The Dark Side of Medford Politics

    We get all sorts of interesting mail at the P.O. Box, stuff about the varsity coach, the lacrosse player, clerk Burke, Ed Finn - it would take a team of private investigators to go through the pile.  

    I used to send the correspondence to JJ McLean after xeroxing it, you can check with the Chief Leo A. Sacco Jr. Library with a public records request to read some of the stuff, other materials I keep in a storage unit under lock and key.

    But with all the tipsters telling us about Karyn Polito and Mrs. Burke (how can a supposed Democrat trust a Republican in this climate? Think about it. ) And how close Mrs. Burke thinks she is to Karyn Polito - to the logical mind it is pure subterfuge, and with Polito in a stronger position than Burke, the subterfuge is on the pawn Medford mayor...and you know where pawns go - to the front lines first to take the heat and get knocked off to preserve the more powerful politician!

   Clueless Muccini-Burke is out of her depth, and even Mike Sullivan is getting shortchanged in this negotiation, our spies tell us!
