Dems honor Kate Donaghue

Hundreds of Massachusetts Democrats gathered in Hudson Sunday morning to honor Democratic State Committee member Kate Donaghue.

The room was filled with many who first became activists thanks to Kate's prodding and some who hold office due in large part to her efforts.

Included among those in attendance were:
Congressman James McGovern;
Lt. Governor Tim Murray;
Former Governor Michael Dukakis and his wife, Kitty;
Attorney General Martha Coakley;
Secretary of State Bill Galvin;
Former Elder Affairs Sec. Mike Festa;
Massachusetts Democratic Committee Chair John Walsh;
State Senator Jamie Eldridge;
Progressive Talk Radio host, Jeff Santos;
Many state committee members, including our own Kathy Pasquina, West Newbury.

I showed up with my camera to capture the morning's festivities. Take a look HERE.

Congratulations, Kate!

Thank you, Newburyport Current!

Wow! Great piece by Barbara Taermina in this week's Newburyport Current about last week's 3T & 2C breakfast and the local Democratic political scene. Thank you, Barbara, for the plug for this blog and for the Newburyport Dems blog.

I hope those of you who live locally and are visiting this blog for the first time will scroll down and check out the photos I've posted in the past year or so. Be sure to follow the link to the photos of the Yankee Homecoming Parade.

A RIDDLE

What do Lieutenant Governor Tim Murray, Congressman John Tierney, MA Democratic Party Chair John Walsh, Essex County DA John Blodgett, MA State Rep. Harriett Stanley, Governor's Council member Mary-Ellen Manning, and Democratic State Committee members from as far as Worcester County all have in common with 150 local Democrats? They were all in Newburyport Saturday morning at the 3Ts and 2Cs Breakfast! (Three towns--Newbury, Salisbury and West Newbury--and two cities--Newburyport and Amesbury.)

Know what happens when you google "3t 2c breakfast"?

You get the Newburyport blog and 17,600 breakfast recipes using 3 tablespoons (or teaspoons) and 2 cups!
