Vote to get a poll in Delaware!

Filed in Delaware by on March 2, 2009 10 Comments

Democratic pollster PPP is letting the internet decide which state to poll next: Delaware, Connecticut, or Kentucky. Go vote for Delaware right now. They will poll both our Senate and House race, testing Beau vs. Castle (Senate) and Carney vs. Castle (House), if Delaware wins out. I think all of us, liberal and conservative and […]

Specter Could Still Face Serious Primary Challenge

Filed in National by on March 2, 2009 23 Comments

Club For Growth wingnut Patrick Toomey, who almost knocked off US Sen. Arlen Specter last time, is reconsidering his decision not to challenge Specter in 2010. The reason? All together now…Specter’s vote for the stimulus package. Presumably b/c Pennsylvania’s just rolling in cash and new jobs: Toomey had been publicly mulling a run for governor […]

CR: God Created Teleprompters For A Reason

Filed in National by on March 2, 2009 12 Comments

This comment rescue comes from our resident spammer, Rebuild the GOP. One thing about Limbaugh’s speech, he didn’t read to the audience, he talked to them. Without a teleprompter Obama is lost. Why use a teleprompter? Mmm, maybe so you don’t confuse the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution? From Limbaugh’s speech: We want every […]

I really tried to ignore John – or, should I say Konrad? – Ziegler, but with material like the videos below… Another Republican gift that keeps on giving.  And in case you’re tempted to give his public persona a pass, he’s just as bad in his personal life. (h/t The Daily Beast and The Political […]

Deep Snow Thought

My top speed on the way to work this morning was 44 mph. (Rt1 soutbound between Middletown and Smyrna). The people going 20 are much more dangerous, it seems to me, than the people going 50.

Conservative Intellect-Kitsch, Oxymoron, or Both?

Filed in National by on March 2, 2009 9 Comments

The conservative freak show known as CPAC, starring Rush ‘n Joe The Alleged Plumber, has demonstrated how bankrupt what passes for conservative intellect is nowadays. (Don’t gloat, liberals, this can happen after 20-plus years of unbridled power, and it can happen to YOU, too.) Still, the carny sideshow nature of what the GOP has become […]

Santelli’s Dutch Oven Journalism

Filed in National by on March 2, 2009 10 Comments

Two weeks ago, Rick Santelli couldn’t get arrested. Two weeks from now, Santelli will be an ex-CNBC employee and gainfully employed at Faux News. What a short and familiar trip its been. Back on Feb 19th, Santelli seemed to have a Howard Beale moment, that is if Beale was more concerned with his bank account […]

Filed in Delaware by on March 1, 2009 2 Comments

Okay, Congressman Mike Castle must have orchestrated this Nor’Easter 😉 , because he is supposedly going to make an appearance on Monday morning at the Wilmington and Western Railroad on Route 41. His Corvair limousine will probably arrive sometime around 11 am as the state quarter presser is scheduled for 11:15. Is it just a […]

Comment Rescue: Deep Media Thought

Filed in National by on March 1, 2009 20 Comments

anon asks… So what media outlets DO you approve of? Which ones are doing a good job? Let me preface this by saying I’m talking about mass media. There might be a tiny sliver of media doing actual reporting – but my remarks are confined to the newspapers with actual circulations and TV shows people […]
