Comment Rescue: Your New and More Conservative State GOP.

So this is the new and more conservative Delaware GOP? Christine O’Donnell and her lawyer suing each other, Sussex County Councilman Vance Phillips and Sheriff Jeff Christopher in a physical altercation, State Party Chairman John Sigler putting the seal of approval on racism, and Dover City Councilman David Anderson using the Holocaust for political laughs. Delaware Democrats need to invent a word for “way the Hell more than a super majority.”

Zombie Casino Alert!

It's not quite the Zombie Apocalpyse (Casino Edition), but Delaware's casinos have formally asked for the state to make them healthy. Or, at least, healthier. According to this NJ article, Delaware's casinos will be asking for givebacks to the tune of $10M on licence fees as well as for the state to reduce the taxes on the games and slots.

What Does Romney Stand For? Nothing, As Far As I Can Tell

Up until recently I never gave Mitt Romney much thought. He was just sort of there. And while I'd never vote for him, I never viewed him as horrible. Which was why I kept my eye on him. Out of all the Republican candidates Romney was the one I considered the biggest threat to Obama. The reason I viewed him as a threat was his ability to appear reasonable and sane, and with the economy the way it is I could see people being comfortable with voting for him. I don't see that any more.

Tempers Flaring in Sussex? – UPDATED

We received a tip this evening that there was some sort of physical altercation at County Council between Councilman Vance Phillips and Sheriff Jeff Christopher. Georgetown Police were called to the County Council Building by the sheriff. The matter is under investigation by the police and no arrests have been made at this time. Note that during this altercation, one of the people was armed (guess who?).

Kevin Kelley’s Cardinals

Many in this area, if not the overwhelming majority of Mr. Kelley's constituents, are Phillies fans. So that was kinda a dick move on his part for him to stomp over the hearts of still mourning Phillies fans. So tonight or tomorrow, when the St. Louis Cardinals lose the World Series, I call on Mr. Kelley to stand up in the council chambers and congratulate the Texas Rangers, while wearing a Phillies hat. Of course, I probably just jinxed the Rangers, and now the Cardinals will win and then Kelley can stand up again for the Cardinals.

David Anderson Bait

"We'll repeal Obamacare and get rid any idea that you have to have abortion coverage or contraceptive coverage. One of the things that I will talk about that no president has talked about before is I think the dangers of contraception in this country, the sexual liberty idea and many in the Christian faith have said, you know contraception is OK. It's not OK because it's a license to do things in a sexual realm that is counter to how things are supposed to be," - Rick Santorum, taking the Christianist war against individual freedom back to contraception.

‘Bulo On Al’s Show-Wednesday, Oct. 26

We'll be talking Occupy Delaware, the latest Wilmington mayoral developments, Nancy Cook, Michele Rollins and much more. The Al Mascitti Show airs every week day on WDEL-1150 AM from 9 a.m. to 12 noon. I'll be on at 10. I do believe that the masked sleepwalker may also make an appearance as well.

How Not To Be Mayor

Let’s start with the announcement rollout on Monday by Charles Potter and Dennis Williams – as I noted in my Sunday post, the Williams announcement was expected sometime this week. Yet Monday afternoon, Potter sends an email to his list declaring for Williams’ Representative seat, clearly catching Williams off-guard (see Esteban Parra’s article here).
