WELFARE STATE

Tuesday’s election was best characterized as a Republican tsunami, destroying most Democrats in its wake. Some were able to dodge the white caps, but overall Republican governors were elected in major upsets emerging under conservative mandates. However, there were states where Democrats dodged the proverbial bullet; for instance Connecticut. Known as the Constitution State, but for many citizens, the new state moniker is the “Welfare State.”govmalloy

Connecticut, once the envy of all, where high salaries, booming industry and good quality of life was predominant; no more, voters handed the Democrat Governor a ticket to govern for four more years.  Even Illinois, Obama’s home state saw the light – they handed the reins to a Republican. Connecticut and Illinois are similar to the effect that both are dead broke. Expect the Blue states to drink more of the cool aide, but the hand writing is on the wall; they will see the error of their ways, but not admit that Keynesian economics was a more of a mirage than reality. Dead broke is not a good thing.

??????????????????????????????? Tom Foley has ended his political career, defeated twice by Govenor Malloy.

From Charles Krauthammer in discussing the Obama drubbing.

The race I liked the most was the one in Maryland, where I live, where the Lt. Governor Anthony Brown was considered such a shoe-in, no one spoke about the Maryland race. No one. You didn’t hear a word, and the Republican, Larry Hogan, came out of nowhere. He won by 8 points. This tells you — the reason I like it, it shows the extent of this political event into the bluest of the blue, Maryland. It wasn’t a tea leaf election. It was a nuclear explosion.

CT GUN GRABBER McKINNEY SUFFERS FATAL BLOW – FOLEY-MALLOY REMATCH

Gun grabbing RINO John McKinney suffered a fatal blow in Connecticut’s Republican primary at the hands of Tom Foley; setting up a rematch with the gun grabbing Governor Malloy.

For those of you aren’t familiar with John McKinney, he believes that the state’s citizens should pay for the healthcare of illegal aliens. He believes that citizens don’t have a right to defend themselves, he believes that the average citizen is not fit to make decisions regarding their own future. Those are the reasons McKinney was soundly beaten.

The stage is set this time for the main event. The polls favor Foley who lost by a measly 6000 votes four years ago. Since then the Connecticut economy has turned into the nation’s laughing stock. The $1.5 billion in new taxes are hard to swallow by most of the state’s citizens, Democrats included; but the real bombshell will be felt in 2016 because of the pending $2 billion dollar deficit. If Malloy is reelected tax increase of monumental proportions are in the cards. Foley on the other hand is expected to ax many of the state’s excesses.

We can’t wait to turn Connecticut RED.
