Does Frank Baker have any redeeming qualities, or is “I’m a cranky asshole” his whole thing?

(My impression is that that’s it. https://www.universalhub.com/2021/frank-baker-man-few-words-and-some-tho...)

Elliot - Are you going to make fun of Boston accents again?

You are such a piece of wormfood thinking that you are somehow intellectually superior to someone who speaks the way that the overwhelming majority of people around here accentuate their speech.

Go back to whatevah (see?) flyover town that rejected you and get pushed into a locker again.

Perhaps there are now more people living in Boston that think saying "fuck them" to their fellow city councilors isn't a good thing?

Sometimes it is ok to say "fuck them" to your opponents.

We have one city councilor outwardly praising Ho Chi Mihn in the past few weeks. That gets the appropriate response.

It is a political discourse where some twerp from Missouri calls people racist because you don't agree with their stance on Question One or makes fun of your accent. That gets the appropriate response.

Manners are one thing. Hypocrisy and / or not having the ability to confront the city's problems are another.

The Ward 3 or 8 Democratic Committees are not Boston as a whole. Never forget that.

What's wrong with Ho Chi Minh? He was a Boston resident long before you were.

Whew, Costello! You DID NOT like being called out for your sympathy for that ghoul Darragh, did you?!

Now if I was a real Bostonian I’d get butthurt and accuse you of being classist and anti-white racist for calling me a midwesterner… but I’m from DC and don’t have a wretched, crippling inferiority complex.

He's in his 6th term in office.

But let's talk about you. "Any redeeming qualities?" That line itself is an example of what is wrong with political discourse in this country. I hate my Member of Congress, mainly because of her narcissistic grandstanding, but at the end of the day I'll admit that she is trying to do what she thinks is the best for the district. Everyone has redeeming qualities. That you think otherwise reflects on you.

Duchin said their five maps have more similarities than differences.

That sounds like a very polite way to say all their maps is a prime example of gerrymandering.
