Not to change the subject but.....Gerry Connolly.
It would appear that his loyal staff have scrubbed his Wiki page to the point of not mentioning at all that he was born and raised in Boston. In fact, Gerry just "appears from nowhere" in 1979 and starts serving on some Senate committee.

He's really had a remarkable career of being in the right place at the right time. Hasn't done shit otherwise but he's always where he needs to be to move up the food chain.
