Thoughts and Links to Brighten Your Day
Get Informed
If you are a Mass. voter, be sure to watch the Senate debate tonight at 7pm. Lets make an informed decision in this important vote. I personally endorse Pagliuca based on his business experience and ambition. I think he can be a forward thinking leader in the most painfully old fashioned wing of our government. I see his lack of political background as a plus, since he is refusing money from lobbyists. Mostly, Coakley and Capuano’s pledge to oppose healthcare reform if it contains restrictions on abortion spending is a deal-breaker for me. I’m pro-choice, but healthcare reform is too important to mess with.
In the Beginning
I’m starting this blog as an outlet for myself and others to share thoughts and links (as the title suggests). I studied journalism in college, and I need to write to keep my sanity. I will write and link about politics, sports, music, entertainment, art, and all manner of things. If you have a cool link that you’d like to share, or a thought that you’d like me to post, email me; danthemanmac@gmail.com.
