"Mayoral run by Thomas Menino still uncertain; The hints say ‘yes.’ And ‘no.’" by Andrew Ryan | Globe Staff, March 25, 2013
Signs pointing to a run for a sixth term are easy to spot: Mayor Thomas M. Menino has turned feisty and combative in a series of television interviews, branding the mayoral campaign of City Councilor John R. Connolly as the quest of a “nice boy.”
He has ramped up his public schedule, hitting his well-worn circuit of ribbon cuttings and community meetings — with a few stops on Connolly’s home turf, West Roxbury. And then there’s his almost svelte physique and trimmer suits, evidence of the strict diet since being diagnosed with diabetes. It all gives him the look of someone getting back into fighting shape.
But the mayor’s recent fund-raising efforts suggest a different story line....
I'm sorry, but I don't care who runs your pos city.
--more--"
Yeah, he's a "like a craftsman who has mastered the media."
