He's RINO RIck's favorite gubernatorial candidate, a businessman unafraid to at least broach the idea of reinstating highway tolls.
But Oz Griebel recently picked up an unlikely endorsement. Free Norwich, a Tea Party-affiliated group whose website proudly states it is "Eastern Connecticut's Right Wing Extremist HQ," is backing Griebel.
This is no mealy-mouthed, on-the-one-hand, on-the-other-hand endorsement. Griebel, the group states, exudes "confidence and swagger.'' He has that "tireless 'it factor' far too infrequently seen today-energy that is the hallmark of leadership.''
As for the other guys, Mike Fedele and Tom Foley, they've "demonstrated that they would rather engage in a personal vendetta that more resembles a sand box squabble than the type of leadership we desperately need now. Tom Foley and Michael Fedele have let their cat fight usurp their energies from the task at hand. Foley looks tired as the primary approaches. Fedele acts like a scorned lover in his attacks on Foley."
