The Republican governor of Connecticut, Jody Rell currently has the 5th highest positive job approval rating of any sitting governor at 69% positive. This in a blue state.
3 out of 5 Connecticut congressmen/women are Republicans. They may be moderate northeastern Republicans but for the fall its numbers in the Republican caucus that will determine control of the Senate and the national agenda. The Republicans need numbers and can sort out ideology later.
