Change The Rules For Teddy?

I would describe it as too little too late brother Justin from a new balanced world headquarters build. Store manager says there.

You know I see a connection between these stories the acorn story and what's going on Beacon Hill in terms of kidnapping the Senate seat away from the people Massachusetts attorney -- toy of the democratic majority. There's something very similar here and that his politics is not about the best interest of the people. It's about what serves the party.

Well if I stay with your analogy they're gonna kidnap the seat for it and so they'll play with a -- want to -- gonna ever gonna have a new US senator on January helping with the date nineteenth at twelve.

About screwing around with the process is part of a package they -- five years ago there doing it again now -- the implications of this -- much -- who go on much longer than just this election the real -- and inability to allow opportunity they're gonna make the Democrats pay for the -- and try to make the Democrats -- as well they -- an -- that's what I'm campaigning for right now I'll give -- now.

I'll give him my reaction turn I think they'll be some Democrats who do pay politically at the polls next year because those balls fall of this is proud -- I have no idea but this is pot apostle of a body. Of opinion that builds up from time to time do you usually during times of economic difficulty high unemployment frustration with everything because everything seems to be going wrong. A governor -- less popular than. He's not as popular as he hoped. For sure and there's just of people just got to get throw the bums out attitude or mood about it. And I think to the this the diligent representatives and senators will be fine because they attended the basic today in a day well if there's no and over again with some well. Some well others will say and it's and it's a reasonable like in -- was standing what was done five he -- go another governor tells they I have a role in the past while I was up there why did you support. I supported because it was it has the party thinks he had had a lot of momentum behind it and I just and he that you pick -- fights I mean I had enough fights up there and I got enough Scott -- to prove it. I wasn't gonna stand in the way of that when and test data to develop momentum I -- and of cigarette on the air before. I would very quickly worked out a deal with it was probably appoint somebody reasonably can keep the apartment -- But I was gonna just as if so his legislation. I could try to play goalie and stop --

Both of those is fitter and take in the power or for an update apparently he wanted to she make you expose yourself to the people and the repercussions of that continue you can slimy politics five years ago slimy politics today making the power about yourself. Instead of about the people of Massachusetts well.

That the with interest let's stay with that premise that -- just articulated. It was the bill in the end. Empower the people of Massachusetts why should Mitt Romney -- Deval Patrick -- pick you poison and already the governor -- that they had a will have why should it be the assault judgment so the -- so why was done though is it but the motive. Is it is irrelevant no motive was no Carlo the whole -- and huge if you want -- on the right thing right and he won't even NASA delayed the power of the people we enhanced. The power of the people nobody was a mask a -- well maybe a governor -- and -- the governor represented the people and he was being a good guy used to the final legislative process wanted to maintain his masculinity. He gonna deal he would remain until you India caved in to your superior masculine and yeah but but look at I mean it wasn't -- you want -- it on my initiatives that this idea -- there was going to be done with -- it would have not applied to Mitt Romney just does this -- should not apply to the -- people on power that would be noble got the week it'll look at them probably say while. These idiots might actually be looking out for the right first thing first of all -- not idiots they are not like all right. Alex is intelligent people thought you never -- group idiots that's what they -- you have now is a citizen voted taxpayer Massachusetts you now have a -- you did not have before that law was changed you could say atop the motive was grew. --

It doesn't matter that was wrong and that's what it comes down to is. That I think when you get up there you lose sight the political game is such a dominant part of daily life that you lose sight of the fact the your job mr. represent the people of Massachusetts now right now I'm sympathetic to the stress are under. These are guys who worried about their futures. And they are getting leverage by the most powerful man in the world telling them as screw up via a screw the people of Massachusetts. They don't matter. What matters is what Barack Obama wants in media loves that can't always was that well where did I overstate the.

