Two commissioners on the state's quasi judicial labor relations board are accusing Governor Deval Patrick's chief labor aide of interfering with the agency on cases involving two unions that endorsed Patrick and donated heavily to his gubernatorial campaign.As was the case with Ben LaGuer, Deval should have done his homework picking Bump.The two commissioners, Paul T. O'Neill and Hugh L. Reilly, asserted in interviews with the Globe that Suzanne M. Bump made an inappropriate call about a case involving the Boston Teachers Union and pressured the commission to approve a pending petition by Service Employees International Union, Local 1199.

Comments
You just don't understand. I read in the Herald that the problem was that Deval "spreading his gaze too widely".
***Later, during an interview after he addressed the Newburyport Chamber of Commerce, Patrick said he may have fueled his early problems by hunkering down in the Statehouse, working line-by-line through his first budget, and by spreading his gaze too widely.***
Maybe he spreads to widely for gays.
