02/17/10 The Linda McMahon Nation Is Mobilizing: Get Your Tickets For Linda's U.S. Senate Debate

Hello,

My name is Matt Laconte and I am the Field Director for Linda’s campaign. I am writing you for three reasons: to see if you are interested in attending the Hartford Courant’s U.S. Senate Debate, to keep you updated on the campaign, and to form the volunteer grassroots army that will help Linda win the election!

Debate:

The debate will be held on Tuesday, March 2 at the University of Hartford’s Lincoln Center from 6:30-8:00 PM. This is the debate featuring other Republican candidates for U.S. Senate, including Peter Schiff and Rob Simmons. We want to ensure that Linda has a strong base of supporters there and would love to have you come. Please reply to this email and let me know if you are interested. Space is limited so please be timely in your response.

Update:

Linda’s is not a politician, she’s a business women who believes we need to change the ways of Washington. As an outsider, Linda is poised to take on another career politician, Attorney General Dick Blumenthal. Linda has attended over 260 events since she launched her campaign, traveling the state meeting with Republican leaders. As you can imagine, 169 towns makes for a lot of miles even in a small state like Connecticut. Those meetings and events have netted a number of key endorsements from around the state that will help solidify Linda’s support this election cycle in a contested primary battle with former Congressman Rob Simmons. Our campaign is very optimistic about our ability to overcome Simmons in the primary and Blumenthal in the General Election. Linda, who has created over 500 jobs in the state, is the only major candidate with an outsider status who can bring the message of out of control spending and job creation to Washington. Stuart Rothenberg, a highly respected political reporter, had this to say in a recent article, “McMahon’s wealth (she has promised to spend tens of millions of dollars), outsider persona, poise and relatively conservative positioning makes her stronger than Simmons in a primary and potentially more of a threat to Blumenthal.” (Stuart Rothenberg, Roll Call, 2/16/10).

Grassroots Efforts:

Linda can’t do this alone; she needs your help to get her message out. I am looking to assemble a team of people in each town that are willing to help in the recruitment of volunteers. We need a reliable and intelligent group to get people in your town involved in Linda’s race from now until Election Day. If you are interested in helping out this effort please reply to this email and let me know!

Thanks,

Matt Laconte

02/17/10 Greenwich Resident Richard Blumenthal Says it is "an open question" whether or not President Obama's services will be requested on the trail

"Richie Grow Some Freaking Democratic Balls"

Blumenthal Distances Himself From President Obama, Who Enjoys A 53 Percent Approval Rating

The Greenwich Democrat Says Obama is "someone who I deeply respect and admire," but also says he has differences with the president's policies.

“I haven’t presumed to ask. I don’t know whether he would and I don’t know whether we would ask. At this point it is an open question," - Greenwich Resident Richard Blumenthal Says The Answer Is Definitely Not Yes When Asked If He Wants Obama To Campaign For Him

Read this speech in the New Haven Register about Richard Blumenthal statements to the Yale University College Democrats.
Aparently The Blumenthal Campaign Has Done The Math
Obama = The Kiss Of Death In CT

Greenwich Resident Richard Blumenthal has repeatedly refused to comment on when asked if the president's appearance would be positive or a negative for his campaign.

Later Greenwich Resident Richard Blumenthal Started To Spin The Story To His Fellow Democrats.....

A spokesperson for Blumenthal said that the campaign is not attempting to break itself off from the White House but is instead focusing on speaking with Connecticut voters.

“I have been independent of Sen. Dodd and everyone else in Washington,” Blumenthal said.

Greenwich Resident Linda McMahon highlighted Blumenthal's remarks in an e-mail.

McMahon has clearly painted Democrat Blumenthal as skittish about backing Obama.
