More media coverage for new candidates reduces corruption

Q: Recently certain members of Congress have come under fire for apparently shady dealings with lobbyists. Do you feel lobbying reform is needed and, if so, what would you see done?

A: Typical Washington corruption. The pressures must be intense to get re-elected. I would like to see new candidates like myself get more even media coverage, but I don't want to complain.
