Refresh my memory -- I think Markey was the one who decided cable TV operators were ripping off the public (can't argue with that!), but once his sponsored "reforms" went through, cable prices (around here anyway) rose by almost 50%.

You are correct on this. This press release is designed to get Markey's name out in front of his constitutents this election cycle. From what I recollect he doesn't even own a house in his district-he's a fulltime potomac bottomfeeder.

I think his last credible oppenent was about 10 years ago.
