Jacquelyn Wells has started a new blog, The Sturbridge Progressive Front.  I’ll quote the reason given for starting the blog.

Hello Everyone! I am proud to be starting up a new blog to rival the Sturbridge Tea Party. We need to fight for the common sense values we as progressives believe in on every front and that includes the internet. For the most part I have only seen the Sturbridge Tea Party and their cronies posting their opinions of what is going on in town and I was really getting to the point of utter disgust reading their vitriol. So I decided that we needed to start showing the Tea Party that there is a strong opposition to what they believe in. And this blog will be here to voice what is often the majority opinion in our town. I hope you consider joining us and our cause.

If you are a Facebook aficionado, then you can see the blog reflected on Facebook.

We’ll see how this turns out.  It’s always exciting to be at the front.

Here is an email I received from my favorite Ed Markey campaign field organizer.

Happy Memorial Day! Hope everyone enjoyed the long, holiday weekend! Now it’s time to get to work! We have 29 days to elect Ed Markey to the US Senate. We need your help to get out the vote for a true progressive voice for Massachusetts families! Here are some events coming up in your area…

Look at the date of this post – May 27, 2013. It is obsolete for the purpose of the title. I keep it on the blog for historical reasons, only.

I may be able to get lawn signs from the Ed Markey campaign as early as Wednesday.

If you would like a sign and live in the Sturbridge area, let me know by using the online request form.  It is very short notice from the time I can get the signs to the election on June 25th.  I’ll try to deliver the signs as I did for the Warren campaign.  However, if some of you will be able to pick up the signs from my house, I’ll have a better chance of delivering the signs to the people who cannot pick them up.

Given Ed’s record in the House of Representatives, I think he could be just as strong a fighter for us as Elizabeth Warren has proven to be. The two of them in the Senate might make an unbeatable pair.

After all the work we put in to get Elizabeth Warren elected to the Senate, how could we possibly think of sending someone to the Senate who will work against her? That is just one reason why we must send Ed Markey to the senate instead of his opponent.
