Don Pesci over at Connecticut Commentary weighed in on the emerging Sen. Tom Gaffey scandal, commenting thus: “Not for nothing did the ancient Greeks portray the confusion Eros sows in men’s minds by the wild goatskin clad Pan, god of the grape.

Danbury Politics is reporting on a News-Times story about former State Rep. Tony Nania who may be interested in a primary challenge to Danbury State Senator David Cappiello, for the right to take on one term Congressman Chris Murphy in the 5th Congressional District.  Chairman Healy is quoted in the story, saying: “Cappiello has done an outstanding job as frontrunner and is a very strong candidate,” said Chris Healy, chairman of the state Republican Party. “Nania certainly has the qualifications for the job, but he has a lot of catching up to do.”

Eye on Greenwich has favorable reviews from Mayor Giuliani’s tough “Meet the Press” interview on NBC yesterday.
