Was at this event and the best part was seeing all the folks wearing their Cancer Votes stickers hours after the debate.
Cancer Votes Massachusetts was out last week at the U.S. Senate candidate debate in Springfield, MA, the third of four scheduled debates between Rep. Scott Brown (R) and Elizabeth Warren (D).
Cancer Votes volunteers and staff spent time talking with supporters from both campaigns about why cancer needs to be a national priority, and six volunteers and staff were able to attend the sold-out debate.
And Cancer Votes volunteer Pat Spain from North Andover gave several interviews to reporters, including one with NPR!
According to Cancer Votes staffer Patricia Mallios, volunteers and staff were able to meet a lot of people and many of them kept their stickers on during the debate and were interested in hearing about Cancer Votes.

That's Ben Bradlee, Jr. @ Gibson's Bookstore in Concord, N.H. For a reading and signing of THE KID, the definitive bio of Ted Williams.
Marine fighter pilot, brash ball player, accomplished fisherman
From Ben Bradlee, Jr.’s “The Kid”: Ted was an original; not the traditional, modest, self-effacing hero, but brash, profane, outspoken and guileless. Self-taught and inquiring, he excelled as a Marine fighter pilot, and became one of the most accomplished fishermen in the world. For better and worse, he was always his own man, never a phony—characteristics that helped him outlast his critics and win widespread affection and admiration as he aged. He had three favorite songs, which he played in his mind to help him fall asleep: the “Star Spangled Banner,” the “Marine Hymn” and “Take Me Out to the Ballgame.”

Just some musings and electronic gatherings of an ink-stained wretch turned social media junkie. As JADAL says: No trees were destroyed in the sending of this organic message. I do concede, however, a significant number of electrons may have been inconvenienced.
