WASHINGTON - Former World Wrestling Entertainment CEO Linda McMahon, the newly nominated Republican Senate candidate in Connecticut, says she's ready to spend what it takes to beat Democrat Richard Blumenthal.
SHELTON (GaeaTimes.com)- It seems that the GOP are trying to bank on some new faces in the world of politics this fall.
WEST HARTFORD, Conn. - Trying to defuse a crisis that could give the GOP a powerful opening, Democratic Senate candidate Richard Blumenthal said Tuesday that he "misspoke" in claiming more than once that he served in Vietnam, and he dismissed the furor as a matter of "a few misplaced words."
At a news conference where he surrounded himself with veterans, the Connecticut attorney general and far-and-away front-runner to replace retiring Democrat Christopher Dodd said he meant to say he served "during" Vietnam instead of "in" Vietnam.
