Grace Ross ran for governor in 2006 as the Green-Rainbow Party's nominee, and got under 2% of the vote. In 2010, she plans to run against Governor Deval Patrick for the Democratic Party's gubernatorial nomination. Patrick campaign spokesman Alex Goldstein said of Ross: "Governor Patrick welcomes Grace Ross to the Democratic primary...He looks forward to a vigorous and substantive discussion..." Translation: Good luck getting me to debate you. According to the Globe, one of Ross's ideas in 2006 was to allocate about $50 million to loan to small businesses, municipalities, and property owners for alternative-energy projects. Sounds reasonable. No chance. [Boston Globe]
