Rell likely to run again in 2010

[NewJeffCT]

According to Colin McEnroe today - Jodi Rell is likely going to run for re-election in 2010. Unfortunately, I don't think many Dems have the stomach for a tough race against her.

1. You know what would be interesting?

Someone convincing Holy Joe to run. Personally, given his stance on domestic issues (not bad) and the fact he's probably enjoy being a bigger fish in a smaller pond, it might not be a terrible idea. It would be a great way to get him out of federal politics (and foreign policy) 2 years early anyway.

Just thinking outload. :)

4. Because most CT voters distrust the Dem controlled Legislature

That distrust is rooted in the early 1990 state Income Tax battle. CT did have a state income tax until the early 1990's. The battle over that tax is when the Republicans smeared Democrats and helped breed the distrust of a One-party controlled legislature. The Democrats have not really overcome that smear so most CT voters would rather have power split in CT -- Repukes control the governorship and Dems control the Legislature.
