Madeline McComish, Chairman of the MCFL State PAC has announced PAC endorsements for the State Representative special election on May 10,2011: James Dixon, 10th Middlesex, and Peter Durant for, 6th Worcester.
"Jim Dixon is a dedicated defender of Life who has worked for many years to save babies from abortion." said McComish. "He has served as Chapter Chairman of the Waltham Chapter of MCFL and has served on the Board of Directors of Massachusetts Citizens For Life."
"Peter Durant is another dedicated defender of Life." said McComish. "His opponent supports a pro-abortion agenda."
The 6th Worcester, where Durant is running against a pro-abortion incumbent, consists of Charlton, Southbridge, East Brookfield and portions of Oxford and Spencer.
Dixon is running for an open seat against a pro-abortion candidate. The 10th Middlesex consists of precincts 1 and 4 of ward 1, and precinct 4 of ward 3, of the city of Newton, all precincts of wards 5 and 6, precinct 2 of ward 7, and all precincts of wards 8 and 9, of the city of Waltham, and precinct 10, of the town of Watertown.
McComish concludes, "As State Representatives, Jim Dixon and Peter Durant will support a 100% Pro-life agenda. We need PRO-LIFE Representatives at the State House. Jim Dixon and Peter Durant need your vote in the special election on Tuesday, May 10, 2011."
Our friend, Professor Patrick Flood just sent along this food for thought.
"Today just for fun I checked the state NARAL (www.prochoicemass.org) website to see what they might have put up lately, and I think you will find this interesting and of possible use. NARAL is officially urging voters to vote NO on Questions 1 and 3 because passage 'could have a devastating impact on access to reproductive health services in the Commonwealth.'"
Apparently NARAL wants plenty of tax money to pay for abortions.
And Tom Connelly has pointed out that NARAL reports they have not spent any money in the Massachusetts Congressional races, http://www.opensecrets.org/out...
Yet, Joan Cronin just called to say they have endorsed Kevin Byrne against pro-life Matthew Beaton (11th Worcester) for State Rep.
John Triolo reports they have endorsed Congressman Tierney agaist pro-life Bill Hudak for Congress in the 6th District.
These endorsements won't show up in their expenditures until after the election.
Thanks to Jaon, John, Tom, and Pat and to you all. I know you are out there working hard in these closing hours!

MCFL State PAC Endorses Jim McKenna for Attorney General
Boston- Madeline McComish, Chairman of the MCFL State Political Action Committee, today announced that the MCFL State PAC has endorsed Jim McKenna for Attorney General in the September 14 Primary and November election.
"Jim McKenna is a dedicated defender of the law," said McComish. "He served as an assistant district attorney in the Organized Crime Division of the Suffolk County District Attorney's office where he focused on corruption and organized crime in Boston. For six years, McKenna also served as an assistant district attorney in the Worcester County District Attorney's office."
McKenna holds pro-life positions on all aspects of the pro-life issue, from abortion funding to informed consent, to partial birth abortion and parental consent. Very important also is his pledge to enforce the Massachusetts laws that provide protection to unborn children and are currently in place, according to McComish.
Martha Coakley is totally opposed to any laws that will protect the lives of the unborn. She strongly supports abortion and takes anti-life positions on the other life issues.
Ten thousand (10,000) voters must write in: James McKenna, Millbury, MAfor Attorney General on their Republican primary ballots on Sept. 14th in order to get his name on the November ballot. Writing the same on a Democratic ballot won't count as a vote but will send a strong message.
MCFL State PAC is in the process of contacting pro-life people across the state and urging them to participate in the write in campaign. "This is the first time that the MCFL State PAC has endorsed a write in candidate," says McComish. "If we pull together on September 14, we will succeed in getting Jim's name on the November ballot and make a statement against Coakely in the Democratic primary. Best of all, in November, we will elect a pro-life Attorney General." For more information about MCFL State PAC, please visit http://MCFLStatePAC.intuitwebs...

MCFL State PAC Endorses Tim Cahill for Governor
Boston- Madeline McComish, Chairman of MCFL State Political Action Committee, today announced that the MCFL State PAC has endorsed State Treasurer, Tim Cahill, for Governor in the November election.
Tim Cahill will be an outstanding advocate for the unborn, the disabled, and the elderly. He will bring commonsense solutions to protecting their rights and their lives. Cahill holds pro-life positions on all aspects of the issue, from abortion funding to informed consent, to partial birth abortion and parental consent. Very important also is his opposition to Physician Assisted Suicide which is currently being proposed in the state legislature, according to McComish.
She added, Currently pro-life people across the state are collecting signatures to repeal Obamacare. They welcome Tim Cahills pledge to opt out of the abortion funding in Obamacare. People remember that Cahill was the first to point out that Romneycare in Massachusetts will go bankrupt in four years, thus subjecting everyone in the state to rationing and denial of care. The other gubernatorial candidates have publicly stated their support for the pro-choiceposition. In other words, they support abortion and take anti-life positions on the other life issues."
MCFL State PAC is in the process of contacting pro-life people across the state and will mobilize more than 100,000 activists in Massachusetts in support of Cahill. For more information about MCFL State PAC, please visit, http://MCFLStatePAC.intuitwebs...
