Lowell’s Rising Son in the Sun

For the Lowell Sun article on Micky Ward’s endorsement of Patrick, click here.

Today’s Sun also included a story about all 5th District candidates.  The section devoted to Patrick focused on his Shared Sacrifice Act, a form of which Congressman Jim McGovern and other senior Democrats introduced in Congress today (more on that later). 

We were also pleased to read a letter to the editor of the Sun from Mr. Patrick Hughes of Ayer, entitled “Murphy is an independent thinker.”   It seems that Mr. Hughes shares not only Patrick’s good name,  but also his good ideas.  We wish to thank Mr. Hughes for his letter, his vote and his courage to stand with Patrick and the campaign in ensuring that a “new voice” is heard.

Micky Ward Endorses Patrick

Better pictures and more to come in the Lowell Sun, but for now, I can say with pride that fighting great”Irish” Micky Ward has endorsed Patrick’s run for Congress. Patrick and I trained down the West End Gym for years. We come from a family of champs. Patrick, when studying over at Trinity College in Dublin, Ireland, was an All-Ireland junior welterweight champion in the amateurs. We’re hoping the 5th lets Patrick take the fight to Washington. He’s definitely the candidate who will stand up for the regular guy, because he’s one of us.
