Another Sunny Saturday
Just some things…
The Greater Manchester Young Democrats have two cell phone pics of Mike Lawlor (now affectionately known as Sparky) being tasered. Before the security camera footage was shared, it looked like these pics were going to be it. Also, I just added them to the blogroll, so pay ‘em a visit.
CT Bob posts a video excerpt from our blockbuster interview with Ned Lamont:
Since that time, another Democrat named Jim Shapiro has stepped forward, showing an interest in challenging Chris Shays in ‘08. I met Shapiro this week in Hartford, and his eagerness to engage the local blogosphere impressed me. As a resident of the fightin’ fifth, I don’t know how much I’ll be writing about the race in the 4th CD, but the amazing Maura has provided a handy round-up of People-Powered Media reports on the potential Democratic challengers:

and, of course, a collection of great diaries on Chris Shays here at MLN.
