Where We Vote: Blumenthal And McMahon Roundtable Wrap-Up

Last night, Richard Blumenthal and Linda McMahon faced off in their first TV debate in their Senate race.  So, any knockout punches?  Any game-changers?

It’s hard to talk about this stuff without sports clichés.  Because, in essence – big debates are like sporting events.  Unlike an NFL Sunday, though, where there’s a clear winner and loser – and unlike a WWE wrestling match, where the outcome is pre-determined – a debate can be tricky to analyze.  Think of it more like a soccer game – fought to a nil/nil tie.

Both candidates had a chance to take shots at one another, over job creation, personal fortune and federal bailouts.  And both had a chance to evade questions from the panelists on the Fox Connecticut/Hartford Courant debate team. 

Today on Where We Live, a wrap up of the first debate.  Colin McEnroe was there, and gives us his analysis, and we’ll also be joined by Democratic analyst Bill Curry, and Republican Heath Fahle.
