I think this may be a publicity stunt.

[dalebert]

looks like a stunt...does anyone know if this is serious?

[TSgt]

[fso301]

I’d just as soon that anything having to do with fake wrestling not run as a Republican

[CT-Freeper]

It’s pretty serious. Se resigned as CEO of WWE. She’s already got her foot partway in the Connecticut political scene by being appointed to the State Board of Education by Governor Rell. She’s got millions of her on $$ to finance her campaign.

Dodd better watch out - she’ll be a strong contended if she wins the primary. Of course, I’m supporting Caligiuri - but that’s another story.

[TheThinker]

Short-term fix at best.

[Two Kids' Dad]

It doesn’t matter if it starts as a publicity stunt or if it’s a legit run, as long as Dodd loses his job.

Fake wrestling is more entertaining than fake senatoring, though I don’t really like either.

[Lazamataz]

Jimmy Carter suspects racism is what is driving this.

[chris haney]

I hope she is nothing like Jesse Ventura.

[Ann Archy]

STUPID....BEYOND STUPID!! McMahon needs to be ashamed for this bad joke. NO ONE in the Pub Party will vote for this.....so you get Dodd again!! Thanks, lady....IDIOT!

[screaming eagle2]

maybe a stunt,maybe not

[MitchellC]

Terrible, terrible, terrible idea. Let Linda McMahon's own political contributions clue us in as to what her principles are:

Our Common Values PAC is or was run by Rahm Emmanuel.

Forward Together PAC belongs to Mark Warner.

[Venturer]

You dont like her? Vote her out in the primary’s.

[Darren McCarty]

RINO, conservative, or in-between, Linda McMahon doesn't have a chance no matter what her views are. All her opponents need to do is show clips of the WWE. I don't think many independents, especially independent women are going to vote for her once all the clips of "puppies" from the show are going to air.

Democrats won't vote for her because of all the comments about Gore and Lieberman from back in 2000 when I watched the show. King and JR took a ton of shots at them.

[bamahead]

Possible Schiff ping.

[JrsyJack]

I smell another Rahm Emanuel bait-and-switch going on. Rahmbo recruited all the “conservative” Dems that ran in 2006, once elected they dove left at the command of Pelosi.

[Bokababe]

Doesn't mention Peter Schiff, who is also running.

[cake_crumb]

Worked for Ventura...

[Norman Bates]

I think it needs to be clarified in the title exactly who is running. It’s Linda McMahon, but you could go down 20 posts and still believe some babe named Stephanie McMahon is running. Complete confusion.

Thanks!

[Tzimisce]

I’d vote for her.

Course, I’d vote Ronald McDonald if the other guy was Dodd....
