THE ILLS OF ONE-PARTY RULE
SCOTT BROWN is quite right that one-party rule by Democrats in Massachusetts causes problems for the state. The Republican Party could make itself part of the solution by nominating candidates to office whom residents would like to vote for.
When residents weigh the damage caused by one-party rule with the potential damage of voting for a Republican candidate whose ideas of governance would be even more damaging, they are forced to choose the lesser of the two evils.
One would think it wouldn’t be too hard to find nominees who would represent a lesser evil than some of our corrupt office holders. If the Republicans cannot find the way, perhaps another party will come along that can.
