Subtract one from your list of potential 2020 WH candidates. His Excellency Deval Patrick, who served as Governor of Massachusetts (2007-2015) and Assistant AG for Civil Rights under Bill Clinton, will not be seeking the Democratic nomination for POTUS. He was a great campaigner and OK Governor, but then thoroughly disappeared it seemed. We see more of Michael Dukakis around here than we do of him. His assessment of there not being a place for him in this race is probably accurate.
