So we didn’t get John Carney to run against Mike Castle because Tom Carper made like Tony Soprano. Well, we still have a challenger right? We can still knock down Mike Castle even if we can’t knock him out. Right? *crickets chirping* Al Mascitti zinged me on the air yesterday morning when I started in […]
