"Gary L. Rose, chairman of the Department of Government at Sacred Hearst University, said that watching the primary returns on Tuesday, Levy’s evening-long double-digit lead over Klarides was quite extraordinary, especially as towns with reputations for educated, moderate party members voted for Levy."

The condescension just drips.

Should we be thinking about the survival of America rather than which bathroom to use? Is the choice of pronouns more important than avoiding a nuclear war? Great minds want to know! /s

“expects that state Republicans will try to change the topic every time Trump’s name comes up on the campaign trail.” If campaigners are smart, they will say “I believe in A, B, C and so does President Trump.” No need to run away from the ideas Trump represents.

“...combined with the FBI raid on Mar-a-Lago...”

That completely swayed my vote this past Tuesday! I voted for the Trump-Endorsed Tim Michels for Governor, over the Pence-Endorsed Rebecca Kleefisch.

That raid on Mar-a-Lago is going to help us a LOT come this fall and 2024.

Never forget! :)

I’ve been told that Blumenthal’s and Murphy’s relationships with certain groups of Muslims, mainly Iranians, isn’t all that private. Apparently it’s no secret.

Are US Senators allowed to do that?

If true, I wonder why the Republican’s in Connecticut aren’t using it?

I thought so too. However, I hope that they keep underestimating the stupid cretins who are Trump supporters (like me). We always do better when we are underestimated.

Because educated and moderates would never support Trump policies right.

Listening to RINO Themis Klarides's concession speech Tuesday night made me extra happy Lora Levy won.

Themis didn't ask her supporters to come along-side of Leora and help her defeat Blumenthal - it was merely four minutes of "I", "I", "I" - sounding like an Obama speech.

Graceless loser.

The day before the election, GOPe representatives were saying Themis Klarides had no need to worry and that even though Trump had endorsed Levy, the endorsement was not really enough to make a difference. I suspect they watched the election results come in while in a state of shock.

The establishment really did not think there was any chance that Klarides could lose. They are used to telling the voters how to vote, and the GOP voters doing as told. It no longer works that way, but they have yet to realize it.

“The condescension just drips.”

One of the lefts favorite phrases is ‘educate yourself’. In other words if you don’t agree with me you’re an uneducated dumb ass. I’ve even seen Freepers use it.

“educated, moderate party members”

Right.

Trump voters are all knuckle dragging, gap toothed bitter clinger deplorables with room temperature IQs.

Not like all us Really Smart Poli Sci and Journalism majors with our sub-1000 SAT scores.

I think you might see some changes in the Northeast in the next few years. Connecticut is a reddish Purple state, but the hellholes (Hartford, New Illegal Haven, Bridgeport) are the cities that find Democratic ballots in the most unusual locations (car trunks, freezers, etc.). I need to check to see what my town (East Hartford), Cow Town (Ellington) and South Windsor voted for.
