I hereby predict that a surprising upset will take place in the Democratic primary
where Clayboy Prius Pell will stun the Raimondo and Taveras campaigns with a
nail-biter victory. Pell went from a huge unknown underdog with nothing but his
family name and the fact he's married to Michelle Kwan earlier this year into a
squeaky-clean nice guy image that voters will respond to. Look at this poll shift.
Brown University April 3-5
Raimondo 29 Taveras 26 Pell 10
WPRI/Fleming May 27-30
Raimondo 29 Taveras 33 Pell 12
WPRI/Fleming August 11-14
Raimondo 32 Taveras 27 Pell 26
see the pattern here ? While Raimondo and Taveras each have their negatives
based on track records and particular affiliations which put substantial numbers
of voters off, Pell has stayed above the fray with his general promises of clean
government and infrastructure improvement projects. The Pell name is gold.
Democratic voters don't seem to care much that he hasn't lived in RI. He's
married to a celebrity (good), he's "nice" (good), he's a PELL (good), and he
has slick, happy tv commercials. While Gina and Angel are chomping at each other
Pell just cruises above the fray. Neither have done what they should be, namely
effectively shredding Pell for his lack of experience, or even the missing Prius fiasco
which could have been a campaign issue. They are making a major mistake. Pell
is connected with the Obama machine and the Kennedy machine. There is still a
Pell machine especially in Newport and Washington counties. Taveras's lock on
Providence may also be challenged if East Siders see an image in Clayboy Pell
they prefer to your standard politician.
Clay Pell will win the Democratic primary then beat either Fung or Block by
10 points to be our next Guvnah.

he might not win, although i stick with this prediction you know it's an underdog play
he's seen as coming in 3rd in the primary, nevermind governor. so if he has about a
20% chance of winning the primary (gina and angel being 40/40) and a 50% chance
(make it 60%) of winning the general that means the odds payout would be about
9 to 1 here. So you pay me 90 to win 10. k ?

Pell is a Progressive Democrat and we haven't voted one in as governor yet. Sundlun, the last Democrat governor, was not considered progressive at all. Since then, republicans and an independent. Progressives do not play well outside of Providence.

? sorry but the average Rhode Island voter doesn't know what you mean.
All they know is Pell is nice and he is a Pell.
no, lol, i wasn't wholly serious. this was a toungue-in-cheek post.
but don't worry, Clayboy will get his turn. That's how RI works.
He needs to pay more dues and work his way up. Oddly- sometimes RI works that way.
