Not that much where I am looking.  A lot of these people think it is still 2005. 

I went in to one place yesterday and it was like stepping into 1978.  Wood paneling, cheesy wrought iron, etc. 

Plus it smelled like wet dog.

749k.  I told them I woould pay 500k since I had to change the windows, the floors, the dry wall, etc to get rid of the dog smell and everything else.  North stamford has tons of land, is right off the merrit, has a metro north station to NYC, and the taxes ar about 50% of what they would be in Westchester. 

They asked me to leave and not insult them.  I told them to call me 6 months from now when no one wants to buy it.

Connecticut: Blumenthal campaign worried their voters are not turning out
Wireupdate ^ | November 2, 2010 | By Joe Brooks


Low supporter turnout for Richard Blumenthal has forced the campaign to send out an alert Tuesday afternoon urging supporters to get out to the polls.

“Voter turnout appears to be heavy in areas that benefit our opponent,” The campaign email read".” It is critical that we maximize our efforts to get our supporters to the polls. We need your help”

Blumenthal is running against Linda McMahon in a highly publicized campaign for US Senate in Connecticut. The Real Clear Politics average of all national pulling has Blumenthal leading McMahon by 9 points, however that lead has been shrinking in recent weeks.

Polls close in Connecticut at 8PM ET.

I lived in Norwalk CT for 42 years.The prices in CT for everything drove us to Indiana.We bought a house in Indiana for 240,000 that would have cost 1 million in Norwalk.

blum sucks, in a major way.   That liar should have lost by a ton.

yet the repubs let a rich person buy the nomination.  Someone without the ability to win.  Just another Fiorinia or Whitman.  They let far better candidates fall to the wayside cause $ talks.

You really don't understand a single thing about Connecticut politics yet you continually regurgitate that same line. Give it a rest.

[Soul Crusher]

240 latches on to something he thinks sounds good and repeats it endlessly.  McMahon was a great candidate. 

[240 is Back]

I understand they're a lib state - but the fact McMahon was tied with him in polls tells me there's a damn good chance a repub could beat a lying bum like Blum.

She was just a weak candidate.  but that's okay - cause now that the tea party movement is accepted, stronger candidates will move into that category for 2012.  You won't see an Angle or a ODonnell reach the nomination - people who can actually WIN over a far-left dem in a leftish state will run.  Coons should have lost.  Reid should have lost.  By miles.

why is that

[Soul Crusher]

why is that

Self made business person with international business epxerience who knows about economics, business, jobs, and what it will take to get the economy in order.  Blumenthal is just a lying hack who will rubber stamp obama;s worst excesses.

I think it was impressive enough that she managed to pull even with him. Schiff may or may not have beaten him but his campaign strategy was horrible and he played himself right out of contention.

The media here did a great job silencing any talk about Blumenthal's lies. He's a horrible candidate but the majority of people here vote on party lines regardless of candidates so whatever.

Most people in the state don't even like Blumenthal but they'll be damned if they vote against the democrats. CT has long been one of their strongholds.

Looks like Himes may be going down, though. L-O-L!

BF, I wouldn't be so sure about that, some of the races I voted for republicans

[240 is Back]

how can she pull even - and not win - and still do a good job?

I don't follow.  She lost momentum against a guy who lied about one of those things you just can't lie about and recover.  MSN spent 3 months trashing Blum - Chris mathews did it on a daily basis!!!

So you're saying she's a good candidate - who squanders a lead against a liar even MSNBC bashes?  I don't follow...

It's Connecticut. No one cares about Blumenthal's lies. Believe me. I asked my parents about it and they couldn't have cared less. Same goes for the rest of the sheeple who vote along party lines in this state.

McMahon was never going to win. Or any Repub candidate. The question was how badly would they lose.

Angle is still in her race. While I wish O'Donnell could have pulled it off, I'm glad she made it this far. It's numbskulls like Mike Castle that need to go. I just hope Murkowski gets crushed, just like Crist in Florida.
