1. That should really be fun
Edited on Thu Apr-07-11 07:12 PM by karynnj
If I was a suspicious person, I might suspect that JK is doing these all over the state to set a high bar - in terms of number, length and especially unvetted questions - for a Senator actually up for re-election. But, there is a good reason to do it just because people need to be able to meet with their representatives.

What I wonder is whether there is a Scott Brown bubble - that if it is punctured by something real will change the game enormously. So, far the media is covering for him, but he actually has to meet people campaigning - and he is not a good speaker and his knowledge in committees is underwhelming.

The fact the media has hyped him more than they did Obama when he was first there - and his book really sold poorly considering the amount of publicity. After all it was a book that got nation wide press and it is from a major publishing house - the numbers have to be a disappointment.
