Perhaps inspired by the tour legislative Democrats made of the state earlier this summer to decry Republican Gov. M. Jodi Rell’s proposed budget cuts, legislative Republicans are hitting the road tomorrow to shine a spotlight on the majority party’s proposed tax increases.

They will appear locally at Avant Business Services in Stamford at 10:30 a.m. then at Alloy Manufacturing Company in Bridgeport at 12:30 p.m.

I like the idea of Sen. Minority Leader John McKinney, R-Fairfield and House Minority Leader Lawrence Cafero, R-Norwalk traveling the state together. It’s kind of like “Planes, Trains and Automobiles” with McKinney as Steve Martin and Cafero as John Candy.

And if that image doesn’t bring a smile to your face then I give up.
