Look to the northwest to -- a tough tough tough tough fight literature that was fun -- data Murray editor and two governors to governor yes governor Sununu former governor Sununu and -- and former governor Romney but nonetheless the the title he won. Man there who used to run the country. Johnson. He was President Bush the elder President Bush personable. Prison former chief of staff I mean that's you know it's like the GM of the congress and he's a very conversational guy very approachable guy you feel you feel very comfortable Johnson and how he's gonna join us -- a fairly regular day I just an idea he knows the show has great reach up -- Hampshire lot of credibility and and he's involved in a high stakes I game Republican against Democrat he wants to change. New Hampshire from its relatively recent. He'll lose their lose have -- I got four year enterprise he I think he wants to make it not just a red state but almost like our kind of crimson drew immediate -- confidence gone backed her not the you don't have to use all that code. It's gonna they're Republican controlled state once again. William Lowe will be Carter all a lot of Australian -- writing he'll be editorials on the front page the kilometer exclusive the governor wants kept us right. The other Manchester union leader was so very excited about is getting a briefing from Aman who's gonna win you trades and it's it's very interest he's he's -- hands on guys are very knowledgeable guy who's very gracious with Laura -- she was on a game last night. Mitt was fine as always gracious and we're talking about Amanda -- last night at The W. Hotel for lowering your mom's in town and there was are launching her new book. For the Boston reader guy and now he's number one she says on Amazon was just pretty cool that's pretty cool and and you know I think the radio listeners who. Right I think looked to me you -- panic inside information and maybe it just. -- knowledge and relevance will be pleased to hear that between each parked about a half mile away from the -- capital and it turned out that Todd night. Literally about -- are confused to correlate -- blocks away you know we're supposed to be -- Bostonians who know our way around structures and oh by the way crooks you're -- talked quite a bit what's he finds -- great control I've no idea oppose a Cox. Well Patrick Kennedy is calling again this early. And.

It's. Good morning congressman. From wired god I know why you're calling so early -- know why -- beside yourself there's strong batters let Jennifer I'm very very narrow and -- that my dad -- and I happen to good pictures to articulate exactly how bad it's bad quashed. Would anyone really. Hey Ali -- a story like that dire scenario and how we get out -- like that bomb on many do yeah. They go right down to local time. Don't look upload Donald Trott. OK okay I usually congress ought -- that our games and -- the I'm the amnesia sits right and that's what really. Yes that's right and -- accidentally. My mantra what do you think you're the Finneran funnel in the headline double talk radio and walk out of pocket radio I appreciate the road that's the -- I I yeah. Complimentary actually keep saw a lot of the special headlines that don't involve me over the years of this we keep his gut. My closet that ran the Philadelphia overall but a fun idea it is this one's worthy of framing national. Yeah I'm not wanted. Bad radio doesn't endorse just does -- mean the -- we are we're not -- all of.

Absolutely -- my current drought -- it's great for us so look at the WR we unloaded or is that I think he must take a master in the debate this may actually have a necktie on the whole thing on on the mainland right. Yeah yeah always say you're is -- your weak side. Hot hot hot hot miss an election Tommy thanks -- talks about the what do you read this story it's not enough was enough. He's ran some good money floated different when you guys saw us whereas that out. -- the matter at hand Democrats and lobbying firm Finneran global strategies this place name he'd 170000. Dollars this year. When did that I want. 087. Will not happen. I can't see how well I -- they had -- I pass up a water are -- why are not only would have been like -- about the restaurant. The count five do you think they're not paying me well let's. I -- how -- pickup trucks the only way this 87000. This year according to newly released records ever and you -- formal 45 an hour -- to a mother my life I've -- support news and today showed up. That's when he 2000 also on the Boston Police but doesn't say where you're getting on this auto thing the right to repair bill so the problem is that this the most stupid story. Ha ha ha ha. I mean it's okay that they wrote it but. In a little more now that say this deserves a little box -- Finneran makes money lobbying job that's big news -- a surprise. Mr. when they go front -- what they're selectively cause you line rent a commercial. During the debate yes for that the debate is being sponsored by SP a lot and that is my decision I haven't read it that's right there was a coalition to repair you know if I could find Todd and extended -- every -- can handle it you weren't fully informed as Tom had disclosed are really now we found the root of the story. You didn't do their disclosure look at they exit yeah of course you know anyone I have reread the commercial know what you're -- comment there -- red -- The fact -- there would have been a conflict of interest if you might not disclosed no if there was. Content in the bowl absolutely that had some relevance all of this column.

