Morning Notes

By David S. Bernstein

--Deval Patrick announces his budget proposal this morning at 11:00. An hour later House Dems meet to appoint Bob DeLeo Speaker; he may not want the job after hearing what Patrick has to say.

--Michael Flaherty sez "the mayor is too secretive, and I know what that's like!"

--Oh, and by the way, this line in Laurel Sweet's article yesterday had them howling in City Hall: "Last year, Flaherty voluntarily surrendered his five-year hold on the council presidency by turning the gavel over to Maureen Feeney, the board’s only female representative."

--Jean-Claude Sanon has a spiffy new web site for his at-large city council campaign. Slogan: "United We Can." That has a familiar ring to it, no?

--All I can say after reading the Herald this morning is that I hope my in-laws appreciate the "mind-boggling," "swanky," "state-of-the-art," "lavish," "massive" TV we bought them for Christmas.
