Donations

The campaign is up on Slatecard.com, a great new website for those of us who run with the elephants.

Please give generously. It’ll take ideas to beat Kennedy but, as much as I hate it that money is the mother’s milk of politics, It’ll take cash, as well.

Media Fun

It’s been a bit of a whirlwind since last Monday. We announced and had some good press in the Providence Journal. The story can be seen at:

We also got some time on WPRO with Dan Yorke on both Tuesday and Wednesday. Dan and I slugged it out a bit but the end result was a bit of money pledged and some supportive emails.

We got more in the Journal after the Thursday night convention win and a few articles in the local papers. We’ll have links to all of those as the regular web site gets up and running next week.

I’ve been on the phone almost constantly since Monday’s release went out. All press is good press.

On Sunday, I was on ABC 6 with Jim Hummel. Loved the discussion but we’re going to have to talk to someone about that camera angle!

Keep an eye out and let us know what you see. It was a great start and we’ve had some great feedback.

I’m Back

As I said before, I’ve been a bad blogger. I wanted to keep everyone up to date on my thought process as I decided whether to run or not.

We’ve been preparing for a race for two years now – a federal race. I ran against Congressman Kennedy in 06 because I didn’t think he was looking out for the people. He looks out for the government. It is the family business, after all. None of that has changed. We started something in 06 and i want to finish it. It’s as simple as that.

I’ve had a busy couple of days with non stop interviews on radio and for the newspapers. More of the same today and we have the RI GOP convention tonight. I have a speech to prep and a couple of meetings thrown in. There’s always those donation calls to make, as well. Email us at scottricongress@yahoo.comand join that donor list because we can’t beat a Kennedy on handshakes alone.

I’ll be back soon. Hopefully I can pry some time out and let folks in on a little background as it applies to the exploratory process.

Keep an eye here. The website will be up soon and this blog will become just a part of it rather than the front page. Keep in touch too. Post your comments and email us. Together, we can change the system. Together we can start the revolution.
