The Boston Globe (and Boston Sunday Globe) is the most widely circulated daily Newspaper in Boston and in New England, ”

Weld gained national recognition in fighting public corruption: he won 109 convictions out of 111 cases.

In 1983, the Boston Globe stated: "The U. S. Attorney's office has not lost a single political corruption case since Weld took over, an achievement believed to be unparalleled in the various federal jurisdictions. "

Promotion to Justice Department

In 1986, President Reagan promoted Weld to head of the Criminal Division of the Justice Department in Washington, where Weld oversaw 700 employees. Weld was responsible for supervising all federal prosecutions, including those investigated by the FBI and the Drug Enforcement Administration, as well as the work of the 93 U. S.

Manuel Antonio Noriega (born February 11, 1934) He was never officially the President of Panama, but held the post of "chief executive officer"

Weld's record as Governor of Massachusetts

William Weld became the first Republican Governor of Massachusetts since Francis W. Sargent left office in 1975. Francis William Sargent ( July 29, 1915 - October 21, 1998) was governor of Massachusetts from 1969 to 1975 He was elected during a tumultuous time when the state's bond rating was near junk status, unemployment was nearly 10%, and the state had continuously borrowed money to close large operating deficits.

During his governorship, Weld ended the state's borrowing, controlled Medicaid spending, reduced property taxes and balanced seven budgets in a row (in a state where a balanced budget is constitutionally mandated) while passing 19 tax cuts and never raising taxes. The business community reacted strongly to Weld's leadership. In a 1994 survey of chief executives conducted by the Massachusetts High Technology Council, 83% of those polled rated the state's business climate as good or excellent--up from only 33% at the beginning of his term. Proponents might claim that Weld's leadership changed the minds of 50% of the CEO's surveyed while others would note the national economic trends or other factors might play a part. Weld also reaped the benefits of the 1990s prosperity, as the state's unemployment rate fell by more than 3 percentage points during his first term, from 9. 6% in 1991 to 6. 4% in 1994.

Other accomplishments touted by Weld's supporters include:

In 1994, Weld won reelection with an impressive 71% of the vote. Weld's 71-28 win over Democrat Mark Roosevelt beat Michael Dukakis's 69-31 trouncing of Republican George Kariotis in 1986, and broke the previous record, set in 1872, when Republican incumbent William Washburn beat Democrat Francis Bird 69-30. Mark Roosevelt (born 1955 is the superintendent of the Pittsburgh Public Schools, the second largest School district in Pennsylvania, and Weld carried all but five towns in the whole state, even carrying Boston.

In 1996, Weld supported the appointment of William Bulger as president of the University of Massachusetts. William "Bill" Michael Bulger (born February 2, 1934) is a retired American Politician from South That same year Weld ran for the United States Senate against Democratic incumbent John Kerry. The United States Senate is the Upper house of the bicameral United States Congress, the Lower house being the House of Representatives The Democratic Party is one of two major Political parties in the United States, the other being the Republican Party. } John Forbes Kerry (born December 11 1943 is an American Politician who is currently serving his fourth term as the junior United States Senator The race was covered nationwide as one of the most closely-watched Senate races that year. Kerry and Weld held several debates and negotiated a campaign spending cap of $6. 9 million at Kerry's Beacon Hill mansion. This agreement, however, was broken by Senator Kerry. [1] In the end, Senator Kerry won re-election with 53 percent to Weld's 45 percent.

US Senate Committee on Foreign Relations is a standing committee of the United States Senate. Jesse Alexander Helms Jr (October 18 1921 – July 4 2008 was a five-term Republican United States Senator from North Carolina who served as chairman Though both were Republicans and though that party held the majority in the chamber, Helms objected to Weld's moderate stance on several social issues.

In December 2005, Weld received the backing of the Republican county chairs of New York State during a county chairs meeting. Several chairs of large counties abstained from voting or did not attend the meeting, which lead to talk that Weld was not as popular as thought. During his early campaign, Weld was publicly endorsed by Republican State Chairman Stephen J. Minarik and was rumored to be backed by Pataki. Despite reports of a possible public endorsement by Pataki, no endorsement was made.

On April 29, 2006, he received the Libertarian Party's nomination[4]. The Libertarian Party is a United States political party founded on December 11 1971 Despite having served as Governor of Massachusetts, Weld has lived in New York since 2000 and grew up on Long Island.

On May 31, 2006, Weld started the Republican State Convention by announcing his choice of New York Secretary of State Christopher Jacobs of Buffalo as his running mate for lieutenant governor. Christopher L Jacobs (born 1967) was Secretary of State of New York and was briefly a candidate for the Republican nomination for Lieutenant Governor of Buffalo (ˈbʌfəloʊ is the second largest city in New York State. A running mate is a Person running for a Subordinate position on a joint ticket during an Election. The Lieutenant Governor of New York is the second highest ranking official in the government of New York. In the following days, Weld received some criticism for his choice of Secretary Jacobs, because Jacobs had donated $250 to the gubernatorial campaign of Attorney General Eliot Spitzer in 2004. Eliot Laurence Spitzer (born June 10, 1959) is an American lawyer and former politician of the Democratic Party. Weld said he choose Jacobs, a member of the Buffalo Board of Education, because of Jacobs' work on education reform and upstate economic development issues. A board of education or a school Board or school committee is the title of the Board of directors of a school local School district Secretary Jacobs has been an advocate of charter schools and for the reviatalization of the upstate economy. Charter schools are elementary or secondary schools in the United States that receive public money but Weld also said he choose Secretary Jacobs because he was an "Albany outsider" and could bring this perspective to state government. Albany is the Capital of the State of New York and the County seat of Albany County. When he was selected by Weld, Jacobs had only served for six weeks as secretary of state in Pataki's Cabinet.

On June 1, 2006, the Republican State Convention voted 61% to 39% to endorse Faso. By achieving over 50 percent of the vote, Faso is the designated Republican Party candidate in the September primary against Weld, but Weld still had enough to force a primary. However, the late Spring nominations of John Faso by the Conservative Party and Weld by the Libertarian Party could be significant. As The Washington Post put it, "[n]ow it turns out whoever loses the GOP primary will stay in the race -- in a position likely to siphon votes from the Republican nominee. The Washington Post is the largest and most circulated Newspaper in Washington D " [5] For this reason, Weld was under tremendous pressure to drop out of the race. On June 5, Stephen J. Minarik, the chairman of the state Republican Party, who had been Weld's most prominent backer, called on Weld to withdraw in the interest of party unity. [6] Weld formally announced his withdrawal from the race the following day.

2008 Presidential Election

Weld publicly endorsed Mitt Romney for the presidency on January 8, 2007. Events 871 - Battle of Ashdown - Ethelred of Wessex defeats a Danish invasion army Year 2007 ( MMVII) was a Common year starting on Monday of the Gregorian calendar in the 21st century. Weld served as the co-chairman for Romney's campaign in New York State. [7] On the same day that Weld endorsed Romney, Gov. and Mrs. Weld also raised $50,000 for Romney's exploratory committee. Weld personally made a donation of $2,100 dollars, the maximum allowed per person per election at the time. He later donated another $200 dollars (the new maximum allowed was $2,300).

Weld was also active in campaigning for Governor Romney in New Hampshire where both Governors have been known to travel together.
