Charlie Baker's new ad says he will fire 5000 state employers and

get the government pension plans under control. For someone who is running a campaign that too many jobs have been lost in Massachusetts, firing 5000 sounds like he could care less about jobs. So Charlie, who are the 5000? Will the media ask who can expect to lose their jobs? For a guy who has so little regard for state workers, why does he want to beone? And about the pension plans? Good luck. Those were all negotiated with unions and for the most part can't be altered. Will the media ask him about this. Charlie Baker is a fraud.

1. I can't understand why he is trying so hard to piss off union workers.

We have quite a few in this state, yet he is vilifying all of them in that ad.

2. because he's a Repug

and to be a Repug is to hate unions.

3. Very True.

He's an idiot.

When a candidate says he will fire you, your co-workers, your uncle, your father, he loses 10 votes.

Republicans don't CARE!!! They are the fools who are richer than most of us.

4. He also says he will repeal Patrick's tax hikes.

He's going to need cooperation from Bob Deleo and Therese Murray to do that. They'll be having snowball fights in Hell before that happens.

5. I noticed that. First thing he talks about is firing 5000 people.

That would be 5000 more people collecting unemployment.
