US Congress Candidate Sam Caliguiri
U. S. Senate candidate Linda McMahon was unable to attend the RTC dinner Thursday night, but thanks to Mayor Stewart, she was able to address the crowd over his cell phone and loud speaker. Her comments were well received by the crowd in attendance. Mayor Mark Boughton Lt. Gov. candidate, Mayor Jeff Wright State Treasurer candidate, Henry Zemko State Senate 6th District candidate, Cris Carillo 24th. District candidate, Helen Bergenty 22nd District candidate, and James Griffin 26th District candidate were all in attendance and made their comments to the crowd.
The most impressive comments were made by Sam Caliguiri, candidate for the US Congress against Representative Chris Murphy in the 5th Congressional District. He criticized Dan Molloy, Dick Blumenthal, and Chris Murphy, because of their shared opinion that the Obamacare plan didn't go far enough and blasted Chris Murphy, Pelosi, and Reid for passing this awful plan. He also discussed the disastrous financial condition our state is in, mentioning that the State Treasurer borrowed nearly half of a million dollars to meet the state expenses because there is no end to the spending in Hartford. Caliguiri said "Get me elected and I will say "no" to the outrageous spending proposals that never seem to end in Congress." Caliguiri's comments were met by cheers from the crowd.
Frank I think Sam said the State Treasurer borrowed half a billion dollars. Ya. It's a lot of real money!
ReplyDeleteAll Sam had to do to earn my vote was promise to repeal Obamacare!
ReplyDeleteThat's the trouble with the way Democrats have been throwing our money around like confetti. Trillions, billions, and millions seem like loose change.
ReplyDeleteLooks like a big crowd showed up for Sam
ReplyDeleteThere was a big crowd, but I think they showed up for more then just Sam. I wish the article was longer. There had to be more that happened.
ReplyDeleteZembko for State Senate 2010 !!!!
ReplyDeleteLets Restore America back to "We The People " !!!
I hope you all noticed that the New Britain Herald never even reported on such a big event right here in town, even after writing a huge page two story commending O'Brien as if he was some sort of hero just for showing up for work. I guess the Herald editorial staff expects elected officials to not do their job, so even if someone votes against the will of the people almost always, they feel that person deserves to be commended just because he bothered to show up.
ReplyDeleteI wonder who the left wing radical running the Herald might be supporting?

The Herald undoubtedly is a Democrat controlled newspaper...They rarely publish news items submitted by or related to the Republicans.
The Elks Club hall was full to capacity with supporters and candidates, who mingled well...a friendly congenial crowd. Hats off to the committee who put the function together!
