Wyman Returns to J to Eye the Dice.

You know Lieutenant Governor Nancy Wyman is about to make a big decision when she gathers her closest advisors at J Restaurant and Bar in Hartford. Wyman met with her tribe of veteran fans and hangers-on Wednesday night at the capital watering hole to discuss whether she’ll try to succeed Dannel P. Malloy where he has failed–as governor. Wyman adjourned to the bar after attending a National Guard deployment event at the state armory.

Democrats should get ready for a Wyman-sized big gulp. The Tolland Democrat who has spent the last 30 years in state office is said to be inclined to try to make the case that Connecticut wants four more years of Malloy-Wyman catastrophes.

Wyman would be a heavy favorite to win the Democratic endorsement at its spring convention. She’d face an August primary against any rival who could garner 15% of the delegates at the convention or collect signatures of 2% of registered Democrats. Republicans have been rooting for her to run for she is not the face of change in troubled Connecticut.
