Call me biased, but I think Allan Fung and Charlie Baker each has a solid chance of winning their respective governorships.

I admittedly don't know that much about Fung, but Baker could definitely win. The specter of 2009 still looms over her candidacy for me - that's why I'm supporting Kayyem.

Fung is very popular in RI. Probably the only Republican that could have success in Rhode Island at this point.

1. Is it you, who banned me on RMG?)))))

2. Fung needs Avedisian to improve his chances. Despite these elections being separate they could form excellent "unofficial ticket".

No, I don't know what RMG is.

Mark Fisher (candidate for Governor in MA, running for the Republican nomination) spoke to FOX 25 Boston last night. I supported him originally, but he doesn't seem overly knowledgable on the issues, and dodged some questions from the reporter. I am supporting Charlie Baker for Governor, because I believe he is our best chance to win.

I thought this was an interesting article, portraying the political climate in Massachusetts.

I thought this was an interesting article, portraying the political climate in Massachusetts.

Tea-party idiots happen everywhere, even in the most liberal states like Massachusetts. An examples - many on RMG, i mentioned couple of times: despite utter impossibility of winning anything substantial (above state legislative seats, and even them - not so many) for their beloved far-rightists, the only answer you get from them is "I will not vote for such and such RINO, i want a genuine conservative". They don't care that such conservative absolutely can't win s statewide or Congressional race in the state. Usually, in such cases i end all talk with an advice: "Move to Oklahoma!!"

This.

I may be bias, but Baker is seeing a ton of momentum in Massachusetts. Hopefully it continues

Baker is rather good candidate, but Massachusetts is too Democratic and too liberal simultaneously for him to win barring Democratic candidate gaffes. But, this Democratic candidate being (probably) Coakley - everything is possible...

I don't think Coakley is a good candidate, she is a disaster in my opinion.
