#9 Dumbest Thing Done by Connecticut Democrats in 2007

# 9 - Chris Caruso Can't Let it Go.

There have been great rumblings from Chris Caruso this year, though that might have something to do with all the sausage he eats.

In September, the insufferably pompous Caruso, a Bridgeport State Representative and Chairman of the GAE Committee, lost the Democratic primary for Mayor of Bridgeport to State Senator Bill Finch. From that moment until this he has worked to sue his way into office.

He filed a lawsuit claiming voter irregularities robbed him of primary victory. Then, when Finch went on to win the general election, Caruso sued to prevent the election from being certified. Caruso's attempt to stop Finch from taking office was thrown out, and his suit over the general election is still pending.

Caruso is following a new creed that liberals began establishing this decade with the likes of Al Gore... if you lose an election, just try to sue people and places and things until you are handed the office.

Caruso, who approaches 50 years of age and still lives at home with his mommy has never really had much of a real job, and thusly, hasn't much of a sense of reality. His inability to lose with any grace whatsoever leads me to select Caruso's inability to let it go as the #9 Dumbest Thing Done by Connecticut Democrats in 2007.
