Last night we attended a fundraiser for the House Democrats at the Thames Club, in downtown New London. Denise Merrill, House Majority Leader, spoke to the assembled multitude. She is among those trying to take advantage of the falling dominoes, what with Richard Blumenthal heading to the Senate. She is going to run for Secretary of State.
Truth be told, if the actual members of the House had been subtracted from the attendees, the place would have been somewhat empty. From left to right: Betsy Ritter, Elissa Wright, Diana Urban, Tom Reynolds, Denise Merrill, Ken Ryan, Melissa Olson, and Ed Jutila.
Our Drinking Liberally Group was well represented. I did not take this picture, but am glad to report that the person who did managed to keep me well hidden.
