Lamont and Glassman to Run Together.

Democratic candidate for governor is expected to announce Monday has chosen Simsbury first selectman Mary Glassman to run for lieutenant governor with him.  Glassman, who suffered a landslide that defeat for that office in 2006’s fall election, will abandon her stalled campaign for governor.  Glassman, whose support for former Governor John Rowland caused her some uncomfortable moments in the 2006 campaign, will need to bring some delegates to the Lamont campaign if she’s to have any immediate value.

A ticket of two defeated statewide candidates from the 2006 campaign won’t provide the “fresher” choices Glassman said last year Connecticut voters were seeking.  Glassman’s platitude-laden campaign for governor offered few specifics other than the state needs a leader who leads because that’s what a leader does, lead.

The Greenwich millionaire’s Monday “major campaign announcement” will take place at 10:15 a.m. in New Britain, where the BMW SUV-driving Glassman grew up.
