Former Massachusetts Democrat Governor DEVAL PATRICK enters the Race !

[CaseHardened]

FIRST OF ALL: Donald Trump is the best president of my lifetime. Bar none. I voted for President Trump once, and will again.

still...

No, although I have lived in Massachusetts all my life, I never voted for Deval Patrick.

Though I did vote for both Republican Mitt Romney and Republican Charlie Baker for Governor.

My reward ?

Romney signs off on permanent assault weapons ban

BREAKING: Massachusetts Attorney General Bans Sales of All New "Assault Weapons" As of Today - The Truth About Guns

After the usual “assault rifles” are “weapon of war” used by “mass murderers” anti-AR agitprop, Massachusetts Attorney General Maura Healey dropped this bombshell at The Boston Globe. The Massachusetts assault weapons ban mirrors the federal ban Congress allowed to expire in 2004. It prohibits...

And as bad as Governor Romney was in signing an AR Ban, Charlie Baker simply had his AG ban them without any legislation at all !

Then this month Baker banned Vaping by Declaration as well !

Despite his Democrat credentials, Governor Deval Patrick never threatened my 2A rights in Mass. He was no bargain, but kept a pretty low profile. Which is my idea of a "good" Democrat.

So, all things considered, a person could do a lot worse than Deval. I'd vote for him hands-down over RINO Romney or RINO Baker. Over RINO McCain, too.

And other than TULSI, I'd rather have him as the Dem Candidate.

Unless, of course, he begins yapping the Left-Wing idiocy that seems to be that party's de rigueur in 2019.

Deval, my advice ? Just shut up and smile.

Well, his first name is certainly appropriate.

At least judging by his history in Massachusetts, Deval is pretty damn moderate.

Unless he has changed quite a bit, I believe America would be survive (tho not thrive) in his hands.

The clown circus continues. Bloomberg and now this guy. Just waiting for hillary to make it official. It makes me smile knowing these recent announcements give all the "front runners" indigestion.

 

[CaseHardened]

I'm curious to see how Deval's changed.

 

[CaseHardened]

I know, I know.

Standing up for Deval Patrick is certainly a change of pace for me.

But he's largely a pleasant guy.

Do a search for him: unlike Elijah Cummings, Maxine Waters, Kamala Harris, or even Barack Obama (other prominent black politicians), Deval is nearly always smiling and pleasant.

I cannot recall ever physically cringing when he spoke - and he spoke fairly rarely (good).

I even shook his hand at an event in Copley Square, Boston, while he was Governor (I did have to leave my cutlass at the door, tho).

He was very nice - if he gave a speech at all, it was so calm that I cannot recall a word of it.

All in all not a bad guy.

In fact, I can't see him "fitting in" at all with the FREAK SHOW that every Dem Front-Runner is (except for VA-VA-VOOM TULSI), of course).

[CaseHardened]

You know, there was a time when the average Dem was a "Deval".

Hard to believe now, I know.

But look at disgraceful RINOs we've been stuck with.

Romney, Bush, McCain - all far worse than JFK (I know I'm going back pretty far).

Anyhow, Deval is certain to come out with some stupid shit within 48 hours that will force me to regret every positive syllable I've written so far.

Weeeeeeeeee!!!

There's always room in the clown car for one more!!

I'd love to see Deval become the Front Runner, if for no other reason than to piss off those other LOSERS.

And if Deval can keep Hillary or Michelle out of the race, I can rest a bit easier.

 

[Blimey]

I know nothing of him, but my suspicion is that if he's an intelligent, somewhat moderate guy now, he'll lose both of those virtues the second he runs for the presidency.

I think that is highly likely.

Who is a Harvard JD, former governor of MA, and managing director Bain Capital?

Mitt Romney or Deval Patrick...

It seems they're both cut from the same cloth...

Although I'm betting the latter will get a pass on Bain Capital well... just because...

 

[BDinPutnam]

Wow.

I guess "largely pleasant" is the new "credit to his race"?

WTF.

 

[Bigfoot]

Danica Patrick she's our man.
If she can't do it nobody can...

Oh wait, nevermind.
