I'm a democrat and I agree with the previous thread that we need all of our seats occupied by Democrats, but we will have to tolerate Shays a bit longer. Personally, I just don't feel comfortable voting for himes knowing all of the connections he has with Goldman Sachs. It would be naive to think those ties and campaign contributions (over 100,000) won't affect his voting. That isn't what our party is about. Jim Himes is a corporate puppet guised as a Democrat. I'm very upset he won the primary.

Does Ned Lamont live in this district, by any chance?
If he does, shouldn't you guys in CT be trying to convince him to run against Shays? Just a thought. |
