Herbst, shucking hecklers, pledges no new taxes

HARTFORD — A pair of twenty-something hecklers tried to disrupt a Tim Herbst news conference on the steps of the State Capitol Monday morning. While Herbst unveiled his opposition to new taxes, the duo of casually dressed activists stood behind him, holding signs critical of Herbst’s participation in the state’s public-financing program. They declined to identify themselves - or who they were working for. But their appearance would benefit the two self-funding Republican candidates for governor: David Stemerman of Greenwich; and Bob Stafanowski, of Madison, a businessman who has been particularly critical of Herbst’s participation in the Citizens’ Election Program.
