John DeStefano and Dan Malloy United

Unlike Chuck Schumer -- whose job it is to elect Democrats to the Senate -- both Connecticut Democratic Gubernatorial candidates have promised to support the winner of the August 8th Senate Primary.

Via CTblogger, John DeStefano promised the New Haven Independent two months ago, saying, "I will be supporting the Democrat in the November election."

Also via CTblogger (who is working with the unofficial Lamont Blog to whip the issue), there is news that Dan Malloy agrees. In the comments of a diary the candidate posted on My Left Nutmeg, Malloy says it is a "fair question" and then states, " Yes, I will support the winner of Senate primary, period."

I'm sure this will continue until we know which Democrats support democracy.
