Will Democrats Malloy, Wyman and the CT Dem Party disavow Ed Marcus’ disgusting attack on Sanders and all Democrats?
Former Connecticut Democratic State Chairman Ed Marcus is, among other things, a thug.
After serving for ten years in the Connecticut General Assembly, six of which I also worked as the Connecticut Democratic Party’s Political Director, I left Connecticut politics in 1993.
At the time, I ended my career in elective office and Democratic politics a number of reasons, the primarily one being that I wanted to be an active, engaged and hands-on father for my newborn daughter and my second daughter yet to come.
However, in addition, I left because the Democratic State Central Committee selected Ed Marcus to be the Party’s Chairman. Marcus ran on a platform claiming that he would fire me his first day in office due to my legislative work on behalf of a fairer and more progressive state tax structure that included a new state income tax. He also condemned by “liberal” politics. It was with a sense of honor that I cleaned out my office and left Democratic Headquarters the day Marcus became its leader.
Today, just like back then, Ed Marcus was utterly unable to recognize that the underlying principle of being a Democrat begins with the concept that a Democrat believes in democracy (a word that beings with a lower-case d).
Now, in a truly unbelievable and disturbing commentary piece in the CT Mirror entitled,Letting Sanders run as a Democrat was a big mistake by the DNC, the former head of the Connecticut Democratic Party proclaims that Bernie Sanders is not “Democrat” enough to run for President as a “Democrat.”
For those of us who were brought up and believe in the principles that motivated millions of Democrats to support and vote for elected officials who would make our towns, states, Will Democrats Malloy, Wyman and the CT Dem Party disavow Ed Marcus’ disgusting attack on Sanders and all Democrats? - Wait What?:
