Who's Fighting For Who?
"If you liked Sen. Rauschenbach, You'll love Gail Lese." says a recent mailing to registered voters in the Cape & Islands Senate District, by the Mass GOP on behalf of Gail Lese, the Republican challenger to Senator Rob O'Leary. The piece accuses O'Leary of choosing special interests over the voters.
The problem is, Henri Rauschenbach is a registered lobbyist and represents those special interests on Beacon Hill that O'Leary is accused of listening to. Or maybe O'Leary isn't, which is why Rauschenbach is lending his name to Lese.
Very clever piece though. It doesn't actually say that Rauschenbach is backing Lese. With Lou Gonzaga also in the race, he may be keeping his options open.

Funny, the piece indicates that Lese actually voted for the same way as Rauschenbach. Not only is that impossible as a non-legislator, she didn't even live on the Cape when Rauschenbach was a Senator.
There once was a pol named Henri,
Who suited the Cape to a T.
He once worked for clean power,
But now makes Cape Wind cower,
The lad will do anything for a fee.
then by that same logic, if you don't like Henri, you won't like Less, ah, Lese. Come to think of it, there's not a lot to like for either.
