Wonky Wednesday: Politics Is Not a Spectator Sport

Woody Allen has been quoted as saying, “80 percent of success is showing up.” This is particularly true in politics, and thus I am presenting two opportunities in which you can make a difference by showing up.

Delaware for Obama is organizing in Delaware, and the folks involved have asked that we help pass the word on their next orgainzing meeting:

Delaware for Obama Immediate Action Meeting
Monday April 16th 7:30 PM – 9:00 PM
UUFN Fellowship Hall, 420 Willa Rd. in Newark

For info, call 456-1199

I discussed this request with my fellow editors/contributors here at Delawareliberal, and we agreed that any of the Democratic candidates for president or progressive Democratic committees or candidates for any office are welcome to post meeting notices here. An easy way to reach us is by leaving a comment on the “About” page.

The adage that success depends on showing up is never truer than on an election day, and by the way, we have one on Saturday. The special election for state representative in the 7th district is this Saturday. Bryon Short is the Democrat seeking to replace Wayne Smith. This is our chance to replace a deeply conservative Republican with a true blue Democrat.

You can sign up to help, if even for an hour or two, at the DelDems website. or by calling (302) 328-9036.
