Democrat Betsy Markeys ad.

Democrat Betsy Markey claims in her first campaign ad that Republican state Treasurer Walker Stapleton is AWOL an awful lot a charge his campaign dismisses as silly.

At best, its inexcusable. At worst, its a scandal, the spot says. According to official key card records, Stapleton only bothers showing up at his office around 10 days a month.

Stapletons campaign spokesman, Michael Fortney, said when the treasurer forgets his key card, which is often, he goes through the public entrance where attendance records are not kept.

This is silly. Betsy knows there is more than one way to get into the Capitol. The fact is she has zero understanding of the treasurers office and public finance so she has to rely on this garbage, Fortney said.

The ad concludes by saying for a serious state treasurer, who built one of Americas 500 fastest-growing companies, businesswoman Betsy Markey.

Actually, most folks identify Markey as a former congresswoman who took out ultra conservative Marilyn Musgrave in 2008, despite Congressional District 4 being incredibly favorable to Republicans. Markey was defeated by state Rep. Cory Gardner in the 2010 GOP wave; he now is running for the U.S. Senate. Stapleton that same year defeated the incumbent state treasurer, Democrat Cary Kennedy. He now is running for re-election.

Heres the script for the ad:

At best, its inexcusable. At worst, its a scandal.

State Treasurer Walker Stapleton.

President Obama needs to sweep through his inner ranks and weed out those who arent doing him any political good those who are simply telling him what he wants to hear, rather than what he needs to hear, a key Democratic strategist said.

Only the strategist unnamed in The Hill article used more colorful language: Mr. Obama should take a flamethrower to his office, the Democrat said.

He needs dramatic change its not even a debatable point, the strategist went on, The Hill reported. The general consensus is that the president is surrounded by people who do him more harm than good because they are more focused on pleasing him than they are challenging him or proposing a different course.

The Hill reported other Democrats are saying similarly, due in large part to the presidents failure to pass much of his agenda since his re-election. Meanwhile, most Democrats seeking political re-election have seemed to distance themselves from Mr. Obama, preferring he stay far from their campaign trails.

When he lost [David] Plouffe, when [David] Axelrod left, there arent too many people who can walk into the Oval Office and shut the door, said Democratic strategist Peter Finn, The Hill reported. And those guys could they could speak really frankly to him. How does he put people in the White House with serious political chops?

Meanwhile, Jim Manley, a former aide to Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, said the White House was going to have to face a quick overhaul soon, and its probably something theyre going to have to consider for a lot of different reasons, The Hill reported.

HARTFORD - The last time a non-Democrat held the office of attorney general in Connecticut was 1959. The current Democratic occupant, George Jepsen, was all of five years old back then.

In this election, Jepsen is being challenged by opponents who occupy opposite ends of the political spectrum and have very different approaches to the campaign.

Republican Kie Westby is a conservative lawyer from Thomaston who believes Connecticut must drop its "anti-business attitude" that he claims has driven companies out of the state and hurt job growth. He's also an NRA member opposed to new state gun controls passed after the Sandy Hook killings, and a harsh critic of "Common Core" educational standards.

Green Party candidate Stephen Fournier is proudly "to the left of the other two" in the race. He considers the federal government an "enemy of the state of Connecticut," and wants to investigate its role in the 9/11 disaster. Fournier thinks many voters out there are as angry as he is with big government and big business.

Jepsen's challengers are leaving the incumbent a lot of room in the political middle. Like his predecessors in the attorney general's office, Jepsen casts himself as a champion of consumers and a defender of personal privacy.

Tried-and-true formula

It's a tried-and-true formula, and a recent opinion survey by Public Policy Polling indicates it may well be working again: the poll gave Jepsen a 15-point edge over Westby and a 36-point advantage over Fournier.

Both Jepsen and Westby are planning on using the state's public campaign finance system, which would give each more than $812,000 in taxpayer money to spend on this election. Fournier isn't seeking any public election funding, and expects to spend less than $1,000 on his third-party candidacy.

Jepsen last week put up his first TV campaign ad of the race. Westby, who only recently made his formal application for public financing, is hoping for a quick approval so he can respond with his own TV commercials.

In 2010, Jepsen won his first attorney general contest with 53.7 percent of the vote. Republican Martha Dean another GOP conservative pulled 43.6 percent, while Fournier got 2.9 percent of the ballots cast.
