                      It'll be interesting to look back a few years from now and see if what we are witnessing is the birth of the Democratic Party's own version of "the Tea Party." While that helped certain Republicans get elected at certain times, I'm not sure that fracture of the Republican Party has been ideal for it in the long run.
                      That community is already in the process of dissolution where each man begins to eye his neighbor as a possible enemy, where non-conformity with the accepted creed, political as well as religious, is a mark of disaffection; where denunciation, without specification or backing, takes the place of evidence; where orthodoxy chokes freedom of dissent; where faith in the eventual supremacy of reason has become so timid that we dare not enter our convictions in the open lists, to win or lose.

                          Works for me. Capuano checked all the right boxes on issues but he was basically useless. Not sure what he'd done in his 20 years in office. This is a safe Dem seat (don't think there's even a GOP challenger) so lets see what Pressley can do.

                          Weird election night in Mass. Capuano got turfed but a couple of other real old timers (Neal for Congress, Galvin for SoS) who'd been around since the 70's won handily. Dems chose the slightly more moderate nominee for Gov (the guy who lost wanted to re-impose rent control for example) and open House seat but more lefty candidates won some down ballot races. Also Goopers chose lunatic to oppose Elizabeth Warren, but re-nominated ultimate RINO incumbent Gov. Baker instead of Trump Humping challenger. I suspect independents who can choose a ballot in one or the other primaries came out for Baker given the low profile of the two Dems running.
