Kelly Bates and Sen. BobHedlund were Monday's guests to talk politics. Jim Braude and Margery Eagan asked them about Mayor Marty Walsh, the dearth of Republican legislators in the statehouse, Gov. Chris Christie's administration's bridge problems, and the fiasco involving New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio eating pizza with a fork and knife.
Afterwards, Jim and Margery asked listeners how they felt about the so-called "PizzaGate." Does it matter if politicians duff it on beloved local traditions? Should we forgive and forget de Blasio's minor misstep? What about past miscues by Gov. Dukakis, Sec. Kerry or Pres. Obama?
