Rell & Gallo weigh-in

What was only blogosphere chatter last night, is "real news" today. Schlesinger is being pressured to drop out (Courant, by Mark Pazniokas). Governor Rell & GOP Chairman George Gallo are urging the Alan Schlesinger to "reconsider" his Senate candidacy. Schlesinger says he won't do it, but I have to wonder. I'm not sure who would run in his place. But I imagine that there are several Republicans who would consider running in a three way race.

1500 delegates at the state convention voted for Alan. It is not up to the party chairman to decide now that they have a better candidate because there is a more realistic chance of winning the seat. Alan was in on the beginning and the convention spoke. If Governor Rell and the chairman had a better candidate then it was up to them to convince that person to run before the convention. It is also not fair to the other candidate (Paul Steiz) who bowed out in a dignified manner at the convention.
