So much for the power of Pat Jehlen and the "progressives"!

i wonder what will happen this fall. should be interesting.

Susan Passoni lost and so did Marty, I think its safe to say that old Massachusetts is back. I for one can't wait to take a walk through Davis Square and see all the smug yuppie socialists wipe the grin of their face. Now our leaders can get back to taking bribes for city services which to be honest is better then the "Proggressives" who complain all day and brag about how great they are even though they seem to accomplish nothing. Anyways guys please move back to NY or where every else these people came from.

[Some Ole Villen]

The Mayor and his boys did quietly shhh! support Jack. I don't think he wants the progressives to know shhhhh!
Are they going to give the Mayor a free ride, again. Bill White has backed the wrong horse. Is White going to run now that he has gone from Republican to Progressive in a little over a year? The Progressives will be licking their wounds for awhile. It proves that even the Jehlen magic can't slip a bad candidate past Old Somerville.

What I want to know is how many people were left working in City Hall and DPW today? Pretty impressive seeing our city's finest out doing Jack's.. oops, I mean the people's business.

So am I right in hearing peoples' livelihoods and jobs were on the line if they didn't get in line and work for Jack? Seems like the Mayor may have pushed it a little too far today with a few people who don't like being told whose campaign to support.. uh oh, tick tock tick tock..

[don't be a dimwit]

Hey George, there were some city workers out there today helping Marty out as well.nothing wrong in that as long as its and official day off. Face it baby Marty lost and its over for him.

I finally received my going-away gift from Somerville! Congrats Jack!

thanks jack and all you city workers who took the day off. your the best.

Dear George;

it was even more impressive seeing our State Senator picking up little ole ladies and bringing them to vote as well as our State Representative holding a campaign sign alongside Mr. Martinez....both doing during working hours for most of us on the planet! - especially the working class families of the city that our esteemed officials pledge to work for and support:>)

I'm surprised George that your not impressed with the respect that our fine members of the DPW have for civic duty:>)

Slan go fail

News flash! The "Welcome to Somerville" signs on either ends of Broadway are being replaced with "Welcome to Somerville; Where the Liberals are FINISHED!"

[Grog29]

Don't quit the day job Marty!

OOPS! Too late.

[Dominic Santos]

Ed:

This election shouldn't be viewed as a sign that the liberals are finished. Rather, it should be interpreted as a sign that Somerville residents do not want progressive or conservative extremism to be running City Hall. Rather, Somerville residents want candidates that embrace moderate positions (most likely moderate positions from Democrat platform). The MS-13 Marty ad sent out by Jack likely brought the progressive extremism to light for many voters.

Liberals and conservatives deserve a seat at the table, but where either side seeks to dismiss the views of the other without considering their merit, Somerville residents will pull chair from under that view.

[give me a break]

one two three strikes your out at the old ball game..bye bye Marty

[thenoseknows]
