Yep. I lived in Ct then. Sat in endless lines and paid four tolls a day. Maddening.

Finally in the late 80s the tolls came down after a trailer truck killed seven people at a toll.

Ever since, liberals have been jonesing about reinstalling the tolls. Looks like they’re going to get their way only ten times worse.

One of the happiest days of my life was when I put Ct in my rear view.

Bizzarro. Has a chance. Needs help in redistricting to win in 2022 and forward.

Parents were Italian immigrants

The 65-team Big Dance is near.

No teams from ILL that I see. Again.
Vermont could be only team from New England. Likely one and done.

NY has a bunch of teams alive. Buffalo is the only one that’s good.

It’s not Lowell Weicker, it is Lowell Wackjob...

When I lived there 30 years ago, we had a Republican Senator (Wackjob) who acted more like a Democrat, and a Democrat Senator (Liebermann) who acted more like a Republican.

And no state Income Tax on earned income until after I left, when Weicker became the Governor, IIRC.

When Democrats are in charge for a while, they start to believe they are bullet-proof. They start picking people’s pockets and people resent it.

CA Republicans should convince CA Democrats to pass outrageous car taxes. The Hispanics will vote them out.

Draw the usual triangle-circle from Mich to Tex to FlA.

15 of 16 sweet teams likely inside.
South to dominate.

We could root for Wofford and Buffalo.
Or all cinderellas.
