| Description | "Governor Mitt Romney's pledge to keep politics out of his appointments to top-level state posts came under fire yesterday when he gave $82,500-a-year jobs to a Massachusetts Democratic lawmaker who campaigned for President Bush and to an unsuccessful GOP candidate for the Legislature.
Praising their professional experiences and education, Romney announced that he was appointing Representative Brian P. Golden, Democrat of Allston, and Judith Judson, a Topsfield Republican activist, to be commissioners of the Department of Telecommunications and Energy.
But despite their Harvard University educations and backgrounds in the fields, the appointments of Golden and Judson put the governor on the defensive and highlighted the political difficulty created by his vow to change Beacon Hill politics." |
