Q&A With Mayor Malloy
Mayor Malloy, welcome to Connecticut Local Politics. People should post questions here. I will make the attempt to post as many questions from previous posts/email as I can.
"What specific initiatives does he propose to ensure that all Connecticut residents have access to health insurance? How will he enhance the HUSKY program?
What will he propose to fix the flaws in the CT spending cap? (eg, its incentives to continue cutting spending even when the economy recovers)?"
An emailer who wishes to remain anonymous has asked:
"What do you think of the eminent domain decision about New London? Do you think it should be legal for the government to take peoples homes for private deveopment?"
"Please ask Mr. Malloy what he plans to do about economic development, intra-state tax allocation, as well as education-dollar-sharing between wealthy and less affluent communities."

What about Blumenthal?
I will be asking questions for those who can't make it right now:
Ebpie wants to know:
"If he is elected, does he intend to adhere to the state's constitution or merely view the cap as a "suggesstion" as many Democrats do?"

Is crime going to be an issue in this race?

Some of this you've answered already, of course.
DeanFan84 would like to know about your affiliation with the DLC, a group he blames for the downfall of Howard Dean. He said:
"Please ask him why he is still a member of that corporatist, Republican-Lite, DINOsaur organization called the DLC."
Anonymous--What did I say about the snark? Let's try to be civil.
All right, we are just about out of time. Thanks very much to Mayor Dan Malloy of Stamford, we all appreciate your willingness to talk to us today.
