Republican candidate for Attorney General, Martha Dean, sounds kind of like a nutcake. At least, I always thought that parents who went crazy over child custody matters were entirely self- centered and indifferent, despite their protests to the contrary, to the best interest of their child. I don’t know much about her Demmerkrat opponent, George Jepsen but I think I’ll dig around and see if I can support him.
I met him yesterday at ShopRite and, sure that I remembered him, asked whether we’d attended UConn Law together. His negative reply was quite frosty (turns out he went to Haaarvard), but in fact, I do believe we were both GHS grads of 1971. We attended school together somewhere, to the best of my memory and he might be worth voting for – a union-friendly Dem might still make a better Attorney General than a whacked out ex-wife. Maybe. What a choice.
UPDATE: Jepsen was born a year after me – 1954 , I’m 1953 – so we were not classmates. But I find it curious that his official biography makes no mention of where he attended high school. If it was, as I believe, Greenwich, is he embarrassed to admit it?
