CT Gov. Bops the Christie Plan

NYT: Malloy rules out “gouging” social safety net, takes stand against gutting public payrolls.

Malloy on Christie:

“I’m not sure that some governors just don’t want to lay off people for the sake of laying off people and being able to say they did.”

“I think there’s a certain collection of merit badges that’s going on here.”

“He has become the darling of Republicans because he’s perceived as taking Democrats on rudely.”
