| Description | A forum with Republican candidates seeking to replace Sen. Edward M. Kennedy failed to attract a crowd this morning even among what should be a strong GOP base - the business community.
In a possible sign of the Republican Party’s slim chance of winning the seat, less than 60 business leaders attended a debate between state Sen. Scott Brown (R-Wrentham) and businessman Jack E. Robinson at a Greater Boston Chamber of Commerce breakfast at the Langham Hotel today.
Last month, more than 500 people packed a similar session with Democratic Senate candidates featuring Attorney General Martha Coakley, U.S. Rep. Michael Capuano (D-Somerville), Alan Khazei, co-founder of City Year, and Stephen Pagliuca, managing partner and co-owner of the Boston Celtics. |
