How Do You Say Flip Flop in Charlie Baker's World?

| No Comments

So we have already discussed how, in Charlie Baker's World, sometimes Charlie says one thing and means another. Well here is another one for the flip flop files. This one at the same time!

First, at around 12:30 Charlie Tweeted:

Misplaced priorities by unions have never been more clear than in Bridgewater/Raynham http://bit.ly/97IAml #magov #mapoli #ma

Then, five minutes later, we see this on Boston.com:

Charles D. Baker, the Republican candidate for governor, who has criticized unions as special interests that block reforms and waste taxpayer money, has quietly accepted his first union endorsement.

Baker did not hold any media event or release any statement upon recieving the backing of the State Police Association, which has a history of supporting Republicans for governor. The union endorsed Kerry Healey over Patrick in 2006, and Mitt Romney over Shannon P. O'Brien in 2002.

Not sure what this looks like inside Charlie Baker's World. But out here it sounds like another backroom deal to us.

Welcome to Charlie Baker's World

Welcome to Charlie Baker's world: a tongue-in-cheek look at a special place where Charlie Baker can use "facts" that aren't true; a place where, when things don't go well, it isn't his fault or he wasn't involved; a place where anything might happen.
