Chris Murphy throws hat into ring for the Senate
If this guy gets elected, he could be our senator for decades, as he is 37 years old now, and would be 39 if January of 2013.

2. I think after his embarrassing loss in the gubanatorial primaries
he's likely done in politics in terms of running for office.

3. Chris Murphy is my representative and would be the best choice for CT.
I much prefer him over Susan Bysiewicz for many reasons.

5. Good, I'd like to work for him.
My hometown is in his district. If I didn't have to move, first to the 1st, then the 2nd Congressional Districts, he'd be my Representative.

7. Chris Murphy has just been reborn a Progressive
I registered for his teleconferences a couple of years ago, and Chris Murphy declared that we could not expect the government to do much in creating jobs, and that he subscribed to the capitalistic system to do such.

Now I detect a more liberal position since running for the senate. Consequently, I do not trust him to be as Progressive once he attains a seat in the Senate. I expect he will be another Obama.

I think Susan Bysiewicz may be more Progressive than Chris Murphy: we should make all the candidates take a lie detector test, shouldn't we?
