“Many have contemplated who should run and who could beat Gov. Baker,” “In our eyes there is one. So that is why as we look ahead to 2018 we have turned our focus to Secretary of State John Kerry, a man with a long resume of public service who is uniquely positioned to defeat Baker and make Massachusetts a leader in clean energy, technology, and new jobs for the entire state, not just Boston.”
