Funny how words come back to haunt you, sometimes.
Running for LG in 2002, Kerry Healey told a reporter for the Boston
Globe about her failed attempt at building the membership of the
Harvard Republican Club.
''I was membership secretary,'' she said, ''and I don't think I was
very successful in increasing membership.''
Fast-forward a few months later to the point where Kerry Healey
knocks Jane Swift around.
The candidates were also asked what Gov. Jane Swift should have done
differently during her administration.
Healey said Swift should've worked harder to strengthen the state
Republican Party.
"We have not devoted enough time to party building. We need two
parties in Massachusetts," Healey said.
If elected, Healey said she'd make it a "priority to restore two-
party government."
Well, it's indisputable. Kerry Healey just can't get the job done.
Kerry Healey and Mitt Romney proved in 2004 that they just don't
have what it takes to get residents to join the Republican ranks
when their $3 million bid for the Legislature blew up in their face.
Now, take a look at the lack of Republican candidates running for
the Legislature this time around. Or how about the fact that there
are virtually no Republicans running statewide?
The Republican Party is in trouble. And it's up to Kerry Healey to
save it?
I'd be worried....
