Mass. primary endorsements
In the lieutenant governor's race, which has little power over GLBT issues, we would be happy with any candidate, really. Tim Murray, Andrea Silber and Deb Goldberg are all great on GLBT issues. But if we have to choose, we'll have to endorse Deb Goldberg. Goldberg clearly supports GLBT rights, even going so far as to be the only lieutenant governor candidate to show up for the Massachusetts Lesbian and Gay Political Caucus endorsement sessions.read more>

Lt. Gov. touts comprehensive plan
Deborah Goldberg, a candidate for lieutenant governor, said investing in public higher education is the best way to expand the states faltering economy and create jobs.

No one is investing in our skilled work force, said Goldberg, who made a campaign stop at the Jockey Club restaurant last night. Theyre our greatest asset. In the state college, university and community college system, about 85 percent of the graduates stay and work in Massachusetts.read more>

Pressing the flesh - Patrick; Goldberg get Caucus endorsements
After the buzz about a showdown between rival supporters of the Democratic gubernatorial candidates at the Aug. 29 endorsement meeting of the Massachusetts Gay and Lesbian Political Caucus — missives promising a “barnburner” and pleas for Deval Patrick supporters to renew their Caucus memberships and get to the meeting because “other candidates are making a serious play for the endorsement” — we eagerly anticipated a front-row seat for the fracas. read more>

Pressing the flesh
Goldberg’s personal touch
When she began her campaign for lieutenant governor two years ago, Deb Goldberg just assumed that five weeks away from the Sept. 19 Democratic primary she’d be "exhausted and strung out." But rather than feeling beat down by the rigors of campaigning as the three-way race heads into the home stretch, Goldberg, the former chair of the Brookline Board of Selectman, says, "I understand how great the stakes are. And it catapults me out of bed every single day."read more>

Permission isn't needed
This is how politics in Massachusetts is supposed to work, with people choosing, not politicians anointing. Orderly deliberations at Democratic caucuses across the state yesterday underscored the ineptitude Attorney General Thomas F. Reilly displayed by trying to usurp voters' right to decide for themselves the best candidate for lieutenant governor.

Deb Goldberg did not ask anyone's permission to run when she began to lay the groundwork for her campaign for lieutenant governor more than a year ago. The former chairwoman of the Board of Selectmen in Brookline, Goldberg waded into the caucus here, the first of half a dozen she planned to attend, greeting old friends and marshaling support. read more>
