I mentioned this some time ago, but it’s been a while so I’ll repeat myself. The Groton Democratic Town Committee is holding a fundraiser on Saturday, at which Chris Dodd will be the featured speaker. The event will be held at the Mystic Marriot on Route 117 in Groton (Groton gets no respect. Let me emphasize that the Mystic Marriot is not in Mystic). For the princely sum of $20.00 you can see Chris Dodd, Susan Bysiewicz, Dick Blumenthal and Nancy Wyman. Joe Courtney may be there, his schedule permitting, and there are even rumors (unconfirmed at this point) that a certain former candidate for the U.S. Senate may be in attendance. No promises on that last one.
If you’re from the Groton area, come on down. If you’re not from the area, but you’ve always wanted to see Groton, here’s your chance. Make a day of it. Check out the Monument; gawk at the Nautilus, whatever. If you want, you can go to Mystic and join the rest of the tourists. Just make sure to pay your $20.00 at the door.
This, by the way, may be our year in the local elections. Tonight we nominated a full slate of candidates. Two years ago we nominated only four candidates to the nine member town council. All four won, but we remained in the minority. This year we have nine candidates, including four incumbents. All we need to do is add one, and we take over the town. Then we will wield the infinite power that comes with total political domination in Groton. You can help foment this political revolution by attending the fundraiser and paying your twenty bucks.
