Governor Lamont?

Formerly of the Courant, but now the NYTimes is lucky to include his byline...

From Mark Pazniokas:

THREE years after an unlikely quest for the United States Senate established Ned Lamont as a national Democratic figure, he said he is weighing another electoral adventure: a challenge to Gov. M. Jodi Rell, one Republican whose political fortunes have not fallen with the Dow.

Interesting. Though if you read the article, he seems to be taking something of a centrist or populist approach... challenging both labor and the Democratic legislature.
