Searching The Ballot For Worthy Republicans
The Hartford CourantLet me tell you something you don't know about me. I'm itchin' to vote for a Republican. This is really true. I mostly vote Democratic, but it seems healthier to me to occasionally cast a vote the other way. I don't like being a knee-jerk Democrat. Or...Tags: Martha Dean, Elections, John Boehner, Democratic Party, Parties and Movements

State Fiscal Crisis Needs Sex Appeal
The Hartford CourantWe have some kind of looming fiscal crisis here in Connecticut, but I don't know much about it because a) it is not a cliff and b) it is not as interesting as other things I could conceivably know about. On the first point, I blame whoever started...Tags: John Allen, Brad Pitt, Tampa, FBI, Ben Barnes

UConn Salary Bloat Wins National Notice
The Hartford CourantUniversity of Connecticut President Susan Herbst thinks she and her college are not famous enough, and last week she did something about it. She hired Tysen Kendig as the university's new publicity mogul for $227,500. But before Tysen Kendig —...Tags: University of Connecticut, University of Pittsburgh, Patrick Dempsey, Bloomberg L.P., Education

McMahon's Boat Sinks Into Sea Of Millionaires
The Hartford CourantTake a moment to feel sorry for me. My stock in trade is making fun of ridiculous politicians. I lost Linda McMahon and Joe Lieberman in one night. Guys like Chris Murphy are bad for business. If he gets Quicken installed on his laptop, he's probably...Tags: Waterbury, Services and Shopping, Chris Murphy, Charles, Prince of Wales, U.S. Army

Malloy's Softer Side Struggling To Get Free
The Hartford CourantCan Sandy help Dan? Before the latest storm struck, the approval rating of Gov. Dannel P. Malloy had crept up to 45 percent, vs. 41 percent who disapprove of his job performance. That was an Oct. 24 Quinnipiac poll, and it was an epic head-above-water...Tags: Government, Chris Christie, Executive Branch, Dyslexia, Politics

McMahon And Obama Go Together Like R's And D's
The Hartford CourantThis is my last chance to tell you what I think about the coming election, because The Courant enforces a period of editorial neutrality right before the vote. So here are a few things I think. I think it's damn strange the way Linda McMahon ran a...Tags: Bridgeport (Fairfield, Connecticut), Chris Murphy, Elections, Politics, Linda McMahon

McMahon May Have A Plan, But No Good Answers
The Hartford CourantEvery few years, it's time again to point out that Mark Davis is necessary. The veteran WTNH newsman is part Sam Donaldson and part Ron Burgundy with a dash of sportscaster Jim Gray. He has a knack for barking out questions that make politicians...Tags: New London (New London, Connecticut), Linda McMahon, World Wrestling Entertainment Inc., Mitch McConnell, Credit and Debt

Seems Higher Ed HQ Is Located On The Dark Side
The Hartford CourantI'm going to say something that may sound a little strange, but it explains some pressing mysteries. A state building — located at 39 Woodland St. in Hartford — is possessed by evil spirits and possibly even Satan himself. The building houses...Tags: Colleges and Universities, Southern Connecticut State University, Dannel P. Malloy

Murphy's Starting To Look Like Underdog
The Hartford CourantThursday dawned gray and rainy for Democrats in Connecticut. The previous night, a wooden replica of President Obama stood before the nation blinking helplessly while Mitt Romney became the life of the party. And when their eyelids fluttered opened in...Tags: Chris Murphy, Linda McMahon, World Wrestling Entertainment Inc., Democratic Party, Parties and Movements

Throwing The Flag On Connecticut Candidates
Earlier this week, for one brief shining moment, our badly divided republic came together so gloriously that Paul Ryan and Barack Obama were finishing each other's sentences. Everybody agreed that the replacement refs were ruining professional football....Tags: Chris Murphy, Elections, Football, National Football League, Democratic Party

Worst Deadbeat? Too Close To Call
The Hartford CourantEverything is so close! The U.S Senate race is too close to call and so is the argument about who is the bigger deadbeat. Your choices: A) Chris Murphy, who appears to have fallen behind, at various times, on his rent, his mortgage, his property taxes,...Tags: Waterbury, New London (New London, Connecticut), Elections, U.S. Postal Service, Bankruptcy

Time For Murphy To Get Off The Canvas
The Hartford CourantRemember the scene in "Witness" where the local bullies start taunting the Amish in their carts? One of them paints the face of Alexander Godunov with his ice cream cone. They're knocking off straw hats. And Harrison Ford clambers down out of the jitney...Tags: Zappos.com, Chris Murphy, Elections, Charlie Brown (fictional character), Harrison Ford
