As reported by the Connecticut Mirror:
Statement from Penny Bacchiochi: “I regret that this misunderstanding occurred and has taken the focus away from what is really important, electing a Republican Governor and Lieutenant Governor. Neither Dave Walker nor his campaign made any insensitive remarks toward me or my family. I apologize to Dave and his family. Dave and I have met and agreed to put this matter behind us, and to focus on the critical work of the convention.”
Statement from Dave Walker: “I accept Penny’s apology and I believe she issued it with all sincerity. I look forward to a healthy debate on the issues and our qualifications moving forward.”

Upon hearing Bacchiochi’s outrageous accusation against Dave Walker, I put out a bounty on her head. Now that she has apologized and Dave Walker accepted, the bounty is off:

A McKinney-Walker ticket could make this an interesting race. Foley not so much. Good luck to all.
Condolences to Senator McKinney on the loss of his mother.
At the risk of sounding cliche: You can’t unring the bell, Penny. If you figure out how to do that, please let the rest of us know. I am not kidding, please! 😉
Let’s not forget about Karl Rove, known as “Bush’s Brain,” it was John McCain being “rumored” to have fathered a daughter with an African American prostitute or accusing Georgia Senator Max Cleland, a Vietnam and veteran and amputee, of being soft on terrorism, Karl Rove was a master at “smash-mouth” junkyard dog politics.
He still is.
