" Up here in the Commonwealth (God save it!), there&amp;#039;s a nifty little donnybrook in the 4th Congressional District, which happens to be where I live. As we know, Barney Frank is retiring. The favorite among the Democrats is Joseph Kennedy III (or IV, I can never keep that one straight), the grandson of RFK and, by all accounts, a very decent skin indeed. (He was one of the two twins for whom their mother, Sheila Rauch, went to the mattresses against Holy Mother Church when she divorced their father, former congressman Joe Kennedy and, as one Democratic strategist told me a while back, &amp;quot;You&amp;#039;ll like him. He&amp;#039;s more of a Rauch than a Kennedy.&amp;quot; But being a Kennedy on the ballot is still somewhat helpful. The love-hate deal with the Kennedys that Massachusetts Democrats have is something far beyond neurotic at this point.)  But the real brawl is on the Republican side. Here, a guy named Sean Bielat, a hero on the Massachusetts Right because he avoided being utterly crushed by Frank the last time around in the biggest Republican wave year nationally since the end of the Civil War \u2014 which for the Massachusetts Right is the biggest win they&amp;#039;ve had since the last time they hounded a gay teacher out of a job \u2014 is battling a psychiatrist named Elizabeth Childs and a dentist named David Steinhof, and is taking the Willard Romney Fk-All-You-Ignorant-Peasants campaign strategy one step beyond. Bielat won&amp;#039;t tell anyone who he&amp;#039;s working for.... Sean Bielat, the Norfolk Republican, took fire from Dr. Elizabeth Childs, a psychiatrist from Brookline who hammered him for failing to disclose the name of his current employer - an online political start-up where he serves as chief executive - or its roster of \u00ADinvestors. &amp;quot;You have a transparency problem that has to be resolved,&amp;quot; Childs told Bielat during a debate hosted by Talk 1200 Boston. &amp;quot;You are not electable in this district unless you are willing to talk about who you work for and who the investors are.&amp;quot; Bielat, who has avoided publicly discussing details of the start-up on the campaign trail, pushed back by calling Childs&amp;#039; claims &amp;quot;ridiculous&amp;quot; and saying they show her lack of business understanding. Say what? Jesus Christ, by those standards of transparency, you could be working for the Cali Cartel. If it&amp;#039;s too dangerous for the start-up for its investors to be revealed because you&amp;#039;re running for Congress, maybe you shouldn&amp;#039;t run for Congress? No, really, Sean. Keep digging. We&amp;#039;ll wait. He refuses to name the website \u2014 an interactive site that helps citizens directly contact any member of Congress about \u00ADissues that concern them \u2014 \u00ADbecause he said he wants the site to remain nonpartisan and separate from his congressional campaign. Start-ups, he insisted during the debate, never reveal their investors until the company has gone public. &amp;quot;Angel investments tend to be private; that&amp;#039;s how it works.&amp;quot; said Bielat, who ran unsuccessfully against Frank in 2010. &amp;quot;We are not going to publicize the name of the business until we&amp;#039;re off the ground and people aren&amp;#039;t associating it with me.&amp;quot; In other words, perhaps, you&amp;#039;re not working for anyone at the moment. &amp;quot;I am Sean Bielat and nobody is the boss of me!&amp;quot; If this keeps up, we are only one step removed from our political campaigns devolving into Mexican wrestling, where everybody wears a mask.
