The Bay State governor's spokesperson says that he does not know Wintersmith and the two have never met. And of course the guv had nothing to do with the commutation, she added.
Patrick is a friend of Obama's. Between his 2004 race and his 2008 presidential races--which were run by David Axelrod--the liberal political operative was in Boston overseeing Patrick's 2006 run.
Two years after the White House said something similar about Obama and his illegal alien uncle--who was arrested for drunk driving that year--we learned that the future president lived at his uncle's Boston area home for three weeks.
Somehow I have a feeling the Patrick/Wintersmith story will have a similar conclusion.
Patrick grew up on the South Side of Chicago, about 100 miles from Illinois' Forest City.
