Comment Rescue: What now?
As Dan B hints in the comments progressive and liberal Democrats must make a choice. We can sulk like a bunch of Naderite weenies and take our ball and go home, or we can roll up our sleeves and get to work removing these Democrats who have brought nothing but shame to our great Democratic Party and ignominy to our nation.
Who’s gonna be Joe W. (the W stands for wimp)Biden’s primary opponent in 2008? The time for purging the soulless hacks masquerading as Delaware Democrats is long overdue.
The devolution of Joe W. Biden (the W stands for weak) from an eloquent advocate for Progressive values to a bloviating, out of touch piece of K Street bilge, has been really painful to witness. Joe W.(the W stands for wordy) Biden has become living, breathing justification for term limits.
The DLC-Lieberman-Dick Morris mold the Delaware Democratic party has been using needs to be destroyed once and for all.
There are some legitimate Democrats in this state. People like Karen Peterson and Matt Denn, to name two, not only court Progressive votes, but actually use Progressive values to inform their job performance. I hope we can find someone cut from their cloth willing to challenge Joe W.(the W stands for waffling)Biden.
I’ve was disappointed in Joe W. (the W stands for weasel) Biden when he sold out the non-wealthy with the Bankruptcy Bill. That sense of disappointment increased dramatically with his cowardly endorsement of Bush’s war in 2002.
Despite these disappointments, I reluctantly cast my vote for Joe W. (the W stands for Dubya) Biden in 2002. It was the pragmatic thing to do, I suppose.
The only problem is our collective pragmatism has allowed the Democratic party to be overrun with worthless ciphers, who bring nothing to the table, save their own personal ambition.
Despite controlling both houses of Congress, the Democratic leadership is incapable of standing up to a man with roughly the same level of appeal as voluntary castration.
With this final display of cowardice, it’s time for Delaware Democrats to definitively turn their back on Joe W. (the W stands for WRONG) Biden.
DLC taints most of our DEMs ~ a contagon passed from Carper and Biden to the state and county executives and staffers.
Denn is a Carper-Minner staffer.
Denn was recgonized by the DLC as an “person of intertest” I’m not sure that he recognized them back.
His “real Dem” cred is pretty high for me based on some conversations and seeing him in action on as the comish.
he was strong on the wind-power/Delamrva hijinx and I can’t remember any calling out any industry in such uncomromising terms as he called out Delmarva.
So, I declare him untainted.
