Words of the moment: 'professional' and 'dispatch'

By Wally Edge
Category: HouseTags: Ray Buckley, Pia Carusone, Kevin Landrigan, Jim Craig, Jeb Bradley, Frontline, DCCC, Carol Shea-PorterTop Story: Opinion

If Carol Shea-Porter has been successful at one thing, it’s getting things done her way. In 2006, she was a big underdog in the primary, yet defeated Jim Craig, the DCCC’s choice in the race. Then in the general glection she was severely under-funded against two-term Congressman Jeb Bradley. Bradley looked to be on his way to an easy re-election, but Shea-Porter did it her way and shocked the world, or at least the 1st Congress
