 Dewey Square quietly flexes its political muscle - The Boston Globe
Within political circles, Whouley enjoys a mythic reputation, the gravel-voiced son of Dorchester who quietly joins political campaigns, organizes grassroots activity, fills vans with voters, and then recedes into private life as his employers -- Michael Dukakis, Al Gore, or John F.
