Ted Mann's 20-part series on Gov. Dannel Malloy wraps up today, and there were, perhaps not surprisingly, some interesting revelations throughout the series. There were the rivalries and not-so-cordial relationships with governors in neighboring states, the fact that a fellow Democrat, Chris Donovan, was an obstacle to Malloy's first budget and how a key Malloy aide made a state representative cry over education.

Mann, working for the Connecticut Post, got a full year inside the governor's inner circle — what amounts to unprecedented access. The result was a near-complete picture of Malloy.

What we see is a governor clearly dedicated to his family and his job, a man that has faults, and admits them, and tries to surround himself with the smartest people he can. We also see that the governor is not afraid of a fight, even if it means not aligning himself with his own political party.
