He said he wouldn't raise taxes and he didn't. He also raised certain fees in the state. My kennel license went from $25 a year to $35. No big deal. I've found him to be a man who follows through with his promises. He also cut back on welfare so it was consistant with the other states. I'd vote for him in 2008 but I'm not sure he'd get the nod. He has a tendency to say exactly what he thinks and while I admire that, others don't always.

Yes I know how blue Mass is which is why I posed the question. I think he has all the tools to be a strong player for the republicans. However even if he managed to get nominated its unlikely he would carry his home state.
