I don’t know about you, but super duper Tuesday is one of the dumbest names of an event in the history of events. Now I really hate the MSM. With the primary looming, people are weighing in left and right. On the left, the Obama camp is so happy that Tommywonk has endorsed Barack that they are flying him in on Sunday for a rally in Rodney Square. I am very impressed that little ol’ Delaware is getting the candidate himself. If you are getting up early to get in, here’s a suggestion for where to look in the sky before the sun comes up. I’ll also have some Hillary events posted here later today. It is going to be an exciting weekend.
Obama’s wife, Michelle, was here on Thursday and she impressed Steve Newton and his kids. The venue, not so much. One more reason to like Obama, Feroce thinks he’s too liberal. Maria Evans wasn’t nearly as impressed.
If you are wondering how important Tuesday is, check out Delaware Watch for the definitive guide. Oh, and Kavips has a great story; “Two conservatives walk into a bar.” And Hube covers the Clinton camp’s attempt to make Florida and Michigan count. Over at Liberal Delight, Ryan has some complaints with the MSM’s coverage of this primary. Over at CSPT, they make the case that McCain is conservative enough to be the candidate of the crazy-ass Republicans. At JttR, Gary talks about the dumbest Presidential campaign EVAR!
While we are tied up thinking about Presidential politics, John Carney has jumped in with both feet to make some progress in the Bluewater wind project. His plan is to sweeten the pot for legislators to lure them away from their corporate overlords at Delmarva by bringing the jobs. Tommy has another expose’ on Delmarva’s BS tactics.
In the Governors race this week, we had our first Dem debate. Catch the video at DWA and read the review at Delaware Watch.
Everyone’s favorite ex-superintendent, Joe Wise is back in the news. He should team up with Atkins and make a run for Governor and Lt. Governor.
There is a lot of geeky goodness in the DE blogosphere this week. Over at FSP, Smitty has a simple freaking question. Steve Newton has a story about bluetooth gone to hell. Duffy has a post highlighting the jihadi tech skillz. Finally, Gazizza has a post about some new paths in genetic engineering. I just want some of those new superpowers. Mmmm, super-strength.
Speaking of superheroes, Hube is finally coming around to the whole Bill Clinton thing…
Nancy has a post on the development of the old Hercules golf course. Guess what? Developers are running rough-shod over the county again.
Mike Mahaffie is cursing Art Garfunkel for his literacy. Paul Smith is amused by the answer to a question, but the question itself is questionable. And Duffy cracks me up because despite being so different politically, we seem to live similar work lives. And mynym again blows my mind.
Can you help a blogger out? Go fill out Mat Marshall’s political survey so that he can get his homework done.
I hope you all can come out to see Obama on Sunday afternoon in Wilmington. My hope is that he will get us out of this war in Iraq, where at least 80,744 Iraqis have perished and 3,943 of our soldiers have paid the ultimate price for George Bush’s war of vanity and greed. Peace.
