Linda McMahon The Official Republican Candidate For Connecticut Senate Seat
The Connecticut Republican Primary has just concluded, and Linda McMahon is their candidate for the open seat from Connecticut in the US Senate. One of the two seats for Connecticut is being contested this fall. She’s the former CEO of WWE Entertainment and wife of Vince McMahon Jr. Senator Chris Dodd is retiring when his term runs out and Linda McMahon stepped down as CEO last year to run for the seat. Article resource – Linda McMahon gets the nod for Connecticut Senate race by Personal Money Store.
The GOP can smell what Linda McMahon is cooking
Part of Linda McMahon’s campaign is not taking any campaign contributions from public funds, Political Action Committees or special interests. She has, according to ABC, spent over $ 22 million from her own pocket and isn’t deterred by having to spend more up to November. Her opponent, Dick Blumenthal, has served in the Connecticut State House and State Senate, and has been the Attorney General for Connecticut since 1991.
What platforms is she running on?
Linda McMahon, if a label must be affixed, could possibly be effortlessly classified as a neo-conservative. She advocates for fiscally conservative policies, specific deregulation and creating jobs in the private sector are big topics for her. She has come out in support of Obama’s strategy in Afghanistan, but is notably hawkish on Iran. She isn’t afraid to break with Republican orthodoxy, as she has donated money to a pro-choice PAC though she has said she’s opposed to partial-birth abortions. In an interview with the Connecticut Mirror, she came out as being warmer to LGBT rights than even the President, calling for the end of Don’t Ask Don’t Tell, and for gay marriage to be an issue for the states.
So what’s the bottom line?
Well, it is one more rich and famous person running for office. Not that we have not seen that before, but she was the CEO of a company that became the only professional wrestling organization to be publicly traded and almost as popular as NASCAR. (The McMahons own a large majority of the shares.) She has some very popular platforms, and she may well prove to be exactly what voters are looking for. Now all that remains to be seen is what you’re going to do, brother, when Wrestle mania goes to DC?
