(How do the Greens get to the point where they can field that many State Rep. candidates? It's not just signatures... you need to find 133 people willing to take the leap to put their names forward. And that's no easy task. - promoted by eli_beckerman)
The one thing I can't stand more than Republicans is Republicans in Democratic clothing. We all know them and we all know that they are not good representatives of us. I think it's time for the Green Party in Massachusetts to become the opposition party in Massachusetts.
If the Green Party became a dominant party here in Massachusetts it would not only force the Democratic Party more to the left but maybe even the Republicans.

Then and Now

Then...
We built what history will record is the broadest and best-organized grassroots organization this Commonwealth has ever seen... We didn't build up this grassroots just to win an election. We built up the grassroots to govern in a whole new way, to make change real, and lasting, and meaningful.
Deval Patrick acceptance speech
Nov. 7, 2006
and Now...
We had this incredibly rich relationship that we built with the grass-roots network the last time. And then we got in, and we let it go. And there are reasons for that. But I think it's a terrible thing. We missed it. I missed it personally. And I think a lot of the folks in the organization missed it.
