Deval Patrick turning into Dukakis II

According to the great Howie Carr.

Deval Patrick has become Michael Dukakis - shrimp wrapped in baloney.

That’s how we used to describe the Duke - and the description surely fits Deval. The only difference is, at least Pee Wee (another of our fond monikers) had that one first term where he was somewhat honorable, if clueless.

Deval has gone directly to Dukakis II - when he was lying down with dogs like Billy Bulger and getting up with more fleas than I have space to mention.

Deval has been drifting south in the polls for months, but he really jumped the shark when he appointed Sen. Marian Walsh to that $175,000 hack sinecure. Marian Walsh! He doesn’t even know how to reward the right hacks - ones who’ll back you up in an alley fight, or at least hold a sign for you. If they ever name a street after Marian, it’ll have to be a one-way.
