— LauraW A couple days ago he said he would stay in, even though he lost the Republican Party nomination.
McMahon's personal fortune, her willingness to spend up to $50 million in the race and her win in the state convention proved too much for Simmons to overcome.
He will still be in the primary.

I wasn't expecting a right winger to win anyway. another scott brown type republican is fine, as long as it means we win back the senate.

I'm pretty sure McMahon is to the right of Simmons. I think he probably would have been the stronger nominee, but at least she can spend a lot of dough.

He will still be in the primary? Is that to allow Schiff to make a primary challenge, or is it just going through the motion?

I love Peter Schiff....wish I had listened to him though...

Agreed, but let's hope that the left-tard agenda still doesn't get mostly passed under the banner of "bipartisanship".
The Repubs need to be the party of "no".

Probably just means its too late to take his name off the ballots.

Well...
"Linda McMahon donated $10,000 to the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee on September 26, 2006, a contribution that helped Joe Courtney weeks before his win against Rob Simmons for the Second Congressional District."
And someone sent her to dispose of him again. I guess he's just not RINO enough.
And she's a friend of and frequent contributor to some guy named Rahm Something.
NOTHING TO SEE THERE.

I doubt McMahon is a liberal so much as an opportunist. A lot of people in business, including some people I know to be very conservative, give to both sides. I would think/hope that she's at least somewhat bound to the positions she takes in the election.
Lauch Faircloth not only gave money to democrats, he was their frickin nominee for governor a few years before he switched and ran for the Senate as a Republican. He ended up with about a 98% conservative voting record. I doubt we'll get anywhere near as lucky with McMahon but I think she'll be at least as reliable as Brown (as opposed to Blumenthal who would vote liberal 98% of the time).

"Republicans could run Rob Simmons, a Connecticut legislator with a distinguished record of service in the House of Representatives, the CIA, and as a Yale political science professor -- who actually did serve in Vietnam, winning two Bronze Stars and retiring as a colonel." - Ann Coulter.
Voters in Connecticut never miss an opportunity to miss an opportunity.

Linda McMahon or Dick Blumenthal?
Might as well be Don King and Al Sharpton.
Good luck with that because IÂ’m not voting.

And why do I give a crap whether the Republicans are in power if the Republicans think Linda McMahon belongs in the US Senate?
