I'm pleased that our esteemed teacher wrote about the Murphy/McMahon Senate race and made some recommendations to "my" candidate. I hope Chris and his team will take the recommendations to heart.
I especially like the suggestion that Murphy should begin to hammer home the information that Linda McMahon is a Republican. Now, this may seem to be information that all voters already have. But maybe it's not. I have noticed, in recent years, that very few candidates mention their party affiliation on television ads. On most lawn signs, if the party appears at all, it is in tiny letters at the bottom. I have, in my garage or on my lawn, 7 lawn signs for various candidates. The word "Democrat" is prominent on three of them, present in tiny letters on two, and absent from the remaining two. In my car travel around Connecticut and, this weekend in New Hampshire, I observed very few signs on which the party of the candidate was evident.
So, yeah, making it clear to our "Blue state" voters that Linda McMahon is a Republican might be all the Murphy team needs to push him over the top.