The people the power of the people which was enhanced by the legislation in 2004 remains intact this bill says that while the election is going on. Massachusetts we'll have two senators and an active constituent service. Office that's all its sense nothing more another blast is a grubby politics yeah I'm not arguing about that well surely. Our -- politics. -- only ever -- that's all I'm saying and describing fall there's nothing -- there's nothing silly about it you can maintain entirely to maintain the propriety of -- who dissented as if in fact -- a crucial vote you won MLS is no immunity for it to senator is united and putting you know because -- focus John Kerry took a year off a Ted Kennedy took a year -- you don't know what's coming up between now John McCain took -- Xerox got so the Barack. In the message is not going to change its whole. Voice in my mind patient.

My mind the better law is to not have an interim appointment and this is why are you talking right now or fifty years because -- term appointment gives the existing power structure. The ability to -- the election that's coming in our lives on the exercise so good government requires online so -- way I just -- good government -- hurt -- now 100%. In alignment in support of what was -- in 2004 which you described his grubby -- because they did it for the purpose of fixing that moment in time for their political benefit if they -- had wanted to do and in a good government -- it would have had a four year window before -- kicked in her six -- wind or something like that. And you I tell you that when the immediate issue was we're going to be -- US senator and how we gonna fill that vacancy is it going to be because I was -- is it gonna be filled by. I mean pity because it was going. I think that's what it means it was caller by the politics of the moms hey you wanna do any abstract and postpone wealth so I want. World when the real world the real time issue was this guy may -- may -- when Belmont psyche but on how long was new law in -- fact that -- five years -- I think it was 200 years you know not to -- 150 I don't think so no I have what do you think I would say that what at whatever moment we started electing senator shield okay now with the very first senate election in this state show. The law was that the governor appoints the felon because before we have elections it came out of the -- right now. Flash assure -- to now I would be -- I would have been in favor of that laboratory and I -- you -- pick -- a tough so look at the -- as you would had a it was kids it was open political manipulation not done in the best interest of the people even though you can argue in the abstract that it was. As a coincidence in the best interest of the people that was -- the -- whole wheat the source of life -- was not they did it because they didn't want Mitt Romney you tell me tell us that if you want the governor. Now they wanna take them -- away from you Russia the Democrats up there never trust in my daughter's there what does not sell -- also noted on the console crime rate in the now 61726668. Sixes and higher NW RQ atomic taught.

I'm sure mr. better and -- EU's alleged can't -- Around this issue even know junior high why they're doing it bid bid to get. For flagrant politic. He can't say on one hand when you.

and -- and I -- that in the first instance it was flagrant politics in the second in this instance it's flagrant politics blood. Because you know fans I know that's what he got me ask what are delaying. God this is no hard times did not better girl wants to have. I love the people make this decision rather than a single person answered I'll let you see in front I'm glad I -- answer it's a trap that was not a yeah.

Actually look at the -- is okay you can try to stick it anywhere you want to give anybody can they cure cancer around the issue. And and that the fact that Metairie or it's good. Bishop then let the election go forward. And not try to play paid politic it makes the Democrats and and not system -- take.

Look at I Scott Baio write about you don't agree with discussed last statement -- makes the Democrats look bad. And the whole thing look contrived and I said to you a couple of minutes ago when -- this argument. Democrats are gonna pay the price for this at the polls not wholesale because most of them a diligent most of them can explain themselves and they attend to the basics each and every day but they're gonna be some politically vulnerable people this could be and will be part of the straw. That breaks a Camel's back let's hope so let's watch that every single incumbent who's a Democrat gets thrown out for this who votes for this 6172666. Seats succeed.

Get down off the table -- included -- part of the speaker get down the hot.

don't under the limbo. Terry can't solve a little little -- didn't -- arrived -- by Chubby -- I -- ball. Great thank you Paul.

A look at the cover corner of the -- about Lori strong. Topic actually everything it can't think you do we think every state and I want to trust this guy.

