Oh wait...nevermind... www.boston.com/news/politics/2017/01/26/charlie-baker-says-hell-veto-18m-pay-raise-billBOSTON (AP) — Republican Gov. Charlie Baker vowed Thursday to veto a bill approved by the Democrat-controlled Senate and House that would give nearly $18 million in annual pay raises to top legislators, statewide elected officials and judges.
The Senate and House, however, approved the bill by veto-proof margins.
The Senate voted 31-9 in favor of the legislation earlier Thursday, a day after the House approved the measure by a 115-44 vote. A handful of Democrats joined Republicans in both chambers in opposing the bill. |

The voters in this state are deaf, dumb, and blind, and get everything they deserve.
Ex: look at the 2 senators from this state representing us in Washington. A useless scumbag liar-idiot, and an ex-ice cream man with convicted criminal family.
And we passed on a guy (Scott Brown), veteran who voted 50% with R's and 50% with D's.......for a dufus-scum-bag-liar.

I also recall that nationally conservatives saw how Scott was voting and declined to help when he came asking for donations. If you're going to be a Democrat, be a Democrat.

Money and support. He got both in spades during the special, hardly any at all in the general.

We are not the only ones who passed on Scott Brown. After he lost the regular senate election, he moved to New Hampshire and ran for senate there. In 2014 he lost that election to Sen. Jeanne Shaeen. So the good people of New Hampshire also passed on Scott Brown. And of course he interviewed to head the Department of Veteran Affairs with Trump. Trump passed on Scott Brown as well. As for who we have in office, if you do not like who represents you, then get a clipboard and collect some signatures and run for something in your hometown. That is what the Tea Party did all over the place a few years ago. Also, as for who we have now in MA, that is our democracy. The majority of our country did not vote for Trump but he is our president. That is the way it works. As for Sen. Warren, she is up for re-election in 2018. If you do not want her to be re-elected then volunteer for whoever runs against her. Thanks for the re-cap
The majority of LEGAL voters did vote for Trump. You will see that (in real news) in the coming months. Without ILLEGALS in New York city (not all of NY) and ILLEGALS in Los Angeles (not all of California), Trump won electorally and popularly. Scary that you could post on a political message board and still not get that.
Brown losing to a filthy scum like Warren only proves how INSANE Massachusetts voters are. And then to go to his wife's home state, his home for more than 30 years, and lose to a dope like Shaheen, only shows how stupid NH is on a national stage.
Brown will definitely surface in a Trump administration and do great things.
