Do you trust McMahon? Her website indicates good positions on many issues but....
I like Schiff, at least he’s a conservative on something. But he’s polling in the single digits. What a poor result. Didn’t raise enough money? Running a lousy campaign?
The last poll I’ve seen has McMahon leading Simmons. And doing no worse against the rat. That kinda kiboshes the idea that Simmons is markedly more electable.
Unfortunately this is likely moot. Unlike 1994 there will probably be a freshman rat Senator.
i don’t hafta trust anyone .... just sayin’ if there is a close primary vote Linda vs. Simmons, I’m for Linda. Ignoring the race otherwise.
it’s not a good race for a grassroots pawn like me-self. I’m hoping to do some organizing for a House race. probably CT-5.
NO, Impy, Schiff is NOT Conservative!!
What the Tea Parties are not telling you about Peter Schiff:
Peter Schiff admits on camera that he has ZERO money investigated in American corporations or industry. If Peter Schiff refuses to invest in American companies, how can Peter Schiff say he is helping Americans keep their jobs? In this video berlow, Schiff says that we need MORE immigration and that there are PLENTY of jobs! At 9% unemployment in America, where are the jobs again??
SCHIFF himself admits he believes the Iraq War is a QUAGMIRE in 2009!!

Schiff has said this many times

Aug 7, 2009, Iraq is a quagmire

Peter Schiff repeating talking points of the lunatic left, listen yourself. He says in 2009 that Iraq is a QUAGMIRE when we already won!! He blames the war on bankers and whoever, and not a word about blaming it on terrorists! listen yourself, Schiff repeats left wing talking points to his radio audience about the Iraq war!

Peter Schiff has made open statements that are quite like the statements of the anti-war leftists, to include the OTHER Ron Paul endorsed candidates Rand Paul and Adam Kokesh

I’ve been listening carefully to Schiff, and he had little to say on foreign policy, then he was vague; in the recent Yale series, Part seven, that was on the front page, he seems to have thought through the issues more clearly (beyond his forte’ in finance) and to my ear comes down pretty solidly anti war. Check out that recent video and see what you think.
He’s not Ron Paul, but he seems to be coming along fast. Here’s the link:

Peter Schiff Telegraphs GOP Primary Run
by: tparty Mon Jun 01, 2009 at 11:28:23 AM EDT
Is a Republican Superprimary for Senate in the offing? Addressing the Connecticut Libertarian Party’s convention in Bridgeport this past weekend, Ron Paul acolyte Peter Schiff - who has been the subject of a draft movement by national Paul supporters and has recently made more and more noise himself about possibly challenging Chris Dodd as either a third-party candidate or in a Republican primary - seems to be clearly saying that if he were to run, it would not be as a third-party candidate, but in a Republican Primary:

Nope. Has plenty $$$, raised plenty $$$.
Running a lousy campaign?
"Lousy"? Schiff's campaign is even sleepier than Fred Thompson's in 2008, and THAT was a disappointing snooze-fest if ever there was one.
I like Schiff's economics a lot. (I wouldn't personally vote for him, because I have sworn a long-standing vow never to vote for any pro-abortion candidate. But I do like his economics a lot). But if Schiff treats his own candidacy as a freakin' part-time hobby, why should his supporters put in more work than he does?
McMahon will be much easier for Blumenthal to attack. I honestly think that she has no chance of winning the primary, while Simmons has as good a chance as any CT Republican.
