the sky IS falling….
By my calculation, the two largest U.S. banks, Citi (C) and Bank of America (C), have over the last year lost roughly as much in market capitalization as is the current value of the other six U.S. banks combined. To be specific, Citi and BofA have together lost $296-billion in market capitalization over the last […]
Observation
I think I liked the abortion trolls better than the gun nuts. At least abortion trolls had (inside their crazy heads) a sense of common decency. The gun nuts are all about murder and mayhem. The more murder and mayhem there is in society the more they feel justified in clinging to thier hackneyed talking […]
Mike Protack Continues to Surprise
Protack is on Mascitti right now and I have to say that I like Mike’s take on the Wilmington gun violence issue. I have not looked into the technology he is talking about, but at least he is talking about gun violence. Anyway, we should all be outraged whenever ANYBODY is shot in Delaware. Not […]
What Have You Done This Week To Help Elect Jack Markell?
Charlie Copeland has the resources of a whole radio station (WDEL) at his disposal. Bill Lee has a bunch of zillionaires. John Carney has the Democratic Party hacks. Jack has you. For one tenth of what Lee is asking his rich-ass supporters, you can help Jack Markell become Governor and continue to stick up for […]
Charles Lamot DuPont Copeland giving tools to yoots
From “the speak of the devil and he appears” file, I just got a campaign email from Copeland… While there are many things we can and should be doing to improve the economy of our state, there is one critical point that needs to be made if we are to make our state great again. […]
Crashing the Party
On Saturday, I will be representing the good folks at Delaware Liberal and Delaware progressives in general at Netroots Nation convention in Austin, Texas. I will be on a panel titled Crashing the Party: Transforming Netroots Activism into Grassroots Action Within State and Local Parties We will be discussing the problem with working with such […]
The Obscenely Rich are Lee’s Base.
Retired Judge Bill Lee held a swanky fundraiser at the “opulent Montchanin Road home” of Irenée and Barbara du Pont last evening. According to the Lee campaign, 215 people attended at $250 a head, which according to my math, means that Lee raised $53,750.00 last night. Lee admitted that fundraisers such as these are the […]
Del. Teachers Can’t Decide.
While it seems that the most important and all encompassing decision facing Delaware voters is who is Delaware’s Hottest Blogger, the executive board of the Delaware State Education Association was more concerned with who to endorse in September’s Democratic Party. And they could not choose! Is that allowed? I was not allowed to give two […]
Delaware’s Hottest Blogger – Boxers, Briefs or G-Strings
Now that I have your undivided attention… For the last few months I have sat on the sidelines watching this fight play out, but now that there’s money on the table it’s time to add the feminine mystique into the mix. Having met the three main contenders I feel comfortable, and not the least bit […]
Looks + Charm = Hottness
Hottness is not a one demensional thing. So while liberalgeek may be more charming than me, and I’ll conceed that Donviti is better looking than me – I am still Delaware’s hottest blogger because of my Baldwin Matching Index is higher than both. The chart below explains it all. My BMI (Baldwin Matching Index) crushes!
UPDATED: Rick Jensen Getting Paid To Shill For Copeland
That is what I’m trying to find out, because the shilling is frankly over the top. To get to the bottom of “Jensen-gate” I’ve written to a contact in the WDEL sales department. Bill, Is Charlie Copeland paying to have Rick Jensen advertise for him in the body of his show? If so, shouldn’t Jensen […]
Breaking: Paul Clark’s Bad Day
Paul Clark has pissed off too many people and brought too much heat on the NCC by cozying up to developers in such a brazen manner. How much heat? Ciro Poppiti has been calling around to see if people would support him running against Clark. Poppiti’s wine importing business was bought out by the Delaware […]
