Math Skills at the News Journal
I am reading through this morning’s article on how none of our Senate Democrats are being challenged this fall while every Republican is (a realization of the 62 District Strategy in the Senate), and come across this paragraph: The Senate Democrats hold a 13-seat majority — enough votes to pass most bills, including those requiring […]
I’m so confused!
Okay, I’m one of those undecided contributors DelawareDem referenced. I like both Carney and Markell, and – admittedly and shamefully – confess that I’m not very up to speed. So… convince me. Why should I support one over the other? (Geez, even the DSEA couldn’t decide!) What are the differences, and why do they matter.
Ask Dr. Liberal
A reader writes: I have a question… Does anyone know how many banks are incorporated in Delaware – and of those, how many are on shaky ground? Isn’t a big chunk of Delaware’s revenue bank dependent? Signed, Nervous Nelly McSmelly~ Dear Nelly, You sure hear a lot about banks screwing the pooch lately don’t you? […]
An Ominous Growth
The post below is a direct cut & paste job from Josh Marshall at TPM. I’m not blockquoteing it to aid in readability. …………………………………………………………………………………………………………… In the post immediately below I referred to Obama’s audition for the role of ‘head of state/commander-in-chief’. And as a potential wartime president and in the rhetorical universe we’re now living […]
Well, We Know Now Who to Vote For.
I am not sure if Delaware Liberal will be officially endorsing any candidate. Indeed, from reading emails and the comments from my fellow contributors, and in contrast to our perception in the party, where they think Markell is the “Golden Boy of the Blogs”, we front page contributors here are actually divided on who to […]

The other day after tommywonk commented on delawonk’s “high-mindedness” I said: Delawonk is a fly by night john carney sock puppet. Two weeks after the primary he will be gone. I’ll put $5.00 on it. Any takers? Man, I hate being right all the time. Here is the header from delawonk: Here is the header […]

Rank and File Dems Blast Carney
I’m sorry I missed the Markell presser. From the release it sounds like it Carney’s miscalculation is going to cost him. Brian Selander, former Communications Director for Senator Tom Carper, member of the Progressive Democrats of Delaware, and Democratic Committeeman began the press conference demanding that the Carney campaign pay back the full cost of […]
BREAKING: Carney Campaign’s “Rovian” Press Release
Al Mascitti is just reporting that he has received a press release from the Carney campaign demanding that Jack Markell refund the money he received for his campaigns for State Treasurer to those who donated. They are saying that Markell transferred that money to his gubernatorial bid. This is a Rovian preemptive strike to distract […]
“Hey, umm boss? I think that toxin is killing me…”
We don’t pay you to think shitbag! Get back to work! Rep. George Miller (D-Calif.), chairman of the House Education and Labor Committee, said he was determined to stop a “secret rule” that he described as a Bush administration effort to block the next president from trying to reduce worker deaths and illness caused by […]
