Reply to comment by Dagonus in What if Charlie Baker runs for President? by nebirah

Yep. There are rumors that part of the reason Baker didn't run was because he saw internal polling showing him losing in the Republican primary to Diehl. He is actually much more favorably viewed by Democrats and people who voted for Biden than he is by Republicans and people who voted for Trump, so it's believable: https://news.northeastern.edu/2021/12/13/charlie-baker-democrat-support/

That said, he's probably also just burnt out after COVID, being a governor during the pandemic must have been brutal.

Also for months he had protesters camped out across the street from his home. In fact one person entered his home, through MSP PROTECTION! To leave an envelope on his kitchen table, Absolutely not KOOL !
