About MetroLeft

Everybody pays attention to national issues. That's a given in this day and age, especially with the prevalence of national mass-market media. A number of blogs, like DailyKos are devoted to discussion of national issues.

Likewise, there are blogs on state-level issues, like Blue Mass Group, and local media gives plenty of coverage to those matters.

But on a much more local level... hardly anything. Some media, like the MetroWest Daily News or your local cable access channel, but hardly any discussion sites where you can talk to your neighbors from across the region on issues that matter to MetroWest.

Until now, of course.

So welcome to MetroLeft! We'd like to hear your take on local issues, or state and national issues as they pertain to and affect the MetroWest region! If it matters to you, even if it only matters to one town, this is the place to discuss it. Town affairs do affect neighboring towns, and we can all learn from other towns' experiences.

Welcome, and enjoy!
