now I'd like to those two yes I do like this that you know a start they not.

Have the right to go back on the life as he was such a good congressman that's like if if Ernie Boch. Decided to us attorney barge unit comes on -- I don't know if I deserve to be the biggest car dealer. Let me now it's like Ted Kennedy when he gave the great Chappaquiddick speech chances. I did some horrible please tell me this apart we are gonna vote is not his congressional district not have the opportunity is say you know well that the -- each you don't get now I really trust what you're talking big -- costs to make up for a guy who's been in congress for eight years that. It would cut it costs like twenty million bucks -- make -- our that our producer is not enough money to pay. To make up for the advantage of incumbency and thanks so you know that that's why your white -- when you have when you had an -- split -- a series of explicit promises that a broken. As you said hey we've got to do you have doesn't all faced lie you know that's how you characterized it well -- it was -- bald -- time when he was -- he -- He then comes to a different judgment laid around his eyes at you I I would. And as Seagate can be effective I promise I will serve in this job for a year and how -- that's a commitment that's not how I changed my mind when you say I promise I -- this job okay and I swear. I -- I won't be -- that's a firm commitment and can't -- sorry I was just -- and then as the years come by and you come -- say you know do you remember when I said the anti Tommy blah blah -- and I said it was -- you know what I really like the show I think we're doing a good job I think the audience doesn't define dunk early -- yes I have. I gotta integrate any -- half cocked an underdog Carolina came in and ask me. Could I be released from my promise gunfire I would say I would have done.

Ha -- dig a hole in the middle of the car. I think important. Ha ha ha ha and that's the end of army lies with the physical. And that they go broke -- premise what the other the other that's I drive I was able hypothetical head emphatically. I'm schools Steven Ross. -- Basically goes on his swimming he's vicious he's completely out of his mind as modesty and -- are exhausted tonight I. -- Welcome back to the Third World.

No no don't call it family joke to. I would actually you bet you life.

to I think you're right that Patrick is an ambitious young man. But his ambition is just to be able to make around --

And that's why even now he's done it's it's -- valued -- get. It up or need any.

I.

Why would you run come on it's a family business again let me get -- if you're Ernie Boch the -- not planning. Are you not standing in the bathroom in the morning when you're doing your --

I thought this right here. -- this up up up up up until finally a box somewhere along the way is gonna say you know what is businesses not to mr.

WRKO. I have figured out why Joe Kennedy I found the reasons that I figured I found the reason the Joe Kennedy has been around for. It's a photo. In today's herald provides answered yeah. Look at his hair one color isn't. All -- walking not connected to her.

Poland join -- callers that hair that is bleached. Green globe green yeah sure it's you can't run it looks as if the shampoo. And the chlorine in the people of Massachusetts may be soft for Democrats -- they're not gonna electronic -- Arabs are. Questions through this 61726666. -- is trying to tell us that it's an upsetting. Thing to think about having a senate seat that is unfilled by Kennedy. Do you share that feeling pleased -- can almost -- good morning.

Until crushed really technically you shot out for you -- chew up okay way to try to get a good putt there. I tell us everything that was going through your -- and.

Well actually what -- letters wave Marty Meehan if there was some sort of a scale. Don't think it would radio contest I think about it maybe you guys it's Dutch company went public -- of a lie. And a politician get away -- In this state of stale opposites so much reflection on the people that the voters of that district.

Well and actually I mean it actually is my character -- it and then that was the point that throws pushed back so aggressively against Todd the blue. Voters of the district themselves had a chance to say Marty we remember very clearly what you said just -- years ago yeah. Number that are. No they certainly did -- already kidney then reminded of it constantly included by the lowest import. More. -- dead not if -- did not listening Mike you make my point did you make -- original thought this is this is either the faulted. Other responsibility. Of the voters -- you approach it as if there's no equity built up -- in name over years and -- you know if I came out without cola. That was everybody who tasted it and agreed was 1000. Times better than Coke. I that doesn't mean I could compete against them there are crushing machine might take me a hundred years. To get any market share against them now and you would deny the fact that there's any equity builds on the better mousetrap the people come to you don't odd thing is absolutely -- that they may or may or may get -- overnight nobody's gonna suggest that and -- mean isn't going to be -- easy can't always alcohol so congressman is because. If earned an office and they have an advantage they have -- knowledge they have access they have also into the thanks for the guys on the crushing power being institution. Then having federal money behind them and federal credibility behind and he is the -- they also have to make decisions on specific and cast Pacific votes when candidates do not you just -- candidate Obama and when he was. And what he has specific responsibilities what do you do he amended the law. Yes Mahdi mean I was -- And every congressman has a hold -- the big advantage Martha Coakley has in this race is she's been an executive who knows what decision she made about what. About prosecution's investigation -- she's. It's very vulnerable like she's got a lot of weaknesses is -- and she has made congressman have built up -- and anyway. She look at how -- voter. There's a hot issue and there's a very well financed candidate to go build the argument because it's just like comedians -- Ernie Boch. I could sell my car short lesson Ernie Boch in the people would still keep on -- because they've got their name equity in their mind and that's just how little work scenario reiterated tests -- read my not surrendering a giant -- reality -- and I'm not fully independent American he would see -- How are ready during he would be proud of me for standing up to the nonsense a year spewing. And tell people the truth because. Without the -- your head he can't make good decisions shall we hate you for groom ha ha -- that's good times says to John Adams and Ali -- if they come knocking on hello -- out of sales hello Steve size it up and he's coming right on absolutely him he's not gonna happen. I think he got hammered this weekend so you're saying.
