A Bristol
Democrat who’s running for state Senate wound up with a dead center seat on the
stage, a few rows behind President Obama.
“He’s taller
than I thought he was,” said Dave Roche, president of the Connecticut Building
Trades and Construction Council.
Roche said
he was surrounded by Central Connecticut State University students, many of
them studying political science. All of them, he said, were upbeat.
“Everybody
was excited” to eyeball the president, Roche said.
He said he
was happy to hear what Obama had to say as well.
“It’s great to see a president that’s pushing
tobring people up instead of trying to take away or push people down,” Roche
said. “A rising tide raises all ships.”
