Its a very Red and Blue TV

What about the Greens? I find my self asking this question again and again. My favorite news channel here in maine is channel 13 news. And they have a segment, (which I hope most TV stations do) that follows the campaigns of National, State, and even some Local bids for office. I was watching last night and they had some numbers of how the incumbent Democrat John Baldacci would fair against the many republican candidates that have thrown in their name. Not one word was made about Pat Lamarche and her chances. Why is this? Pat LaMarche is a great candidate. She has lots of experience in politics, and the race is so contentious this year. We have an incumbent who numbers have been sinking and long list of nobodies on the others side. So this is definitle the time for Greens to shine, and I feel that the TV stations that I watch should at least once or twice represent my views on the issues. Of course the channel is run by sinclair broadcasting, and if any of you out there have the bad luck to be subjected to this station, you know what I mean when I say "I'm Mark Hymen and thats The Point"

If anyone is interested go to the following website http://www.wgme.com/
and send Channel 13 some feedback about not representing the Green Party. And if you live outside of maine Visit your local TV stations website and bitch to them.
