CHRIS SHAY'S IS SHOCKED BY NEIL VIGDOR AND THE GREENWICH TIME'S FAKE, FRAUDULENT AND PHONY "EXCLUSIVE" NEWS STORY
Former Rep. Christopher Shays (R-CT), who was defeated for re-election in the 2008 Democratic wave after 21 years in office, has announced that he will run for Senate in 2012, to succeed retiring Democratic-aligned independent Sen. Joe Lieberman.
As the Greenwich Time "Exclusively" reports, Shays moved to Maryland soon after his 2008 defeat. A check of the voter rolls show that he was re-registered as a Connecticut voter just this past Friday in Bridgeport, where he and wife bought a condominium last year when he was considering a run for governor.
Greenwich Time called the story a Hearst Newspaper exclusive, but ......
Greenwich Roundup first read the Greenwich Time reporter Niel Vidgor's big so-called "EXCLUSIVE" weeks ago on a Wilton newspaper's website. Maybe, Greenwich Time reporter Neil Vigdor moonlights as a cross dressing reporter who goes by the name of May O'Leary .....
McMahon, Shays among Republicans interested in Lieberman's Senate seat
He is likely to be in a primary fight with Linda McMahon, who was the GOP candidate for U.S. Senate in 2010 when she lost to Democrat Richard Blumenthal despite spending $50 million of her own funds for a primary and the general election.
Sources close to McMahon, the former World Wrestling Entertainment executive, Friday said there is no doubt she will give it another try now that U.S. Sen. Joseph I. Lieberman, I-Conn. is not seeking re-election.
McMahon also told The Associated Press she’s “leaning strongly” toward getting into the race and will make a final decision within the next six weeks.
Shays moved to Maryland after losing his congressional seat in the 4th District to Democrat Jim Himes in 2009, but he and his wife bought a condominium in Bridgeport last year.
"Betsi and I excited to be back in Connecticut," Shays, told the paper. "These are all the steps that I am taking so that I can have the opportunity to run for Senate. I hope to be on the ballot next November."
A moderate Republican, Shays was a main sponsor of campaign finance reform legislation in the early 2000s. He only narrowly won re-election in the Democratic wave of 2006, with the debate centering around his strong support for the Iraq War, and then was narrowly defeated in the second Democratic wave of 2008.
Shays will likely face a primary against former World Wrestling Entertainment CEO Linda McMahon, who was the unsuccessful Republican nominee in the 2010 Senate race, and has been eyeing the 2012 contest. On the other side, the Democratic primary is currently between former Connecticut Secretary of State Susan Bysiewicz, Rep. Chris Murphy, and state Rep. William Tong.
Shays will likely face an uphill battle against former Worldwide Wrestling Entertainment CEO Linda McMahon in the Republican primary. McMahon spent $50 million of her own money on her 2010 Senate bid, but lost to now-Sen. Richard Blumenthal (D-Conn.).
The big problem with this Greenwich Time Chris Shay's piece is that ....
