Where the conflict comes in is the fact that Massachusetts had a law on the books to handle the situation of selecting a replacement Senator in 2004.
The law was changed that such the decision was taken out of the Republican governor's hands in 2004.
Now the desire is to change the law where the Democratic governor can insure a democratic replacement for Obama's Senate.
Get the difference... Republican governor - remove appointment from his hands.
Democratic governor - put the appointment in his hands.
I have to ask the question...and this is the important issue:
If the governor were Republican, would Obama make the same request? The answer is certainly no.
