Let’s Help Out a Progressive Candidate
Jim Westhoff is running in the 35th against Dave Wilson. Jim is a progressive candidate in what is not a progressive district. Here’s a clip of his opening statement at a forum the other night: [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_z2qkQwGK1c[/youtube]. Jim could use some shekels to help with his campaign. He’s been canvassing his butt off and has signs […]
Tuesday’s Asshat of the Day
It would be too, too easy to give this to Sen. Jim “I am the King of the Senate” DeMint for his unilateral decision to halt all work in the Senate unless the bills meet his smell test. But I decided to go with Sharon Angle, the Mad Aunt of our very own O’Whack-a-Mole. Did […]

Checking the Ground War in Brandywine Hundred
Took a drive through some communities in Brandywine Hundred today, from Claymont to the tony Perth and Pembrey developments.

Why are we talking about keeping the Bush tax cuts that have been an abysmal failure at creating jobs and keeping the economy strong? Even 64% of people with incomes over $250K believe that their taxes should be higher.
Monday’s Asshat of the Day
I’m in a quandary. I’m not sure if I should award this politician an Asshat award or a Chutzpah award. Last Saturday night, the Hola Awards were given out to people who work to strengthen the Hispanic community. It was a sold-out affair at the Rehoboth Beach Convention Center. A few politicians were in attendance, […]
C’Mon Delaware Episode 19
Click here to listen. The begining is all Eagles talk. I Like Michael Vick and Donviti doesn’t. My reasons for liking him are more substantial than Donviti’s reasons for not liking him. The second part is about Obama and I think we manage to make some pretty good points about the President’s use of “State Secrets” to justify some un-American Executive Branch behavior.
Castle only gets 5% in a write in race
Coons leads 49% to O’Whackado’s 40%, with Castle getting just 5% in a possible write-in campaign.
Palin vs O’Donnell Rumor
Take this with a grain of salt, but – given the personalities involved – I’m leaning towards believing this: Sarah Palin helped Christine O’Donnell rise to Tea Party pre-eminence, but now the former Alaska governor is questioning the wisdom of her decision to help the upstart. Palin fears the sexy younger politician will steal her […]
