Now - that's funny. BL - Blumenthal is an embarrassment to anyone except Connecticut Dems that support him. That's not part of this argument, really, but I'm writing it just because I sense that you support the guy. He's a liar, a cheat and a publicity whore with an interest in advancing his own political position before doing good for the public. I'll save the rhetoric, but every time I get a phone call about my electric rates, I want him out of office. The guy has done more damage to the ability of business to function well in CT effectively with that one publicity stunt action regarding utility rates a while back, than any tax rate could do. He sold it to the public as doing something effective, yet we still have the highest commercial electricity rates of any state in the contiguous U.S.A. Only Alaska and Hawaii have higher commercial electricity rates, and because of Blumenthal's actions, there is essentially no way to get the rates to go down, and the supply and delivery divide and subcontracting is a disaster.
Only one of the many, many things. And I don't care if you don't believe me or not, and I'm not embarrassed one bit. There are people that were named in that lawsuit, that blame Blumenthal, and the University of Connecticut for being sued, and they will not support UCONN in any way again. People behave differently in real life, than they appear to do on legal papers.
