Two N.J. Casinos Sued Schlesinger Over Debts (GOP candidate)
When Alan Schlesinger gave a fake name while playing blackjack at Foxwoods in the early 1990s, he had already been sued over a gambling debt by one Atlantic City casino and was on the way to racking up an even bigger debt that led to a second lawsuit.

Schlesinger, the Republican nominee for U.S. Senate in the Nov. 7 election, paid a total of more than $28,000 in 1990 and 1994 to settle the two lawsuits, according to New Jersey court records reviewed by The Courant.

2. This is part of the reason why the winner of the Democratic primary in CT
Will win the election. If Lieberman does not subvert the will of the Democratic voters of his state and run as an independent.

3. this guy is a piece of work, ain't he?
he swore up and down he only used a fake name because he wanted to avoid publicity.

but true to GOPrano form, he was lying to cover up his crimes.

5. Uh-oh.
If this is being leaked out, it's just a prelude to Schlesinger dropping out of the race "for his family's sake," then the GOP will turn around and name Joementum as their replacement candidate.

Just you wait.