Call in and said to one of the you the candidates as you know what your position on that bill I would've said -- oh by the way before anybody comments you should know. I'm registered to -- to advocate on and one on one side of the -- and has been a different suggestions somebody in politics is involved in conflict of interest is cells are -- sell -- its battery done this hardly worthy of front pledge right that's Michelle lobbyists. I can read this well can you imagine. Coach's dream come true of course you were asked talked quite a bit last night time night had a kind of a standard line that you have. Suspended some time with the parole -- a -- thought I was your -- there weren't.

Another -- over the microphone that. There could be.

Tommie Liddell Steve's son who -- them. You'll enjoy as a course I think. No one of their best. This is upload. Let's hear it.

And yeah. Oh yeah.

Total. That's a Tommy -- is lobbying theme song -- So it was when you go to your website does that play firm -- not kind of response -- place you wanna go door to a the -- dislocated my new business what I guess streak that's hot hot hot and how good Harold. And they don't show a photo of your -- in LA -- named -- who did you get that another global strategist Robert -- one just looks school bolster revenues. You like that and I had this -- in fact I -- o'clock it's like that's going to be easy but I. Either the governor of by the NF. Out ha -- yeah if you're saying this is not a contract -- up the volume -- out. How. A couple of new great line -- C has all uncanny sense of how power works goes on to the Korea absolutely. --

If you already know well you know we know -- is from land and there's a story from lynch story I think is is no worthy. While seventy pink slipped. School department employees worry about possible layoffs and every department at City Hall is getting by with less. City Council president Timothy fail in his -- spending spree then but in the city it was really kind of is ours is openly and yeah Democrats since his reelection in November fail and has moved into spacious quarters on the fourth -- City Hall. And spent thousands of taxpayer dollars on pet projects to preserve and frame. Historic paintings and photographs mostly of former -- this is certainly questionable. Durden during this economy. To be sending this kind of signal. A review of public expenditures from the film is busy writing checks for custom built display cases in picture frames doling out tickets to local entertainment shows. And making four figure donations to charitable events -- using city money -- yeah there.

This strikes me look very bizarre and a chance Irina.

Yeah -- Only time you hunch -- Palin -- think I'm gonna buy tickets -- everybody to the point.

Meanwhile mr. Judith is about his plan allegation that those -- with city it's as opposed to his campaign fund personal photos. Why. Buying picture frames figured heavily among failing to purchase orders. Starting December 1 of last year he ordered 17100 all sorts of frames and mats for the City Council office. That's started a -- of 2700 dollars and less than three months. From I did it myself frame shop on Louis street. Who doesn't sound like he did themselves a 2700 miles of sorry let's get onto the -- it's in the in the largest sense by the way he is its right to have some type of from. -- Policy. For the protection preservation of archives and photographs documents all those things. To have waited so why I'm not sure that when there was ever in good good times but obviously these -- very difficult times pretty city a town. To wait in the to do it in the midst of cutbacks what everybody else including teachers and police and try to credits. That seems a little bit of his. A very poor timing and perhaps fourth and perhaps what judgment I'm trying to find where the took apart his folks who have never Chancery this. The first page tickets tickets tickets tickets to what tickets to life. Michael Jackson tribute concert I UCL a ridiculous use serious. Serious -- as a judge you've got a lot of explaining to do. And they both of the names I recognize we're gonna tell you know. While doesn't the mayor have a role of the rest of the City Council let me City Council president are all afraid of -- national wind. They're afraid of him course they are City Council president Martha Weston be afraid it's like when people are afraid of -- does nothing to be afraid of -- You're doesn't -- out of your elected by your colleagues if they lose if they lose confidence in you judgment guess what you're up the next day. That doesn't the next day if you have bad judgment are talking about how -- all -- the next are you serious some serious.

