3 days to Nov. 5. State Rep. Marty Walsh joins comedian John Hodgman at the Wilbur Theatre tonight. The appearance arises from Hodgman supporting Walsh’s efforts to make “Roadrunner” the official rock song of Massachusetts. City Councillor At-Large John Connolly speaks at the Four Corners Neighborhood Association meeting and then heads to the West End for an event with state Rep. Jay Livingstone, a Back Bay Democrat. Both candidates, as well as Mayor Thomas Menino, are expected to attend this afternoon’s ribbon-cutting for the East Boston branch of the Boston Public Library.

SUPER SECRET SUPER PACs: The Globe and the Herald take a look at the "dark money" that has hit the mayoral race like a tidal wave, almost entirely in support of Rep. Walsh. Boston magazine's David Bernstein and CommonWealth magazine's Paul McMorrow have been ahead of everybody on this. (Somebody send a memo to the Herald, though. In their piece, they refer to Bernstein, a longtime political reporter, as a "blogger.")

IN HAPPIER TIMES: A video shot by a Dorchester activist, showing Walsh and Connolly campaigning together in 2005, surfaced on YouTube last night but was gone by this morning. Filmed in July 2005, when Connolly was running for at-large for the first time, the short video shows them both wearing “Connolly for Council” stickers as they door-knock in Dorchester and take pictures with voters in McKenna’s restaurant in Savin Hill. “We’re campaigning, uh, John Connolly’s running for citywide City Council,” Walsh says. “He’s a guy that I met when he was an intern at the State House about 12 years ago, and a dear friend, and I’m just out here helping him get elected to the City Council.” Walsh later says, “This is how you get elected. Retail politics. You go out, knock on doors, and you talk to people, explain who you are. This is how you win. The information superhighway doesn’t win elections.” A smiling Connolly adds, “You have to like it. I like it. I like going and banging on these doors, meeting new people, hearing about concerns in neighborhoods.” The video was posted by Catherine O'Neill, a Dorchester political activist who unsuccessfully mounted a City Council at-large campaign earlier this year. "I shot this July 2005, when they were being themselves; friends; I hope they can get back to this place," O'Neill wrote on her blog. She did not immediately respond to a request for comment this morning.
