Scott Brown's terms with respect to the

EMK Institute's proposed senatorial debate are...childish to the say the least.

1.) Victoria Kennedy has to remain "neutral" in the general campaign...
She has a first amendment right to free speech Scott.
Your wife Gail Huff is a journalist and no one is demanding she remain neutral in this campaign..."whassup wif dat?" to quote Shane Helms.
You are within your rights to want a "fair and balanced" approach to the debate by the host institution, but this condition is perfectly churlish.
And anyway where were all these conditions back in 2010 when you debated Coakley at the same institute under the auspices of the same Ms. Kennedy?
2.) No coverage by MSNBC.
Again churlish...Yer within yer rights to ask for Fox News to counterbalance the alleged liberal bias of MSNBC, but banning press outlets is more than a little bossy in a sandbox-y sort of a way.

Oh and the whole proposed shebang is gonna be moderated by that King of Collie Dogs, Tom Brokaw.  Well at least he isn't a power worshipper like the late Tim Russert, but I can't really see Brokaw bringing much to the table otherwise.

Otherwise the campaign is off to a rousing start...
