Politicians on parade

Republican U.S. Senate candidate Linda McMahon and Democratic lieutenant governor hopeful Nancy Wyman are among the politicians slated to walk in Sunday's Mum Parade.
Wyman, the state comptroller, is on the ticket with Dan Malloy, who is taking on Republican Tom Foley for the state's top job.
McMahon is battling with Attorney General Richard Blumenthal for the open Senate seat that Chris Dodd has held for years. Dodd is retiring after this term.
The Malloy campaign is gathering at 12:30 p.m. at 430 North Main St. to get ready for the parade. Those interested in joining Wyman have been asked to check in with Zackery Hyde, 1st congressional district staffer with Malloy campaign by emailing zackhyde@danmalloy.com.
Democrats who are interested can also check this site on Facebook.
Republicans can check in on this Facebook page.
I haven't heard which other statewide or congressional candidates will show up. I'll update this as I learn more.

  3. Where did you find the picture of Ward, Potosa and his union thugs? After all Ward turned City Hall into a Circus a few weeks ago!

    I know that the make-up must be confusing you cuz we all know that the real clown at City Hall is McCauley. His center ring performance a few weeks back was absolutely hysterical!

    Attanding the Mum Festival this weekend I had the opportunity to speak with a few politicans. I'm amazed at how naive and in some caes frankly stupid they were. It's disheartening and concerening.

  7. Richard Covello should have worn a clown costume, or maybe a devil suit. Seeing him brought back unpleasant memories for a lot of people.

  15. The Republican candidates were walking and shaking hands with the crowds, while the Democrats sat in their cars and sometimes waved. Which is the party of the people?

    It is the custom for officials to ride and candidates to walk.

    Hamzy rode, didn't shake hands
