    Linda McMahon continues to have ties with her husband’s sleazy wrestling business and indeed touts it as her ” business experience.” WWE earlier this year inducted convicted rapist Mike Tyson into its Hall of Fame…..and Linda was there and heartily enjoyed the festivites. For those of us with mothers wives daughters nieces granddaughters etc. is this the type of person you want in the Senate…someone who thinks rape is something to smile about? Becuase that is Linda and Vince McMahon’s idea of entertainment

    Linda McMahon convincingly won two GOP conventions and two GOP primaries. She defeated moderate/liberal former GOP Congressmen in both races. She was unsuccessful in 2010 against former A.G. Blumenthal, who is the wealthiest, most popular and most powerful Democrat in CT. No one on either side of the aisle could have defeated him.

    Linda is now running against a liberal Congressman with a lackluster record who is largely unknown in 80 percent of the state. Chris Murphy is no Dick Blumenthal. Plus, more people across the state have already voted for Linda than Murphy. They know and like her.

    Linda has a solid plan to put people back to work and lower taxes. That’s what voters want in 2012 — more and better jobs, lower taxes, a growing economy, a return to personal financial security, and a plan to achieve fiscal sanity in DC.

    Murphy had six years. He hasn’t succeeded. He doesn’t deserve another six to try to get it right.

    Linda McMahon defeated Chris Shays in the primary in a landslide. The voters decided that winner, and proved that they think she is the better candidate. As of last week, Linda is ahead of Chris Murphy in the polls. I don’t understand the argument that Linda is costing Connecticut two Republican seats. She is clearly the better candidate, when considering the primary and polls alone. Not only that, she is the only candidate in the race who has real private sector experience and has a plan on what she will do to help the economy and to help the hardworking families of Connecticut. I would be interested to see the evidence that led Scarborough to this conclusion, because it just doesn’t make sense to me.
