WGMD is reporting that Lewes resident Mike Miller plans to run for the newly created 6th State Senate District seat.
Need a refresher course on who Mike Miller is? Here is Celia Cohen:
Mike Miller was the Bad Old Days. He was barely an excuse for a candidate, and not just because of his petty arrest record, but for calling Saddam Hussein a legitimate leader like George W. Bush and for putting up a sign urging people to vote — on the wrong date.
Mike Miller recruited himself to run not once, but twice in 2000 and 2002, a hapless example of what happens when the party’s strategy against someone like U.S. Rep. Michael N. Castle, a Republican who also has been a governor and lieutenant governor, is unconditional surrender.
Mike Miller was one of the unknown candidates that ran against Mike Castle in 2000 and 2002. If memory vaguely serves, he has also tried to run for some other races in Kent County and statewide. In other words, he is a perennial losing candidate. And he is back. I bet he loses handily to Andy Staton. Staton has done the leg work for this race, preparing for years. Miller is just jumping in for vanity reasons.
