The question the media should ask Boughton is quite simple AND should be the first thing out of the mouths of reporters tonight.
If you stated in the media IN JANUARY that you've made a decision regarding whether you were running for governor, why did you wait a month to tell the public and make such a hissy fit when the purchase of your web domain and gubernatorial website became public?
Plain and simple.
The whole denial from Boughton regarding his obvious running for governor was juvenile and completely unnecessary.
If his campaign for governor is anything like his public denials over the last two weeks, then I can tell you that Boughton is going to have an extremely hard time dealing with the statewide reporters who aren't known for holding back when it comes to hard questions.
...and trust me, he will receive some very hard questions regarding his role as mayor of Danbury.

On September 26, 2007, ten plaintiffs filed suit in response to an arrest of aday laborers at a public park in Danbury, Connecticut. Plaintiffs amended their complaint on November 26, 2007.
The amended complaint states that plaintiffs sought to remedy the continued discriminatory and unauthorized enforcement of federal immigration laws against the Latino residents of the City of Danbury by Danbury's mayor and its police department.
Plaintiffs allege that the arrests violated their Fourth Amendment rights and the Connecticut Constitution because defendants conducted the arrests without valid warrants, in the absence of exigent circumstances, and without probable cause to believe that plaintiffs were engaged in unlawful activity. In addition, plaintiffs allege that defendants improperly stopped, detained, investigated, searched and arrested plaintiffs. Plaintiffs also allege that defendants violated their Fourteenth Amendment rights when they intentionally targeted plaintiffs, and arrested and detained them on the basis of their race, ethnicity and perceived national origin. Plaintiffs raise First Amendment, Due Process and tort claims.
Plaintiffs request declaratory relief, damages and attorneys fees.