Oh how -- July do you want to trust this got to pick he does Canada the guys do great every day off times gratuitously you think about that and exchange envelope to let you know as senator Chris said to Paul and everybody else. Audition to be -- done in the abstract -- some future government through while the future is now Powell. And -- okay I think it would have been in doubt that's changing a lot but the change and JJJ -- in Dalton -- says the two months. For two months -- he's an -- have to do you just do everything well. As you exaggerated decisions is truly a bottle -- hot hot hot hot you're on WR there they're John. It cannot win and -- a drug strata have a both away -- I want to be honest and I wanted to all the truly can't do not proud of you ha ha --

Yeah dot Iraq arguing with someone who. Way the people doubt the peoples referendum on record to get without being. Income tax the guy next -- you. All the people are still.

Did you know what guys celebrate I don't know I did -- we can tell tale is that it about it I know excess tax is follows what do you say no deal gonna tell us. I -- I actually I know yeah I know you really isn't all. But the army patrol the streets majors are all and I am I don't know -- dig your alcoholic cop car. Yeah he's like yeah all the feds -- done this 30. Yeah Ronald river city.

And you've got dark and yeah I couldn't read it you -- Why did the or another chance to roll.

This -- all. -- a Democrat could you I tell you about that all logical.

A judge didn't vote for clean elections did you vote for clean elections another another voter referendum of the -- I can't match John. You know I don't Massachusetts. -- I want you -- Yeah and a bonus to grow it -- screwed. Up around eight billion euros. The hottest day is recalling about the bad guys whose income obviously vote -- he's obviously uninformed he didn't know the campaign slogan was a spur the -- I'm -- basketball casually manually genocide and nicely -- got -- a lot of broad OK John I love you anyway Joe looked -- comes on. This car behind you the best collar up -- down tattoos show here on WR. That is exactly.

Things that's -- wondering if we didn't seem there's still. Pandering to change the law -- was.

Gerrymandered public Tommy men and he's so excited INS whatever you -- it yourself -- And I'll throw your pulse Zamora you have to go to the doctor have taken blood pressure.

Continue promised -- the next time we have Republican governor and a legislature is not gonna say oh.

Heavy election will -- like 88 people get ready it could not be --

So they've already built the fix for of that into this bill because it they're adding a clause that says. Even if it's a Republican governor he has to a point which is patently illegal by the way right unconstitutional -- That he has so appoint somebody from the party of the previous. Senator. So they they're they're looking to scam the people in every part of our job. Oh yeah make it you make a good question I don't mind you raise a good crush -- on -- by being put on the spot and I guarantee you what the next legislature gonna do know which is why have said red from the beginning of the change in 2004. Was grubby lousy politics and I was involved than that I'm not run and from that fact. It was done a lousy reason to it had a good outcome lousy mode of no question about -- the -- I gonna deny the obvious over the lousy crappy if there was an outcome wider base runner. Up up up up because it could have been a better outcome.

So much I don't refuse don't know decide that by the way that if it could have been a better Republicans Republicans they were wrong Brad Johnson Laura. They are at this a better no interim appointment is better you think so yeah because it and do what will happen. In the future won't happen this time because the spotlight to somebody in the future -- they will pick somebody who will be running for the seat. When the during mid term elections so he'll be an incumbent. And you'll have an unfair advantage and the other amendment you mentioned that the governor's hands will be tied to restricted to you can only pick from a certain political body double bubble -- I'm not sure that that just got to pass the smell test either with a vote is I think the voters are just gonna say -- and nothing they do with the state house passes the smell test.

straight proved true. News new ball --

Drives because -- He's gonna try to drive to speak at the Leo crazy today with amendments and debate and observation some of which you and I've kicked around -- crashes -- already minority leader Harry. House Republicans in the house and senate I think he would have to to the best of their ability and they can be they can be. Well Brad I'll tell you I hope you have and a shower in your process. I do I good because you must feel like you.

You that I don't you go to W that but there are lining up --

worried about the dirty water our guest but it would be good and then what cleanse yourself during the day after some of these economist what's gonna happen did it just felt that concrete -- What are you guys gonna do to hold off this rampage on the part of Democrat is -- what I.

