Chris Murphy fundrasing generates impressive numbers

Seems like we might have a contest for the 5th Congressional seat if Chris Murphy keeps up his fundraising pace.

The State Senator released his fundraising totals for the third quarter last week and it shows that he collected $254,165 in the last four months which is quite impressive seeing that the election is still a year away.

Nancy Johnson should be concerned as it seems like she will have a real fight on her hands. Her ties to Tom Delay and lobbyists is common knowledge and her free trip to Ecuador has generated some bad press. With the money Murphy is generating at this early point in the race, expect him to have the cash on hand to attack Johnson hard on the airwaves.
