06/22/10 Former Massachusetts Governor and Tax Cutter Bill Weld Endorses Tom Foley

Tom Foley for Governor

Former Massachusetts Governor William Weld
Endorses Tom Foley for Governor

Stamford, Conn., -- Former Massachusetts Governor William Weld today announced his endorsement of Tom Foley for Governor of Connecticut. William Weld was the highly respected Governor of Massachusetts from 1991 to 1997.

"I support Tom Foley for Governor," said Governor Weld. "I know from experience that it is possible to bring a state back from the brink of financial ruin if you have the right person in office. Connecticut needs a strong leader who is not part of the political establishment in Hartford to get the state back on track. Tom is that leader. He has a viable plan to turn the state around and the experience to execute it effectively."

The endorsement of Governor Weld, coupled with the most recent Quinnipiac Poll showing Tom leading his closest Republican rival by 27 points, shows that Tom's vision and plan for Connecticut are resonating with voters across the state.

Tom released the following statement regarding receiving Governor Weld's endorsement:

"I am very happy to have Governor Weld's endorsement. He is a problem-solver who became Governor of Massachusetts at a time when the state was in a position much like the one Connecticut faces now. Its bond rating was low, unemployment was high, and its state legislature was borrowing money to pay for its fiscal recklessness. Governor Weld was able to bring Massachusetts back from financial disaster by reducing expenses, improving the business climate, and bringing back jobs and the economy. That is exactly what Connecticut needs to do now. I have the experience, leadership, and plan to reduce our state government's wasteful spending, make us more employer friendly, and get Connecticut working again."

Tom Foley for Governor's full list of public endorsements to date can be found here.

RICK TORRES' STATEMENT ON BALLOT QUALIFICATION
Rick Torres, who is running for the Republican nomination in Connecticut's 4th District, the seat currently held by Jim Himes, has issued the following statement on the Secretary of State's announcement regarding ballot qualifiers today.
Torres is excited to have his ideas aired alongside those of fellow Republicans Robert Merkle and Dan Dibecella.
"This is going to be an exciting race and, I believe, a definitive race for the nation. The voters of Connecticut's Fourth have clear choices between a candidate who has as his base, the Republican establishment and a candidate who has the support of some of the louder voices in the Tea Party movement. In me they have a third choice: a candidate who derives his support from regular folks across the District who just simply want to be left alone to raise their families and run their businesses."
"I have struggled and fought from the time that my family fled Cuba and have risen from the oppression of the public housing system to have my name on a ballot for United States Congress. It is really quite an honor and I am happy that the voters had the faith in me to sign my nomination papers"
"It is an interesting year to be in a race. So many want to hold on to their power and others are just swinging wildly because they are angry. We need a reasoned dialogue with the people because it is their lives and their freedoms that are at stake here.
Insiders must put aside their allegiances and some in the debate must tone down their anger.

We need to come up with real solutions to restore our nation to her place as a shining light for democracy around the globe."
Torres, who was born in Bridgeport, moved back to his family's native Cuba when he was a young boy. It took his father five years after Fidel Castro came to power to secure permission to return to America's shores. In 1967, Rick and his brother were brought back to Bridgeport—with not much more than the clothes on their backs.

06/22/10 Greenwich Banker Robert Steel To Be Mayor Bloomberg's Development Role Choice

If You Want To Know What's Going On In Greenwich You Have To Read The Out Of Town Newspapers

Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg is expected to announce Tuesday that he has selected a former Wall Street banker from Greenwich as the next deputy mayor for economic development,

The New York Times’s Charles V. Bagli reported, citing administration and business officials.

The banker, Robert Steel, worked at both Goldman Sachs and Wachovia and served as under secretary for domestic finance in the federal Treasury Department during the financial crisis in 2007 and 2008.

Mr. Steel, 58, who lives in Greenwich, Conn., will replace Robert C. Lieber, also a former banker, who announced his departure last month.

Kathryn S. Wylde, president of the Partnership for New York City, a business group, said Mr. Steel’s selection served as a signal that Mr. Bloomberg would not be coasting to the end of his term.

“It’s a terrific choice,” Ms. Wylde said. “He understands the challenges, particularly those facing the financial services industry. It’s somebody who can really make sure that we retain our stature in the world of global finance.”

A spokesman for the mayor, Stu Loeser, declined to comment on the appointment on Monday, The Times said.

Mr. Bloomberg has often gone outside government circles to pick top members of his administration. He recently appointed Stephen Goldsmith, a former mayor of Indianapolis and a management expert, to succeed Edward Skyler as deputy mayor for operations, despite his unfamiliarity with New York.

But now Mr. Bloomberg has added a deputy mayor who will have to learn quickly about the complexity and limitations of government’s role in stimulating economic development. At the same time, he will have to balance the city’s often difficult relationship with the governor’s office over major projects, including ground zero, Battery Park City and the convention center.The banker, Robert Steel, worked at both Goldman Sachs and Wachovia and served as under secretary for domestic finance in the federal Treasury Department during the financial crisis in 2007 and 2008.