You honestly we don't we don't have a great wolf the Senate has but that we -- I think to a question ready to -- and -- I know procedural corners than if you look back at 2004. You know we've cut corners like you wouldn't believe in order to get this through. You know we have basically two day period throughout the Senate so that they. So the governor couldn't go to your profession.

Okay showcase -- there was a calendar issue and so okay now. We're just thinking yeah. I'd be happy to call and -- adkins has been nothing but painful memory that you do you have. The ability to another without an issue before we. What breaking Giuliani was hardball on this thing to force it through despite his. Portrayal of himself as an innocent victim who portrayed herself as an -- did say that notice that I. I -- nor does he.

Wouldn't he could not eating up a trip offered -- an innocent victim and -- suffered very willing co conspirator in this. Let's not -- after the principal but any missed each router ready to say -- an agreement that. He hadn't -- morning the western possibly -- And you know he would about it and how well one or let them know that.

I I had no Jihad Feinberg as well badly then as I know now he would have been on the short list of what is at the the governor. -- we can avoid all this nonsense. My people don't wanna go on this but if -- of the wall the Democrats obviously -- mellow and nice way to say that if only the governor -- and I tell them not. Well so what I told him that's what I ask don't like it was.

Asked if you that's what did you ever -- out on not like I would -- chop the head off the horse you put in the bed and you ask you we have gone yeah. Exactly I thought that's what's gonna -- you know I think that the governor -- and I think even a remote -- you for months. Good line I think that --

These and after you look at that -- then -- game early and let you sign off on it not like it's a point one want yes now that's not that. When it situation out everything we fed might happen. That happened we were contemplating the bigotry don't have a intrigued now in the game because Washington wanted to do what I can't go out.

Now well obviously. -- do you think they're at least cutting a good deal for the state is a -- they're gonna be extra billion dollars in stimulus aid or something like that.

I have -- I know maybe this should the price to pay that money we are out. I don't know I don't know what it'll have been cut. I know people have been pressured people have been -- two people and coaxed cajoled.

Eat bread and you lot of brilliant final leader out there and I'm getting a colleague after the same party if I did David Axelrod who remove the the hell was he never ran for any office he doesn't know what I did to get to this wonderful throw the public sacrifice I've made as a public servant to get to where I am I've got some clown from the White House call me tell me -- well. I would say him stroke and -- screwed up.

You're not exactly. All of the Obama family did not call.

You branded I'm gonna. I think there are going to be bipartisan so is this something people can do Brad is there -- meeting going on the you want us to all our.

How it worked -- of people opposed to the opposition but I'm sure there are lot of Democrat.

Who who I've spent for the want to try to do like to host greeted like who. If people like he had that Chattanooga actually mode in not one -- voted no on the committee yesterday. I mean yeah yeah senator wants any -- it would -- I would repeat -- what are disagree on this could actually get into the perception. Speaking you know and I'll watch just about themselves so -- and the public.

They're afraid of data out there the public at night it took a look at that look at the election results on the you know I. Korea finished epitome -- that followed. It wants a state rep rep.

It's almost every incumbent mayor English that's important for.

Outlook and now you well. Unsuited don't think electorate is upset yeah every incumbent should be concerned about that an -- that but more important principle. -- I'm sure of John that is what to what we're doing.

About it is widely I don't evolution to a change you -- do at -- because they want to I can't and that's the end of.

I this nicely put -- I think Brad let me push back a little bit on the matter -- okay the politics a -- I -- its -- analyze your -- on the merits. You're gonna have an interim appointee for a couple of months so constituent services can continue one and two if serious meaningful votes come out that would Massachusetts interest are going to be affected you have the two voices too which were constitutionally entitled rather than one. How do you respond to that because I mean it was you would be a party we rejected -- that was done out. You can just noticed you're darn right.

Respond to a back saying well I I don't know why you know what it.

And then in 2006 we try to get try to get -- yeah. And it -- reelection opened eight we said weeks they're at that point you've -- about a 170 tried vacancies in the US shout out your gonna I think should now.

184 vacancies in the US --

I would responded the following that I appreciate it merits the accurate idea actually -- and now the changing the rules which strain.

