Well for the amount of money she spent on the campaign, its a good thing she won or else this would have been Vince's worst investment since the XFL.

Here is the press release from Yahoo.

Ex-WWE Exec Wins GOP Primary For Conn. Senate Seat

HARTFORD, Conn. – Former wrestling executive Linda McMahon has fended off a late challenge from former Congressman Rob Simmons to win the Republican endorsement for Connecticut's U.S. Senate seat.

McMahon on Tuesday defeated both Simmons and Weston financial expert Peter Schiff in the GOP primary.

Simmons had led the race back when U.S. Sen. Chris Dodd was still planning to seek re-election. He suspended his campaign in May after losing the party's endorsement to McMahon, then restarted his efforts in recent weeks with TV ads reminding voters his name was still on the ballot.

But McMahon, who spent more than $20 million of her own money on the primary race, largely ignored his re-entry. She now faces Democratic Attorney General Richard Blumenthal in November.

If I remember correctly, isn't Simmons the guy that was in hot water for claiming he was over in Vietnam during the war......but oops!....he was NEVER in Vietnam. He later claimed that he had been misquoted. If I remember....he's NOT old enough to have been in the Vietnam War. That was about the time the party decided to back McMahon.

Way to go Linda!

....and I just checked the New York Stock Exchange......WWE Stock dropped 2.6% today.....
