Ann Brickley, the Republican candidate in Connecticut’s first congressional district, is electrifying the conservative blogosphere with news that she is behind Congressman John Larson by only seven points in a recent poll.
“We’ve been saying for quite some time that the seat is competitive,” Brickley tells Battle ’10. So competitive, in fact, that Larson has actually been campaigning. “He was at the Cromwell River Fest; they said he’s never attended that event as a matter of fact,” says Brickley.
If elected, Brickley’s priority would be to “stop all this wasteful spending.” She thinks that the GOP’s “Pledge to America” is a “really good first step” toward this goal but that it needs to go further: “We need an end to earmarks. I think there ought to be term limits too.”
...“We’re also filming a TV ad but we haven’t made a decision based on the cost of that,” Brickley adds. “If the results based on the poll help us make more money, we’ll be airing an ad.”

I love it!
I wish they would do a poll here in VA for Bobby Scott’s seat. Chuck Smith is trying to unseat him. I’m not seeing any signs for Bobby Scott, so maybe he’s getting complacent and the African-American Republican can sneak up and beat him. I know my daughter lives in that district and she is so excited to have a choice finally. When we lived there, I always left it blank, because no one would run against him. He was one of the main reasons that I wanted to move out of that district.
