In reaction to the Globe's Joan Vennochi's claim that Deval is too liberal to get elected, MFW puts a slightly oversimplified table before the viewer. It's a definite hmmmm producer.
From here, Reilly is pretty Republican and too cowardly to put out positions yet. Deval has a lot of ways to differentiate himself. Take Wilcox' first go:
| Death Penalty | Romney FOR | Reilly FOR | Patrick AGAINST |
| Lowering Income Tax Rate | Romney FOR | Reilly FOR | Democratic Legislators AGAINST |
| Cape Wind Project | Romney AGAINST | Reilly AGAINST | Patrick FOR |
| Equal Marriage | Romney AGAINST | Reilly AGAINST | Patrick FOR |
| Continuing in Iraq | Neocons FOR | Reilly FOR | Patrick AGAINST |
Deval's mountain man concludes:
Right now, Deval Patrick's biggest challenge is name recognition, but if he can get his face (and his message) in front of enough voters between now and next September, I think we will see an end to the myth that being liberal is somehow "veering left" in Massachusetts.
