Former World Wrestling Entertainment chief executive—and wife of Vince—Linda McMahon won the Connecticut Republican Senate primary yesterday.

She said of the Republican Party, "Families don't always get along and don't always agree, but, in the end, they do stand together."

As Democrats slam her WWE connections, McMahon said she is willing to spend up to $50 million on the race.
