(Written on the train into the city yesterday, but posted Saturday afternoon).

It is Friday morning and I am on the train into New York City. It is cool and cloudy today. I had been expecting nicer weather. Perhaps it will turn nice for Mother’s day.

On the train, I read the Stamford Advocate’s coverage of Mayor Malloy’s exoneration. I am pleased. Mayor Malloy has been a great mayor and would be a great governor. Some people have suggested that allegations from an unknown source were a political hatchet job. It sure looks that way to me.

Republican Town Committee Chairman Daniel McCabe is quoted as saying “I certainly wouldn’t consider it a badge of honor that something that intense and dramatic had to take place in the city of Stamford.” In a sense, he is right, and if he has an integrity, he would denounce the person who sent the chief state’s attorney’s office on a wild goose chase and would actively work to have that person exposed.
