expand this article please
For someone who is a politician for pretty much his entire life thru many different capacities there is not much at all here on his views about just about anything or his voting record. plenty on offices he held but nothing on his views. also a large portion of this article is citation needed. If anyone wants to take a stab at it.. feel free -Tracer9999 (talk) 03:52, 9 February 2011 (UTC)

Vandalism
Each current Senator and Representative uses the CongLinks template for a reason. The recent deletion by Tracer9999 of the fields for official Congressional biography, voting record, C-SPAN appearances, Govtrack, and Washington Post extended biography are inexplicable, especially when the edit notes state: "External links: trimmed external links by a little bit.. we dont need 3 biography pages that repeat the same thing etc.. its becoming a link farm)" Clearly these links are much more than that, and they are provided to help the citizens of Massachusetts, not to help partisans bury or cover up the public statements and voting records of a public servant.

 * And now a second time. Apparently Tracer9999 couldn't be bothered to check the Talk page. Flatterworld (talk) 00:48, 5 March 2011 (UTC)
 * I've now restored the March formatting. The spaces are for readability when updating. The (currently) unused parameters are to help in future updating. Flatterworld (talk) 17:32, 14 May 2011 (UTC)
