The party of the little guy strikes again.

[Swanks]

was killed on a mostly 22-11 party-line vote in the Democratic-controlled Senate.

Excellent. A stick to beat them with in 2006 elections....

[xzins]

Proof that liberal democrats are socialists bent on total state ownership.

[pas]

Every State needs to make them get on record whether they are for or against this.

[Gay State Conservative]

The breathtakingly wealthy progressives of Greenwich,New Canaan and Darien know that they have nothing to fear from this,so......"don't worry,be happy...."

[jwalsh07]

FAscism run amuck in Ct.

[Peach]

So the Democrats are on board with towns just taking people's homes. Make sure this article gets e-mailed to everyone you know.

[Rodney King]

Somebody with a DU account needs to post this over there.

[Ciexyz]

The Democratic Party -- the domain of big corporations, fat cats, bribes, back-room deals, big lawyers, palm-greasing, special interests to the detriment of the common person -- we know the score now.

[The_Victor]

Clear evidence of who is on which side. Party of the little guy my @$$!

[bert]

Why do the Rats keep taking by eminent domain when the will soon have the Subbase at Groton to pass around to the developers?

[Glenmerle]

This is clear evidence of who the Democrats really are. But will the people of Connecticut wake up and smell the coffee? I doubt it. Old habits, even when they go against your best interests, die hard.

[teacherwoes]

It would be interesting to check in on Connecticut later and see if the new tax base is working or not. But the question that I've never seen answered is "What happens if the new tax base doesn't work out?"

[caver]

It appears that 2/3rds of Connecticut is composed of Dems & Libs. Sounds like the state gets what they deserve. See if they vote different the next time around.

[linkinpunk]

22-11 party-line vote in the Democratic-controlled Senate.

The DUmmies have been saying all week that the GOP was in favor of the eminent domain court ruling and the Democrats were the ones who would be fighting for the little guy.

This goes to show how gullible they are.

[Lazamataz]

Any person who voted for a land-grab free-for-all is a DOMESTIC ENEMY OF THE CONSTITUTION, with all the inherent dangers therein.

[JLS]

Could SCOTUS have given the GOP a winning issue for the state legislatures in 2006?

[tiger-one]

To the people of CT, the value of your property has been reduced by the action of the SCOTUS and your commie legislators. In mass, you must flood your tax assessors offices demanding a reduction in your taxes.

"Do not let the enemy pick the site of the next battle"

[Saundra Duffy]

Correct me if I'm wrong. Aren't ALL of us - from all parties - PO'd about that Supreme Court ruling? The democrats are digging their own graves if they defeat this attempt. Whatever.

[Recovering_Democrat]

The proposal...was killed on a mostly 22-11 party-line vote in the Democratic-controlled Senate.

The House of Representatives, which also is run by Democrats, defeated a similar proposal 82-50.

"Everything is going according to our plan."

The brain dead voters up there getting what they voted for.
