The economist and TV commentator Peter Schiff is considering
getting into the Republican primary fight to challenge Sen. Chris
Dodd (D-CT). They've conducted a
poll that shows Schiff is competitive with Dodd, though not
presently as strong as former Congressman Rob Simmons. I discuss
a similar dynamic between Simmons and state Sen. Sam Caliguiri in
the July/August issue of The American Spectator. I'll
have more to say about Schiff's potential candidacy later.
