Linda McMahon, former CEO of World Wrestling Entertainment, wins Senate Primary

"The support of the voters of Connecticut isn't bestowed by the establishment or the pundits or the media. It isn't a birthright," she told cheering supporters after her victory was sealed. "It can't be bought, it needs to be earned. And tonight I am humbled to have earned your support." --Linda McMahon

"It’s hard to imagine the hatred voters must harbor toward Washington to make McMahon a viable candidate. For the Republican Party, which stokes that hatred, no imagination is needed." --Margaret Carlson, a Bloomberg News opinion columnist
