Dick Blumenthal-The PACman

What really irks me about PAC's isn't the fact that they exist but that so many of them come from out of State. Why should a PAC like Green Mountain be able to support a candidate from Connecticut? I think PAC's and the rules surrounding them should be revised so that out of State contributors are barred from contributing. Yes, the office in contest is a federal office, but out of State voters can't vote in the Connecticut Senate race, why should PAC dollars be able to have the potential to shift the balance of the race? Linda McMahon, being as well financed as she is, doesn't need to rely on special interests, lobbyists and PAC money. Richard Blumenthal seems to be the new PAC man, gobbling up all the dollars he can to compete financially with Ms. McMahon. That's about as unrealistic as professional wrestling. The best offense for Richard Blumenthal's camp seems to be no defense and only one line of offense. They obviously have nothing else to attack Linda McMahon on other than her past association with the wrestling industry. Linda McMahon has done a wonderful job explaining her position, accepting her shortcomings and moving on to the real issues that CT voters should care about. Why isn't she afforded the same respect as Richard Blumenthal? The mainstream media has it in the bag for Richard Blumenthal, and we all know what happens when media outlets anoint somebody. The last thing this country needs is for Richard Blumenthal's lips to get any closer to Barack Obama's backside.
