Defining the legacy of
Mass. Gov. Deval Patrick

Pragmatic. The
state’s first black
govern leaves office

lefined by his work,
not his color.

As Gov. Deval Patrick leaves
office to make way for
Gov-elect Charlie Baker, the
legacy of the state's first black
‘governor has been opened up
for debate.

Fred Bayles, the director
of Boston University's State
House Program, a. student
political journalism program,
said he was unsure if there
was going to be any signif
cant, lasting legacy from Pat-
rick’s two terms.

“One could say he was a
fairly good steward during
a time of national economic
crisis.” he said. “But 1 don’t
think they're going to be
building lots of statues of
him”

Bayles said Patrick did not
understand the limitations of
the governor's office and the
power of the Legislature.

“Blindfold yourself and
on some issues you wouldn't
be able to tell the difference
between him and Mitt Rom-
ney,” said Bayles,

‘John Portz, a political sci
ence professor at Northeast-
em University, disagreed.
He thought Patrick's legacy
would be a “generally post
tive one.” Portz described Pat-
rick as a “pragmatic liberal”
— the kind of pol who reso-
nates with the state’s voters.
He thought casino gambling

“To serve eight years and still come out with a
relatively high opinion rating is pretty good.”

Pott,

gest part of Patrick’s legacy.
Maurice Cunningham, a
political science professor at
UMass Boston, said securing
S1 billion in funding over 10
years to foster a life sciences
industry was one of Patrick's
‘most significant accomplish-
ment. Development in that
sector has. followed in in-
novation districts in Boston,
Cambridge and the Route 128
corridor, said Cunningham,
“We ‘have brains in this
state, we don't have natural
resources,” said Cunning-
ham, “That wasa huge thing”
‘Cunningham thought Pat-

A leading opponent of the
Cape Wind project says
the long-awaited energy
initiative in Nantucket Sound
is likely dead after contracts
with two leading energy
utilities were killed

‘The state, meanwhile,
says it’s “too early to know
the impact.”

both released statements
saying Cape Wind did not

ditional $1.9 billion in state
revenue for education and
transportation in 2013. was
one of the governor's big-
gest failures. The Legislature
wouldn't support Patrick's
proposed tax increases need-
ed to raise the funds.

Tom Whalen, a political
historian from Boston Univer
sity, said Patrick had manage-
ment setbacks with scandals
plaguing the Department of
Children and Families and
the state’s Health Connector.
Whalen said Patrick managed
the state's finances “fairly

meet financial commitments
established in the contracts.
Specifically, NSTAR said
Cape Wind failed to
secure financing or begin
construction on the project
by Dec. 31, 2014. They also
failed to post “financial
security” that would have
extended that deadline.

“The deadlines Cape
Wind has missed were
contractually agreed-upon by

spared the brunt of the 2008
recession — but the state’s
casino gaming law that was
passed may “blow up in his
face.”

‘Whalen and Cunningham
both said Patrick's efforts to
diversify the state govern-
ment and judiciary” were
notable and significant.

“The judiciary may be his
longstanding legacy.” said
Whalen. "Historically when
‘you thought of Massachusetts
judges, you thought of old
Brahmin stock whose fam
ily can be traced back to the
Mayflower. Now, the judiciary
reflects Massachusetis as itis,
which is incredibly diverse.”

Phylicia Rashad, Cosby conspiracy theorist

Bill Cosby's TV wife, Phylicia
Rashad, has kept mum on
the whole allegations of
years of sexual assault thing
plaguing the comedian

and TViell-o commercial
personality. But at the prod-
ding of Showbiz 411’s Roger
Friedman, she's reconsider
ing her previous position

of not wanting “to become
part of the public debate.”
So where does she stand?
Firmly in Camp Cosby. Of
course, it's not enough for
Rashad to just dismiss the
accusations from the numer
ous women claiming Cosby
abused them over the last
few decades; she also has to

suggest some sort of greater
(albeit incredibly vague)
conspiracy going on. “Forget
these women. What you're
seeing is the destruction
ofa legacy. And I think it’s
orchestrated,” Rashad says.
“Someone is determined to
keep Bill Cosby off TV. And
it’s worked. All his contracts
have been canceled.” As

for her old gig, “The Cosby
Show.” Rashad says, “This
show represented America
to the outside world. This
was the American family.
