Connecticut Post Says Fedele The Choice Among Republicans
Lt. Gov. Michael Fedele has the combination of government and business experience that, given the chance to serve in the No. 1 seat, would be good for the state of Connecticut.
The Connecticut Post endorses his candidacy in the Aug. 10 Republican three-way primary.
The 55-yearold Fedele brings 10 years of legislative experience, serving in the state House of Representatives from 1992 to 2002, and three years in his current position.
But Fedele is also a self-made businessman and understands that job creation is the top challenge to the state.
Fedele understands in no uncertain terms that improving the atmosphere in Connecticut for small business is essential to turning around the state's economy.
His stand against any new taxes speaks to his understanding of the situation.
We compliment him for his position.
Given his experience, Fedele is confident solutions to the state's problems of spending and borrowing can be resolved through good management, and not through new taxes.Though Fedele has been part of the Rell administration ... well, that in some respects sums it up.
It was indeed the Rell administration, and if anyone can name a Connecticut lieutenant governor who shaped policy from that office, we'd be curious to know who it was.
Fedele rightly says he can be held accountable only for those areas in which he had authority.
He's been an effective ambassador for the state, recruiting business and reaching out to the Henkel Corporation, manufacturer of Loctite adhesive products and successfully encouraging them to consolidate operations in Rocky Hill.
Fedele also figured in the move of Columbia Elevators from New York to Bridgeport.
We also applaud Oz Griebel, another candidate in the GOP primary, for his passion and clear commitment to improving the business climate in the state.
And Tom Foley brings a business background as well. But he also brings some unpleasant baggage to the race.
But Fedele earns our endorsement. We believe he's the best of the three choices to lead the state.
