Maybe we don’t even need the poll, as the Dump Dodd guys will even admit that Big Dick would win by a minimum of 60%-40%.

I bet even the GOP candidates would admit that Blumie wins in a runaway… although with $30 million… Linda may be able to give Blumie an interesting run for the open seat… and almost certainly is a concern for our AG.

But as we both know… there’s only one person responsible for creating this race.

>>If Dodd retires it will be Blumenthal, not Murphy. Oh please please please; can that be true? According to a guy named Pesci that I know, "The Competitive Enterprise Institute rated Blumenthal as the worst attorney general in the United States." This explains why.

If Dodd retires it will be Blumenthal, not Murphy.

The Party will want to put an end to the McMahon/Simmons nonsense, and Big Dick would do that the moment he announced.

It being an off-cycle has a lot to do with it. That, and the fact that Blumenthal has behind him twenty years worth of statewide name recognition.

Do you think Quinnipiac will ever get around to polling Blumenthal v. Simmons and Blumenthal v. McMahon, Caligiuri, or Foley?

Maybe we don’t even need the poll, as the Dump Dodd guys will even admit that Big Dick would win by a minimum of 60%-40%.

Scoop, I reject the premise of your argument. Murphy may be a Senator by 2010.

Lieberman doesn’t live here anymore. He moved to DC a long time ago, and if he spends more than 30 days a year in Connecticut I’d be very, very surprised.

Anyway, this is Lieberman’s first big step towards switching parties. The question for the CT GOP is whether they will have him.

What say you wingers. Will you settle for Lieberman against Murphy in 2012? Or will you field a real Republican for another exciting race?

If this is supposed to make us like Dodd more because he’s such a good listener, nice try, Genghis, but I ain’t buyin’.

I’m no Lieberman fan, but a Senator doesn’t need to conduct a listening tour to hear from people. Listening to people can be done at the gas station, the grocery store, the coffee shop and, of course, your fave… the library!
