It doesn't matter to the uninformed Republican, Rino or Unaffiliated Connecticut voter. Janet is a pretty face. That's all that matters now. American Idol, movie news and more.

If she had been one of the Manson Family and just released from prison, if the GOP backed her, she would still be the darling of the District 2 electorate.

Both she and Dubitsky were recruited and reregistered for the sole purpose of defeating Novak, a true outsider and tea party conservative. Novak's defeat also reveals the weakness of the Diustrict 2 Tea Party, that failed to endorse her early on. People would have identified with her better if she had been strongly supported by the Tea Party, not just some of it's more active members.

While I very much appreciate you and your group's efforts (and I plan to order more bumper stickers soon!), I'm not overly fond of Tea Party groups endorsing candidates... it can cause "members" of these groups to become divided, thus the group becomes weaker. To me the Tea Party movement is a more grassroots, independent one, more focused on returning to the principles of the Constitution and ousting corrupt-o-crats (admittedly mostly Democrats) like Chris Dodd and (hopefully) Dick Blumenthal.
