Mirror: Clinton Next Up For Blumenthal
A day after President Obama campaigned for him, U.S. Senate candidate Richard Blumenthal already has lined up another presidential visit -- this time from Bill Clinton.
The former president is coming September 26. No other details are set yet, but the campaign is trying to arrange a fundraiser and a public event, possibly in New Haven, where they met as Yale law students.
The visit was announced today, a day after Obama hosted a fundraiser in Stamford and, coincidentally, the race slipped from leaning Democratic to a toss up in the estimation of the Cook Report.
"It's an honor to welcome former President Clinton to Connecticut," Blumenthal said. "He is a long-time friend and a true champion for middle-class families. His leadership helped create one of the most prosperous economic times in our nation's history."
