TV American Experience - Season 4 Episode 4 : Scandalous Mayor American Experience - Season 4 Episode 4 : Scandalous Mayor 6.6/10 by 43 users James Michael Curley dominated Boston's politics for almost half a century, building a sophisticated political machine based on rhetoric, old-fashioned patronage and sheer personal will. In 1903, he ran a campaign from jail and won; he overpowered opponents with charisma and intelligence, and if that didn't work, he smeared them. Curley's colorful, combative style seized the imagination of the community because he thumbed his nose at the Yankee establishment.
