The introduction of a direct Boston-to-Beijing flight from Logan International Airport somehow does not feel like an adequate counter to that bad news.

It would appear that there is no “there” there after all with the Mayah. Now that he has been reelected, watch the folks who paid for the party scatter. They have what they wanted, access. If this is what he calls “leadership”, Boston is in deep doo-doo. He’s no Giuliani.
