Hope this helps. Visconti's been playing an idiot for the last couple of days.

as long as it helps to not split the vote and defeat the dems

Visconti was a good guy

[GeronL]

Two days before the polls open, unaffiliated candidate for governor Joe Visconti has suspended his campaign and endorsed Republican candidate Tom Foley in a ceremonious display of party unity.

party unity? Joe is not a member, how could it be "party unity"?

Besides, in those states, the parties are nearly identical. I could never live there.

Proof that Visconti is the better candidate.

This gives Foley another 2 pts.
Dems will have to cheat harder.

[ifinnegan]

So how many have all ready voted due to early voting?

[campaignPete R-CT]

none, and you got that info straight from the CT Finnegans

[Daffynition]

If Foley lost, Visconti would have been blamed....now he’ll be blamed for waiting too long to withdraw.

IMHO, this race will be decided by the unaffiliated ....and they are so apathetic, it will be a miracle if Foley pulls it out. Foley never developed a hot-button issue to ignite voters.

If each of us gets just *one* person to go to the polls, it may help.

It looks as if the weather will be nice on Tuesday....that’s a good thing

I wish the AH third party candidate for Virginia senate would bow out!

I’ve been a Ronald Reagan-style Conservative since 1976. I’ve voted Republican since 1968. I love Lt. Col. Rob Maness, the Tea Party candidate in the LA Senate Race. He has polled 3rd behind Bill Cassidy (R) and Senator “Thunder Thighs” Landrieu from the “git-go”. I wish he’d have dropped out and endorsed Cassidy in order to avoid a Run-off. Every Run-off Landrieu has had, she has won. Maness could run for another office next time. But.... not gonna happen.

I could not agree with you more. Maness is a great candidate. He should have suspended campaign and endorsed Cassidy weeks ago.

Unlike Connecticut, Louisiana has a runoff, so why is Maness a problem?

[CPT Clay]

I would like the race over on Tuesday, not 6Dec.

Why should he? He's a Democrat plant, a LINO paid by Dhimmicraps to divide the vote, just as he was and did in the gubernatorial race last year.

[TBP]

What, the Maness people wouldn’t vote for Cassidy in the runoff?

I’m really tired of these Republibots.

[montag813]

Way too late. What a dipshit

[Dr. Sivana]

Some believe that if there are a couple of close races during the lame duck session, it may keep the Dems and even Obama from going bat poop crazy.

> Visconti appeared alongside Foley in Brookfield on Sunday, surprising a crowded room of Foley campaign volunteers. “I called Tom yesterday. I took a look at the polls,” Visconti explained. “I was very concerned that Tom is in the fight for his life. Connecticut is in the fight of its life.”

[MDspinboyredux]

You may be right.

This would have been more helpful last week.

[ExCTCitizen]

I hope Foley will give Visconti a cabinet job...Go Foley...
