cgg said... I don't rate ethics as a high priority for the primary, but would like to see it front and center in the general election, espcially for the Gov. race.
It's got to be 1st.
Most issues simply are not right or left they are right or wrong.
Most honest people (take a look at the vast number of bills that are passed with massive margins) wind up coming to the same conclusion when there's no "outside" influence.
I've crossed over for more than one Dem that I knew for sure was drop dead straight even knowing that I could expect to disagree with him over half the time on ideological issues.
It just makes sense.
Besides, if the candidate's a weasel nothing they say really matters anyway.
Rell is going down said... " You are a republican, and want to talk about ethics? "
Sure no problem for me - I was on the outs the whole time Johnny was in charge - I'm an old Dick Bozzuto guy and most of us were put out to pasture during the JR rein of terror.
" Lisa Moody is "
Knock it off already with Lisa; I've known that poor girl for 20 plus years and you haven't a clue.
" If it comes down to ethics, Malloy and DeStefano are both in good shape.
I owned a business in New Haven that was robbed of over a 200 grand; the "perp" was a known source for the NH police and as such they refused to even take a report. So far I've spent over 10K on atty's alone to get him prosecuted. A victim should not have to pay attys to get prosecution. New Haven is flat out corrupt from the top down and I have the canceled checks to my attys that I should never have had to write to prove it.
I know little of Malloy save for the fact that he represents a lower Fairfield County town. As a resident of central CT I tend to view all of lower FFC as a pack of arrogant stuffed shirts - so far those I've met from there have not disappointed me; while the rest of Connecticut is close enough to utopia for me to pass for it.
I love Connecticut, friendly as all get out, pretty, loads of nice little towns. It's fabulous.
It's just lower Fairfield County and New Haven I can't stand.
Jodi is not JR - and she never was. What the public sees on TV is who she is in private as well. She's the real deal and has done a decent job so far and will I think continue to for as many years as she's willing to take the job. We're lucky to have her.
ACR - What is the margin of error in an online poll of 59 (or 52) Democrats (that includes Republicans)? I bet it is too big to extrapolate what is or isn't revealing about Democrats...

The lack of concern over ethics by Democrats is quite revealing.

ACR...there are crooks and unethical people....
Yes - so why does that rate so low in the poll here?
Clearly not a concern at all to you.
Oh....I forgot, you'll just call in the feds at the drop of a hat won't you?

If only you could show me where I've ever used all caps; as I haven't a clue what you're rambling about.
