The recent election of Scott Brown as Massachusetts' next U.S. Senator means the Senate Republican Caucus will soon see its numbers dwindle from five to just four. But Senate Minority Leader Richard R. Tisei thinks Brown's victory could be "a harbinger of things to come" for the Republican Party.
Longtime Boston journalist Peter Lucas, who now writes a weekly political column for the Lowell Sun, recently sat down with Tisei to discuss his run for Lieutenant Governor and the GOP's prospects in the 2010 state elections. Be sure to check out Tisei's comments on why he thinks the GOP is "not only poised to win the governor's office, but to increase its numbers in both the House and the Senate."
