We have run some good candidates like State Senator Lee Bright that would blow lindas doors off but the open primary is a spoiler.

Look at the a-holes Connecticut has in the House and Senate... Ugh. 'Nuff said, right?
The Schumer Shutdown puts people who are not citizens above members of the military.
