If you want to know what's really going on in Greenwich, then you have to read the out of town newspapers....
"Lights, Camera, Action!"
The campaign season is starting to get explosive, just in time for the Fourth of July. Crank up those fireworks. Check this out from columnist Kevin Rennie at the Hartford Courant:
A film crew appeared on the street in front of Democrat Dan Malloy’s house this week. His campaign didn’t send it. The videographers set up, rolled ‘em, and left. It wasn’t subtle, though they could have waited until Thursday and used an iPhone 4 and never left their car.
Prime suspect: the Lamont campaign. Malloy is on the air with a soft bio ad that features the house he grew up in. The one he lives in now is rather grander. Of course, there was also that investigation four years ago of renovations to his house by a contractor who also did work for the city of Stamford, which Malloy lead as mayor at the time. Malloy cooperated and was found to have done nothing wrong. To his credit, Malloy seemed eager to provide investigators with reams of information. The Lamont campaign will be waiting to launch if they feel a Malloy breakout coming on.
The Lamont campaign hasn’t responded to an inquiry on whether that was its crew at Malloy’s house. We’ll update if it does.
In the meantime, candidates might want to keep their lawn mowed and gardens weeded. Blooming flowers and a trimmed lawn can keep an opponent from making it look like you live at the Bates’ house.
Statement from Roy Occhiogrosso, senior advisor for Malloy campaign:
======================================“Two pretty simple questions for Ned Lamont: did your campaign pay to have someone film and take photographs of Dan Malloy’s house? If so, why?”
