Happy Father’s Day Joe
It seems a growing number of people want Biden to be Obama’s VP. (h/t tommywonk) David Plouffe is a Delawarean so who knows. I have to think he is a long shot.
Blue-Gold Football Game Next Saturday
I haven’t made much of a secret of the fact that I am always interested in helping out disabled children. When one of our regular readers asked me to post on the upcoming Blue-Gold game, I was almost embarrassed that I hadn’t thought of it myself. I went to one of these games years ago […]
New Republican Slogan: It’s Every Man for Himself
Talk about jumping ship. The Times reports that with the GOP for once running seriously behind Democrats in campaign fundraising, Giuliani is offering to hold fundraisers for down-ticket Republicans.

Delaware Liberal Summer Book Club: It’s On
OK, I know some won’t like it, but we are going for Obama’s Audacity of Hope as the first book. We will arrange for a date to get together (real or online) sometime after the 4th of July. In a hat tip to Disbelief, I will commit to have the real meeting (if it happens) […]
Bush Or McCain: On Women’s Health Issues
My Dad sent me this video after reading the “I’m Voting Republican” post by Cassandra. We could make this an ongoing game of Who Said It? I love the format. [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x7Z4dxjRv4g[/youtube] See how you do on the quiz.
Tim Russert is Dead
Tim Russert has died of a heart attack at the age of 58. The long hours of this campaign season can’t have been healthy.

The argument is almost convincing: (click on this link if you want to see a bigger screen version) [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FiQJ9Xp0xxU[/youtube] But given the up front and personal view we’ve all gotten of the repub agenda in action over the past several years, there are probably more (and better) arguments to be made. Post your take on […]
Computer Problems
Forced Vacation from blogging for me. Send me a smoke signal if anything interesting happens.
