[0:00]" This is WBZ's Carl Stevens were talking to state senator Michael an epic a Republican and a rare breed a Beacon Hill there only five Republicans senators and senator I just wonder what you think of what the house did yesterday were -- said it might or should -- on this issue of succession."

[0:16]" Well it's clear that fixes and and and I think you saw that in the debate yesterday and I think the majority party the Democrats. There efficacy -- pretty college -- I think they had.

Five years ago it. Two to ask for a an interim appointment during the vacancy before this special election would be held in. There wasn't good that in -- people like to doublespeak the double talk in after billion dollar tax increase in. Economy that still and in shambles. You know we ought to be focusing on job creation of Massachusetts with an unemployment rate at nine point 1% right now and -- playing these national games in. Taking calls from David Axelrod and president Obama's email questioning people have been -- I think that not enough and you know you make the -- got to play by the rules but you know we have the majority of votes in the legislature you can change the rules whatever you want and I think -- stinks."
