Unlike Wisconsin or Ohio, Connecticut is a Democratic-tilting state and Gov. Malloy enjoys considerable margins in both the state House and state Senate. As a result, the budget battle in Connecticut is far less likely to devolve into a purely partisan squabble.

How Gov. Malloy succeeds (or fails) will provide a telling example for governors across the nation about how to navigate the politics of unpopularity amid tough choices on their state budgets.; March 9, 2011 at 2:23 PM

Anonymous said...: Connecticut's governor, Dannel Malloy, gets no honeymoon as voters disapprove 40 - 35 percent of the job he is doing, with 25 percent undecided, according to a Quinnipiac University poll released today.

Voters are optimistic, 55 - 39 percent, about the next four years under Gov. Malloy, the independent Quinnipiac University poll finds. And they say 89 - 7 percent that Malloy's town hall meetings to discuss the budget and the economy is a good idea.; March 9, 2011 at 2:31 PM
