From the Globe’s Frank Phillips: “John Kingston, a wealthy businessman, philanthropist, and major Republican donor, has emerged as a serious potential candidate for the GOP nomination to oppose incumbent Democratic Senator Elizabeth Warren. For the past several weeks, Kingston, 51, has been meeting with the state’s top Republicans, including political aides to Governor Charlie Baker, state party leaders, and major GOP donors as he explore a candidacy.” Republican leaders apparently like what they see. His candidacy, if it ever becomes a reality, reminds us of another time a Republican finance guy took on a sitting U.S. senator in Massachusetts, i.e. Mitt Romney vs. Ted Kennedy.
