Weekend Open Forum

The final weekend of the primary campaign winds down with Malloy and Lieberman picking up endorsements from the Norwich Bulletin and The Day of New London. Both Lieberman and Malloy seem to be getting the majority of newspaper endorsements: Malloy's sweep of them is nearly total. There are dozens of other stories out there this morning about both the gubernatorial and U.S. Senate primaries. Meanwhile, a final Quinnipiac Poll is due out tomorrow.

Here are links to some recent stories on this site:

U.S. Senate
Governor

The NH Register endorsed Lieberman today. Has Lamont garnered any endorsements from local media?

The real winner of the Governor's race will be the guy who loses. It should be a relatively close race, and the winner will be crushed by Rell. That will leave the second place finisher in place for 2010, and being able to say "[insert name] had his chance in '06; I told you he couldn't beat the Republican, now it's my turn." His contributors won't be tapped out twice for a losing cause. The loser will sit on his hands, hold back his money, and live to fight another day.

"I'm John DeStefano. I approve this message because I hate George W. Bush more than Dan Malloy"

"Dan Malloy has gotten to the point where he will distort anything to win the election. Frankly, it's desperate, and it's pitiful. It's the kind of thing that will divide Democrats and hurt us in the fall. He ought to just stop it. He knows this is not true, and everyone else knows it's not true, and he's just trying to scare people."-DeStefano

Telling it as it is about Malloy's negative ads and hate mail. The voters don't appreciate that bs ad and mail Dannel and your wake up call will be Tuesday.

I've been hearing a lot of pride in Dan's voice when he says he's been endorsed by the Hartford Courant. Someone should remind him thats the newspaper that endorsed John Rowland three times. I don't think the voters of Connecticut want another episode like that.

DeStefano will have a far better organized ground campaign and I would expect him to win by 10-20 percent.


We certainly hope you're correct.

That should assure us of at least a 60% margin and might increase some coat tail affect.

There you have it: Republicans would rather face John DeStefano than Dan Malloy in November.

If DeStefano wins, the Rell people will continue to whisper around that New Haven is loaded with corruption. It's already started but where's the proof? The only thing I hev seen on this blog ever about it is some business dispute that a member of CT Republican State Central had there that he's tried to pass of as some kind of corruption. Unless they have Kevin O'Connor playing games and holding off on things, it's hard to see how they'd make it stick.

"And then he(Dan Malloy) declares that he made wealthy Stamford one of the 10 best cities in the nation. And it isn't just Malloy being boastful. If you look in the lower left corner of the screen, that lofty designation is attributed to "Self" magazine.

He wants Democrats to make their decisions based on "Self"? That's the monthly periodical that would not so long ago have been called a beauty magazine. The August edition, the cover announces, features stories on "30 Foods that Fight Fat," "Healthy Skin Secrets, Barely There Makeup" and "Make Sex Sizzle and Love Last."

Rosa DeLauro, John Larson, Jim Maloney, Sam Gejdenson, Jesse Jackson, every union in the state... Why don't we just whip 'em out already and see whose is bigger? Both candidates have gotten a lot of endorsements. We get it.
