Update: Red Clay Board Member, Kim Williams, Replies To Jack Wells
I was actually stunned to find this response in my email this morning. Once again it was copied to everyone.
The Republican Female Problem
Welcome to 2012 – The Year of the Women. And women are furious. And while Romney may have won last night’s debate, he’s losing women. Take a look inside at a chart from TPM. Look what happened to Romney's favorability among women once the contraception debate entered the discussion. And make no mistake, this is a debate about contraception. Oh, Republicans are trying to make this about religion, but that's not going to fly. Why? Because it's a lie.
Delaware Liberal Tracking Poll Results — Beau Biden
The Attorney General was smart to pass up a run at the Senate in 2010, after having much of his first term as Attorney General taken up by his deployment to Iraq. Now, after more time and accomplishment in the job, particularly including his role in the 49 state mortgage settlement, he has a record, and it seems we like that record. He has a 70% approval rating, coming in second to Lt. Governor Matt Denn as one of the most popular politicians in Delaware.
I Forgot About The Republican Debate
Just turned it on in time for a question about contraception. The audience booed and howled. Mitt and Newt got all self-righteous. Then Newt asked the moderator why Barack Obama, in 2008, wasn't asked about his support of infanticide. Oh my! They really have no shame.
Wednesday Open Thread [2.22.12]
Rick Santorum is now the stronger general election candidate against President Obama. I assume the reason for that is he inspires social theocratic fascists and is largely unknown to the rest of the general nonpartisan population, while Romney is now pretty much hated by everyone everywhere.
Even Delaware has an Approval Rating
Just to make sure that our state itself is not feeling left out of our Tracking Poll, Public Policy Polling has conducted a nationwide poll concerning the favorability of the fifty individual states.

I Need This To Happen.
Donald Trump told CNBC he would "seriously, seriously" consider jumping into the White House race if Rick Santorum wins the GOP presidential nomination.
Jack Wells Questions Red Clay
If you aren't on Jack Wells' email list, I'm surprised - since everyone seems to be on this list! But if you're not... welcome to dueling emails. It begins with the one Mr. Wells sent to Red Clay on its hiring practices. Ms. Floore, the CFO of Red Clay responds.
What Would Have Happened if John McCain Won the Election?
If John McCain had won, and he had sticked to current Republican austerity dogma and done nothing to rescue or stimulate the economy in early 2009, what would have happened? We don't have to guess. Because the conservative governments of Germany, France, the U.K. and elsewhere in Europe have provided us with our parallel universe.
Delaware Liberal Tracking Poll Results: Paul Clark
Karen Weldin Stewart has company on the bench of most unpopular politicians in Delaware. Paul Clark has a 51% disapproval rating, and a 30% approval rating. The rest don't know him or don't care. Still, a negative -21 point favorability spread is not something to smile about, even if this is an inaccurate non-random internet poll.
