U.S. Rep. Barney Frank received an endorsement from an unusual source Friday - a former Republican opponent.
Edward McCormick of Norfolk, who ran unsuccessfully against Frank in 1992, said he was supporting his former foe because of his superior knowledge of issues and his willingness to work with Republicans to get things done.
"Perhaps it's not every day in politics that a former opponent endorses Congressman Barney Frank. However, these are not ordinary times and as a Republican, I'm proud to support Barney Frank for re-election because of his leadership, commitment, and willingness to always hold true to his principles," McCormick said.

Thank you. We can always count on an on-site FR Broadband Reporter to give us the facts. That’s why FR is the best news and commentary site on the Web!
Well, it could have been true.
No. The only time the Democrats work with Republicans is when Republicans vote the Democrat way, not the other way around.
Whom is sucking Whom in the Great Commonwealth of Massachusetts??
On the other hand it pretty much sums up all you need to know about RINOs. The same bastatds who’re conspiring as we speak to unhorse Palin.
I cannot imagine the demrats allowing the coopted (by them) GOP revert to conservative control. It will be fascinating watching a second new, true and national opposition party (to the demrat party) be born. The opposition vacuum will be filled by some entity one way or the other. It’s a natural law.
Stockhom Syndrome in the former very blue but turning purple Bay State?
That is funny rite there! Did you send a copy to Bawney Frwank? He would prowbabwly love it.
Frank must have some incriminating photos of this guy.
Interesting how that endorsement says nothing about whether or not Frank's "principles" (snicker) are actually worth supporting. So, that same anodyne statement would seem to cover Pol Pot, Josef Stalin, the Unabomber, Osama Bin Laden, and other paragons of virtue...
I think he lives in that old house at the end of Lake St.
“x-GOP foe endorses Frank”
Just another.......FREAK FOR FRANK!!!

Too bad those "things" are destroying our country.
The mush-mouthed POS sweetpea needs to be run out of town on Tuesday.
Course, I'd rather seen him tried and put in prison for life, but that's just me.
