Mr. Smooth: Deval Patrick eyes road fixes for Michelle Obama

[WillowTree]

Deval Patrick’s office personally asked town officials to dispatch road crews this week to fill potholes near his Berkshires mansion to pave the way for a smooth ride for first lady Michelle Obama when she hits the Bay State for a presidential fundraiser at the governor’s getaway next month.

Richmond Town Administrator Matthew Kerwood said a staffer from the governor’s State House office called this week and asked him to plug potholes on Cone Hill Road, which leads to Patrick’s Sweet P Farm, where he’s hosting a $20,000-a-seat dinner on Aug. 3 with the first lady for the Obama Victory Fund.

“They just mentioned the condition of the road and requested if it could be addressed,” said Kerwood. “I said, ‘OK, we’ll look at it.’ ”

“Why not just pave the road in gold?” said GOP operative Rob Gray. “It’s only the taxpayers who are paying to make sure the first lady has a smooth ride. This is the public works equivalent of saying, ‘Do you know who I am?’

Those 1 Percenters are gladly paying their fair share, huh? They are the ones with the skin in the game and not parking assets in the Caymans and Bermuda?

Those 1 Percent can pay my fare share.

Mitt was going to go, but he couldn't find his driver's license.
