    <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://mac4congress2010.com/?l=map&quot;&gt;Mac D&#039;Alessandro&lt;/a&gt;, running against Stephen Lynch for Congress in Massachusetts&#039; 9th district, addressed a rally on the Boston Common Tuesday, August 10 organized by Boston MoveOn members. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;A vote for Mac on September 14 is a vote for a better, more progressive Democrat.  Mac is pro-choice, Lynch is not. Lynch voted for the war in Iraq, Mac did not and does not support extending the wars.  Mac supported health care reform, Lynch voted against it. They both support Elizabeth Warren to run the consumer protection agency. Let Mac tell you why he&#039;s running and what he stands for (video): &lt;/p&gt;
