Welcome to your Thursday open thread. It looks like another nice late summer day today. Yesterday I went downtown for a 5K race. Candidates were everywhere! John Carney, Michele Rollins and Colin Bonini, though none of them mingled much.
Delaware has been in the news quite a bit with the Castle-O’Donnell race. Stephen Colbert jumps into the Delaware surge by talking to 2 different Delaware politicians – Mike Castle and Joe Biden.

Crazy Sharron Angle is at it again. This time she tries to explain what she meant when she said our government violates the 1st commandment:
In an interview with ABC News, Angle was asked about her past comment that the agenda of Harry Reid and President Obama violated the First Commandment. (Not the First Amendment — the First Commandment. As in, their liberal big government is a sin because it takes people’s attention and dependence away from God.)
“I said that? No I didn’t say that,” Angle told Jonathan Karl — then possibly remembering it. “Actually, that was a discussion I was having with CBN. We were talking in very Christian terms. That’s what Christian broadcast is — that’s their focus — so you speak the language of the folks that you’re communicating with. And I was speaking in their language. And the language that I used was that in our country, we have become a country that has put our faith, not ‘in God we trust,’ which is on our money — as you know.
“Not ‘in God we trust,’ but in government we trust, and that is what I was referring to — that we have allowed government in many ways to take the place of God,” Angle said.
Hey! She was just speaking Christian, no worries!
