His memory lapses could be the result of senility.

is he doing so terribly in his home state of Massachusetts? Do the people of MA know something that the rest of us do not know??

Willard had no choice but to be "bipartisan" whenever he was serious about passing something. The Commonwealth's legislature is about 85 percent Democratic. So when he bloviates about "reaching across the aisle" it's only because the handful of legislators standing behind him wouldn't have filled Scott Brown's pickup truck.

is that EVERYONE in Massachusetts hates his guts
(and for very good reason, he was an awful governor!!!)

he faced for four years, on job creation and tax fairness. It will be his last huge audience before they dump an avalanche of negative ads.
