Bluest State: Blueprint for American Political Disaster

Massachusetts: it is the proud birthplace of modern-day liberalism, and the nation's foremost test kitchen for its agenda and political practices.

Jon Keller, WBZ-TV News' Political Analyst, joins Jeff Jacoby, Boston Globe columnist, in reviewing the ups and downs of our beloved state's political culture and what can be done to carve out a new frontier of American leadership.
