I think the lack of media coverage at this point (and this is just my opinion - not the campaign's) is based primarily on two underlying presumptions - 1) they believe that there isn't a race on the GOP side, so why cover the Republican candidate? And, 2) they don't think the Republican candidate has a snowballs chance in hell of winning in Massachusetts. They believe the inevitable conclusion is that the state will vote for a Democrat Senator! We know this isn't true - if we mobilize to change that! However - we are a largely Democrat leaning state - with a Dem leaning media - so always expect more coverage of the Democrat candidate. That's just life in the Bay State, unfortunately.
I just finished watching OTR. Great job !!!! I think that Ed and Janet treated you the same as the other candidates especially with the "Gotcha" questions. You did better than the previous candidates on them. It would be great if other media covered your campaign. Are there going to be any television campaign ads? It seems to me that the Democrats are the only ones the media is covering. Including channel 5.

Good to see the coverage. I think Scott needs to be a little more assertive though in his delivery. I think being the humble , thoughtful candidate has merits, don't get me wrong, but . . . a little display of moxie would go a long way in interesting - otherwise uninterested - voters (e.g., the masses of unenrolled voters).
