An Axis of Deceit: The Gordon/KWS/Williams/Bullock Cabal

So the Tom Gordon/Karen Weldin Stewart/Dennis P. Williams/Christopher Bullock cabal has yet again decieved the Democratic Primary voter by handing out this flyer today, saying the Party has endorsed them all. I guess they are Post-Truth Democrats, aren't they? Meanwhile the truth is the Democratic Party has endorsed Paul Clark (not that I am happy about that, mind you), Mitch Crane, and Renee Taschner, and offered no endorsement in the Wilmington Mayor's race. So perhaps you want to ask one of the four (who will hopefully all lose tonight) why they feel so comfortable with lying.

Tuesday Open Thread [9.11.12]

It is called Schadenfreude, and I enjoy it immensely. Chuck Todd:
"In boxing, you know one fighter is trailing in points when, in the final rounds, he throws everything he can to land a knockout blow against his opponent. The same is largely true in presidential politics. And so yesterday while campaigning in Ohio, we saw Mitt Romney and his team try to throw the kitchen sink at President Obama."

The Polling Report [9.11.12]

Yesterday we concentrated on national tracking polls. Today we have some new national nontracking polls to obsess over, all showing substantial bounces for President Obama. And we also have some new state polls too. But first, our new map...

Primary Day in Delaware

Well, the polls are now open. Go out and vote, then report back with any observations. This is now an open thread for polling place reports for the day and predictions. Polls close at 8PM. If you don't know where to vote, look it up here. And once the polls close, come on out to Timothy's on the Wilmington waterfront for some liberal libations and to watch the returns come in.

Tuesday Daily Delawhere [9.11.12]

September 11, 2001 was 11 years ago today. I think this is the first anniversary of that horrible day when it fell on the actual day of the week that the attack happened on, a Tuesday. I don't know why that makes a difference, but to me it does. The heroes that day were our first responders: our police, our firefighters and our EMTs. Across the country, but especially in the Northeast where the attacks occurred, you will see memorials to their service and in their honor. Such a memorial is this mural on the side of what Wilmington Fire Department at what location?

Lots of Calls Tonight

I have had one from Tom Gordon from Oklahoma (405-308-4474). I had another anti-Karen Weldin Stewart call, but I could not hear who it was from. It was couched as a Voter Alert about somebody withdrawing support from KWS due to her actions in office. The call came from 302-415-3500. And I just got a call from Dave Brady, reminding me to vote tomorrow for him, even though I am no longer in his district. Harris McDowell had a similar problem. I wonder if I have going to have problems voting tomorrow. I have my updated voting card, so the DOE knows I have moved. I guess the campaigns have old lists. Let us know what calls you are getting.

Mitt’s Just A Regular Guy

There's a Google Doc circulating among conservative websites written by Hal Prewitt who bought one of Mitt Romney's homes back in 2009. The doc, if you choose to read it, lauds Romney as a regular guy.
Ours is a factual story that provides a rare glimpse and insight into the real Mitt Romney. Does he really relate to the average American?
Yeah, a $5+ million dollar ski house of over 9,500 square feet is something all Americans can relate to.

SEO And The Local Races

SEO is Search Engine Optimization. It is a geeky dark science that strives to improve the ranking of web pages through a variety of techniques. It can also show you who is working on improving their online persona. I like to think of it as a way of controlling the first impression of someone looking for more information. Let's look at how the candidates have done.
