Nerd-

Excellent commentary! You certainly are wired into campaign info. I appreciate your perspective. I haven't been "wired in" since I last worked full-time on a failed U.S. Senate campaign (Tom Andrews vs. Olympia Snowe) back in 1996.

However, the role of the media in this country against insurgent candidates should be a given. Somehow, such candidates have generate their own news and stay on message.

Good luck,
