This is massively frustrating. Baker's rollout of the COVID-19 vaccine has been abysmal, and yet his approval rating is going up.

Glorious

[Okay, maybe Mike Johnson is a competent parliamentarian.]

Absolutely ridiculous given his feckless COVID "leadership" and the disastrous consequences that his longer-term slashing of social services budgets has had since the pandemic began. Massachusetts voters are at least as birdbrained about nice FCBSL moderate Republican governors as New York voters are about brash asshole corrupt Democratic governors, maybe more so.

See? See how powerful Republicans could be if they were sane?
