Novak never stood a chance against Peckinpaugh, being the behind the scenes OP(formerly the GOP) elitist hand picked candidate. The OP elites did everything behind the scenes possible to ensure her victory.I admit I didn't follow this race very closely (I'm in the 1st district, and close to towns in the 5th district, which our town used to be a part of). I heard there was a debate, but Novak refused to take part... is that true? Not a good idea if so.
How do you think Peckinpaugh will do vs. Courtney? Is Janet anything close to a conservative??
It's a darn shame about Novak... I was rooting for her. I saw a fair amount of Daria Novak coverage here on FR. She seems to be a true conservative.

It's a darn shame about Novak... Double darn. Daria worked for it. She and her sister were out asking for votes. Peckinpaugh came out of nowhere and late as I recall.

Peckinpaugh certainly has name recognition being an anchor for WFSB (and WTNH IIRC) to give Joe Douchney a run for his money. It appears that she's saying all the right things but I'm going to do a wait and see on this.
One thing that bothers me, and I need to do more homework, is that allegedly Peckinpaugh didn't "become" a republican until the spring of this year. Need to look into that.
Regardless, I've written to Douchney many, many times swearing I would do everything I could to see receive an early retirement package so I guess I need to get to work. I just hope I can use both hands and not have to keep one holding my nose like 2008.

Not by a country mile.
