Tucker Carlson is on my TV right now. Saying, “Too bad about the failed Obama Presidency. He had such promise.” I guess right wing media memes need to start somewhere.

Skip to the 1:55 mark to listen to Old Geezer Mike Castle slobber all over Sarah Palin and John McCain. [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xIkLQPBUH2Q[/youtube] Ha!
Deep Thought: People Like Unity
Do you like unity? If you like a country divided by race, sexual orientation, class and culture, vote for John McCain. He promises to keep Americans at war with each other. If you like a country united by our shared American values of justice, equal opportunity and prosperity for all – vote for Barack Obama. […]
95% Likelihood of Bogus Media Narratives
Listening to Allan Loudell spend ten minutes trying to perform CPR on the cold gray corpse of “the Bradley effect” story on my drive home, I started thinking about going on a modified media black-out and getting all of my news from Mike Matthews afternoon show on delawaretalkradio.com rather than subject myself to the bogus […]
Comment Rescue: News Journal Deathwatch Edition
The NJ will probably never really die outright. Rather it will devolve into a glorified statewide “Dover Post” type advertiser. Here’s anon… I thought it was worthy of note that Gannett, the publisher of the News Journal, is laying off 10 percent of its newspaper workforce by December. Exact details will undoubtedly be trickling out […]

Sorry Delmarva 47, but I had to steal this photograph. Your humorous comments welcome.
Delaware “Literally” Featured in Nate Silver’s “538”
I guess we are going to have to get used to it. Any reference to Delaware will be preceded or followed by a reference to Joe Biden. He is Delaware now. At least to the nation at large. Much like the scene in Wayne’s World defined Delaware to the popular culture for much of the […]
The Conservative Brief for Voting for Obama
This comes from Andrew Sullivan who has been one of the top 10 Cheerleaders for Obama for quite some time now.

Message For The Troops From The Head Communist-Islam-o-terror-crat
kos is commenting on an article in the Las Vegas sun which points out that Dean’s “50 State Strategy” has worked. Read the whole thing…but here is a taste. And here’s one lagging piece of CW that still gets it wrong: [Dean is] usually associated with the loony wing of the party, the MoveOn crowd […]
Deep Thought: Everything is Relative
Who would have predicted eight years ago that an American attack within Syria would not be considered a big deal?
