Based on my phone call they now know who they are running against--Courtney from Vernon. The guy was very thankfull for the heads up and forwarded my e-mail to Simmons.
What a lie. They've known its going to be Courtney for months:
"In Connecticut, former state Rep. Joe Courtney (D) raised $137,000 in his challenge to Rep. Rob Simmons (R), who raked in $149,000 in the last six months of 2001. As of Dec. 31, Simmons had $337,000 left in his coffers, while Courtney had $122,000 ." LINK
