The McMahon campaign is poised to launch a targeted initiative to reach a key demographic: Women for Linda aims "to make sure our next U.S. Senator will stand up for Connecticut families,'' trumpets the campaign's website.
Watch for WFL t-shirt and bumper stickers; will they all come in the same lovely shade of orchid that dominates the website?
"Women for Linda includes women of all ages who believe Washington needs more female lawmakers. In 234 years, Connecticut has never been represented by a woman in the U.S. Senate,'' the group states. "As a mother and a grandmother, Linda understands the challenges women face, and she knows that right now, women across Connecticut and our country are struggling to keep up with the bills and put food on the table. But just as families are cutting back, we see government racking up debt that will fall on the backs of our children and grandchildren.''
