John Breunig (opinion): Connecticut's new top Republican Rob Sampson says 'no' to everything

Connecticut columnist John Breunig argues that state Sen. Rob Sampson’s selection as Senate minority leader puts a hard-line Republican at the top of a party with only three seats in the state Senate. He says the imbalance with Democrats, who hold 33 seats, makes it difficult for Republicans to cover the legislature’s 28 committees and raises concerns about the state’s political balance.