On something you know -- political source under the -- on -- I think you're what one principle I I think we representation.

A lot of well I think it is at least equally if not more important principle. About changing the rules -- stream and that we saw Leo it's gotta be oppression of the same party.

Person was elected an election true what would you go to yeah.

Does the president have to be well you call this credit they thought it won't change registration and reporting anyway.

Is unconstitutional anyway isn't. -- have a provision similar to that -- for state Wyoming Utah and and I think Arizona.

Pressure to Wyoming the democratic governor pat -- republic and then he would give it would still actually -- names like Republican committee. I'm sure you're doing it's been -- and struck down on knowledge making -- partisan and do it in your registration here in Massachusetts which problematic.

Let's say some phone calls were quickly is -- something we can do to mobilize people some action they could take it I don't. How do you leverage the Democrats to try to find something in their hearts actually cares about the state of Massachusetts instead of their sleazy politics.

I think first -- called the legislature and they have to make it completely you know. -- legislator is that some golf center institute without me get this sport and caught up Pinochet with eleven caller after a legislator. And they should back you know could volume matters in this business until caught misty it'll tell you that you know --

I never call dial right now 61772. To 2000. And asks his speech hearsay representative and scream at them as loud as you can they you -- want this law -- do just ordered up. And you'll remember out of all right Mike you're on the air with Brad Jones who is the minority leader of the house or representatives in the house of ill repute good mornings -- night.

They showed a lot gonna it was bought cookie back on course.

I'm glad you're enjoying cozy -- Mike I'm glad you recognized his contribution.

I really doing -- don't think Brad. You know I admire your courage. Leo oration is full of Persian. -- by the people's. Why here. These people this -- and there's one other person that's even worse C worst despicable my right. And that's before -- speak -- of accomplishment of this sick guys are city guys grow up. On the streets of data Palin. You know any struggle again any gave a wicket when he saw some. Our leash he should speak up why does an eight give us the real truth because he was just because he was inside guide published from -- perverted -- an -- It is don't give big kid up. Back in trying to defend -- com. --

I hail -- might consider about seventy times today in about a 170 -- we did have for all the wrong reasons. But we ended up with in my opinion. The right result I think -- amendment to do the interim thing was problem and I became persuaded a little late that's all I became frequent like this politics Jumbo.

I thought they Tiffany always comes when he can't do anything about half I good morning I'm probably argue -- Brad Jones read I had eight jettisoned every skill guys and he positioned us would nicely Baghdad's. And his position on -- nicely today that's what I'm ready it and I don't. I keep at it I know you don't EI -- your memory is pro digits. Yeah Brian knew that hey Brian what's going on.

Good morning now Leo great. What if one question actually are exactly appointment. Is that do they get out chairmanship but he's -- your body. And I mean losing an opportunity to have a senior Gilmore being -- senator. Then what I would stay. As there.

All in the US sentiment. And while but this guy wouldn't have continuity this time he will in the future but I'm. Ready that's true you if in the future when that guy will be able to run this time that won't happen presumably good question -- he will have and I just.

Video watch under real law before confidentially to collapse beneficiary of corporate John Kerry.

received so the united Bailey and John Kerry can be applied getting get a date seniority.

Under the old law.

Even my oil -- and didn't wanna have to change a -- he was just caught in a wave that. He couldn't swim out of there was a strong current that in the rip tide yeah I think it should be sort -- says an incredible thing all right. Brad thank you for joining us appreciate your help -- this we're gonna contract.

It I would just how they've got to do what they want still open sour I was -- dot -- I was GOP dot com mass house GOP Dolly OT dot com and out what is going to.

Call your legislators today at least thirty times 61772. To 2000. And tell him your mad as hell you're not gonna take -- you're sick of this crap. That they are thrown onto the people of Massachusetts asked them why is David Axelrod and Barack Obama more important than a.

More from Jones news traffic and weather we've got those stories behind it all and or -- she we are Boston's Paul Fisher hey.
