The Young Contrarian

Hi BDN Blog readers!  My name is Matt and I’m a recovering political campaign worker living in Southern Maine.  This is the inaugural piece for a daily blog I’ll be doing with the Bangor Daily News, the goal being to get at least one meaty piece out a week, with smaller updates each day as the political news unfolds.  We’ll see how I do, but I can’t think of a better time to start something like this than in October during a presidential election year.  Special thanks to Matthew Gagnon for hooking me up with the BDN and to Pat Lemieux for getting this blog up and running.  Thanks for reading and I look forward to (hopefully) many debates and conversations.
