Voters Favor Taxing The Rich….go figure.

Filed in National by on July 12, 2009 29 Comments

Good stuff from fivethirtyeight.com. I don’t know which will be more satisfying. Seeing the Dems do the right thing for a change, or listening to the working class republican sheep bitch and moan about Pete DuPont being forced to pay 1% more in taxes.

The Sarah Palin Party

Filed in National by on July 12, 2009 15 Comments

There has been endless discussion on this blog and elsewhere about Sarah Palin and her relationship with the Republican Party.

“Gun Grabber” Mike Castle Coming for Your Glock

C’mon wingnut NRA freakshow. Pour millions into a primary. Pretty please… In all seriousness, this is a great tactical move by Castle as he tries to distance himself from the moronic shrieking mob on the right. Delaware is to the left on gun control and taking this up as a banner issue is hot button […]

The Dangers Of A Two Party System

Filed in National by on July 12, 2009 7 Comments

Several weeks ago I wrote a post pointing out how, through closed primaries, the 21%ers will control who’s at the top of the Republican ticket.  Frank Rich digs deeper, and, as bored as I am with Sarah Palin, Rich points out why we may be dealing with her in 2012.  (Read the whole article.) In […]

Wingnuts Getting Fuster-Clucky Over “Mike” Castle

Filed in Delaware, National by on July 12, 2009 16 Comments

Clearly Mike Castle is going to have to run (for all intents and purposes) as a Dem and his announcement this week on the Charlie Copeland hour of the Rick Jensen show will no doubt be full of “moderate” asides, “bi-partisan” flibble-flabble and good will towards men. Well, it seems that wingnuts, both near and […]
