The random political thoughts thread (Part Deux)

So, I don't know if any of you West Coasters heard about the news from the, you know, important coast, the East Coast...

that part of the Big Dig tunnel collapsed and killed a woman who was a passenger in a car the other day.

I am in agreement with Gov Mitt Romney that the Mass Turnpike Authority Chairman should be axed. I agree 100%. However, and this is a big 'however', I can't help but feel that Romney is using this instance to further his bid for the White House. In fact, all of the politicians here are. They are jumping on the bandwagon and crying foul and saying that 'something must be done'... But I can't help but feel that if this was a non-election year that their sentiments wouldn't be as loud.
