With a little more information in hand -- despite all the talk at the Capitol -- I'm skeptical that Johanna Petit Chapman is going to take on Senator Tom Colapietro this year.
It may still happen, but it doesn't appear likely.
So if there's anyone else out there with an itch to run for state Senate, the coast may be clear.

I heard she wants to run against Betty Boukus instead because she is easier to beat, since Tom has the unions in his pocket.
ReplyDeleteThis would be better. Say good-bye to liberal, union-lackey, education-panderer Betty.
ReplyDeleteAgain the Republicans are less than focused and organized.
ReplyDeleteGreat confidence building.
Run Barnes, run.
ReplyDeleteRon Burns for Senate.

ReplyDeleteAre you kidding?
He says he has too many irons in the fire, which prevents him from making ANY decision..
Stortz for Senate!!
ReplyDelete"Again the Republicans are less than focused and organized"
ReplyDeleteOh and the Democrats are against any solid Republican (like Hamzy)? Or how about John Distephano, was he well-organized? How's Ned Lamont doing these days?
Don't lump the Plainville GOP in the same group as the Bristol GOP. It's a whole different animal.
PS: Watch whate you say about this lady. Or you'll be sorry
I would much rather have Stortz run for mayor again!
ReplyDeleteMe too!
ReplyDeleteStortz is all done politically. Bill Stop blowing up you own ego
ReplyDeleteI hope he isn't done yet!
ReplyDeleteAnd I am sure I am not alone.
You aren't.
ReplyDeleteRepublicans for Stortz? Why didn't you endorse him then ? You guys are just full of them aren't you? (I mean that and jokes too)
ReplyDeleteIt was Mocabee, Schaffrick et al that did not want Stortz.
ReplyDeleteCity wide he had a lot of support.
So I guess it was those three that ran the republican party and the rest had nothing to say about Stortz? What good is the party then unless they advocate a dictatorship.

ReplyDeleteI'd say that that was just about it.
The rest of us had nothing to say about much of anything. All they wanted was our money.
So far the Republicans have nobody in the 77th, 79th, and 31st.
ReplyDeleteCould be a clean swwep for the democrats!
Go Republicans.
Any update on candidates?
ReplyDeletePrediction:
ReplyDeleteRepublicans will put up a name(s) like they did last time for council and that person will back out and not be replaced.
It would be nice if they at least got approval to do so.

ReplyDeleteThe Republicans did even worse, they are putting up Geladino.
Couldn't get Yarde, settled for next best, Geladino.
ReplyDeleteSoon to be a household word.
Go get em Mr. Barnes.
Run Cockayne, run!
ReplyDeleteYeah Cockayne run so we can get rid of you and now that we know you we'll have a second shot at you.

ReplyDeleteAmen!!!
Betcha Colapietro is sleeping pretty comfortable now.
