Can You Believe It?

It seems Connecticut mobsters have actually lowered themselves to working with Republicans:

A legislative leader was arrested Friday on charges that he tried to have a businessman at the center of a federal racketeering probe arrange to threaten someone the senator believed was abusing a relative.

DeLuca, a Republican from Woodbury, was booked on a misdemeanor charge Friday of second-degree conspiracy to commit threatening. He was scheduled to be arraigned Monday in Waterbury Superior Court.

Poor mafia. What are things coming to when you have to sink that low?