my logic you've got to you don't pay attention we'll give a C apple -- so much residing offices of those were live right on the edge of the seat what are you kidding me the minute they politics are sure they don't socialism examples of those who have been wiped out instantly. To be people Don and congress so over the years to be people Massachusetts currency -- emotion. Motion to vacate the chair is what it's golf. He knew immediately go to an election for new presiding officer senate president Toro or speaker if he spent 412. Dollars and fifty cents on November 23. For tickets to the bill Cosby's comedy show at City Hall which he ended up donating. That practice was repeated on June 15 when he bought tickets to the Michael Jackson tribute concert. And gave them to the Tracy elementary school principal to distribute to students and families unable to afford them. This is the City Council. Chief in England Holland with public my bookmark that's the donation to the church is June torn out -- as a -- doesn't pass on June 20 spray donated 500 dollars. To the saint Pius parish endowment fund. As a gift from the -- City Council fail once children. Attend I'm sure she coaxed you know there's tournament this still could get a money yet. I get a lot yeah I mean just a -- cancer XY and I'd -- honestly in Candice because you never know how slanted a newspaper story might be in for what purpose so what they might have gone wrong for I mean it it could be this -- that's -- is this campaign money that he was using personal -- notorious this is all city call 800 discretionary. He's got 93000 dollars -- discretionary fund under Massachusetts general why you can't give money or property to wear religious institution -- is a public purpose and he would say the public purposes. Making kids feel that our guests. While -- this as you know you just can't happen if shine a bright enough flight -- more government people -- doing. The mayor also has a it is called -- otherwise unclassified account okay I wish I guess means slush fund -- or using for bribes for. For so potential votes -- silly stuff down. Are you appalled by Leo well the a Lois as I said earlier I think it's important I think every city a town include. Obviously the state government itself should have they had been sent us this what are -- never have should have no policy about the protection of its. Archives it's documents including its photographs do fallout setting a new poll out guess who Barack Obama beats. I myself let's see a hypothetical match up let's -- I can do justice to this is there anyone he'd be I'll tell you who -- who loses to in -- hypothetical -- I don't know what is our rob Dewey beats OK he beats poses a shorter -- Sarah Palin. No it's a tie with Sarah Palin okay I need beats Julianne rich jamboree literally the.

six. If he loses. Two might have Mitt Romney Mike Huckabee. Newt Gingrich. Sarah Palin is a dead heat -- he he would beat Jim brewer right now. -- Charles Krauthammer has a column today in you should feel. 100%. Vindication. Validation of your point that Barack Obama. Doesn't could care less about the mid terms. Indeed wants that congress to go Republican for the polarization your -- Krauthammer Krauthammer calls actually says. He bought about Barack Obama that you underestimate American Apparel politically he's very clever very cute. And that essentially he is looking for the Clinton vs Gingrich dynamic that we serve in the mid nineties to replay itself so he can be -- in in.

Paul Larry I. WRKO. Do you want a break okay. Focus on the phone can't go to break that he -- ordered pizza can -- you know stretch vaguely discretionary but -- flat out -- 93 prayer that China might attempt failed and got no -- that's good and I recognize that -- a break four minutes ago it's not well not really is that kids put in -- real breakthrough PG all of us -- have -- usual. Cabrera. Now outside that bigoted SO Krauthammer it's really it's a fascinating column in --

The minute you walk out.

Now you're right I could lead to a tremendous strides Saigon Jack Kelly slash right now -- six ANWR yeah.
