Getting nervous? Part II
Hub Blog no sooner writes off Tim Cahill in the post below – and then, sure enough, Cahill pulls a rabbit out of the hat. … One poster at Red Mass Group is ecstatic by Cahill’s possible choice of Paul Loscorro as his running mate:
Update -- Peter Porcupine noticed a big boo-boo in my post immediately below, i.e. originally calling it the "Baker-Coakley'' poll. I've since fixed it. PP adds:

Fellow RedMassGroup-ers, this is a ticket that this strong Republican and conservative would consider crossing parties for. If the Republican party's going back to the Country Club as it seems with Baker and Tisei, I'm not going with it.Massachusetts Republicans: Always finding a way to blow it. ...

... Baker isn't the gubernatorial nominee yet. Christy Mihos is running strong in the primary, and Baker is merely the chosen candidate of the Boston Globe which is not always the best path for a Republican candidate.
In some ways, the emphasis on Baker reminds me of the Palin announcement. Media talking heads had their 'informed' speculation on Romney, Pawlenty, et al, ready to roll the moment the choice for Vice President was made. And McCain chose...somebody DIFFERENT! Who IS this woman? Do we KNOW anybody in Alaska? Is there an affiliate there??? How can we appear omniscient???
