Susan Bysiewicz & Linda McMahon’s $$$
Dan and Susan Are the Tip of Linda McMahon’s Iceberg in State Politics
January 13, 2010Pro Wrestling Occupational Health and Safety Is Officially a U.S. Senate Race Issue
January 13, 2010Susan Bysiewicz, Connecticut’s secretary of state who was all set to run for governor, instead will be running for attorney general, as the game of musical chairs continues for some of the state’s best-known political figures.
Apropos the previous item on this blog, the Linda McMahon campaign website disclosed her history of political contributions in a September 16, 2009, blog post. See http://www.linda2010.com/blog_32.html.
[A month earlier my own blog had reproduced from the database of the Center for Responsive Politics the federal-only contributions of both Linda McMahon (http://wrestlingbabylon.wordpress.com/2009/08/22/senate-candidate-linda-mcmahons-ceo-of-wwe-campaign-contributions/) and her husband Vince (http://wrestlingbabylon.wordpress.com/2009/08/22/vince-mcmahons-campaign-contributions/).]
Linda donated a total of $3,250 to Bysiewicz over the years.
Yes, Bysiewicz is a Democrat, yadda yadda yadda.
But I’m more interested in linking this fact to Hartford Courant columnist Rick Green’s note on his blog yesterday that Bysiewicz last year endorsed Governor Jodi Rell’s nomination of McMahon to the state Board of Education.
As we all know, the legislature confirmed McMahon, but not before she ran a Version 2.0 of her resume through the old word processor. Version 1.0 had lied about her academic credentials.
Hey, we all need a little whiteout on our sensitive documents from time to time. Even ABC News.
