NYT’s Jonathan Martin Clowns Coons

“This (contested primaries) is relatively new to us and it means that a younger generation of candidates view themselves as not being willing to work their way up through elections and they want to go straight for primarying our most senior elected official,” said Senator Chris Coons, who took Mr. Biden’s seat after serving on the county council.
1) I thought Coons was chummy with the media? 2) It still kills me when Coons & Carper talk about "The Delaware Way" like it is a good thing. It is like listening to some Catholic Priests talking about how close they are with the parish's alter boys.

Breaking: Mike Pence Wrote the New York Times Editorial

Several days ago Vice President Mike Pence used an intermediary to contact New York Times op-ed page editor Jim Dao. Through the go-between, Mike Pence expressed interest in writing an explosive piece for the paper, describing a "resistance" to President Trump within the government that works overtime to protect the United States from the president's worst impulses. The result, published on the New York Times' website on Wednesday, prompted speculation all across Washington about who the official is until it became obvious to everyone that it was Mike Pence.

This is what momentum looks like: Part 2

Kerri lives in Kent County, works in New Castle County, and advocates in Sussex County. Kerri is a working person, parent, and someone who is constantly improving. Here’s some of the stats on this race: - We’ve communicated with over 100,000 voters in Delaware - We’ve raised over $175,000 (which was ahead of our goal and allowing us to increase our budget and reach out to even more voters!) - We’ve developed over 800 volunteers - We’ve been averaging 2-3 press hits a day over these past few months (we even had to get a bigger venue for tomorrow’s election night watch party to accommodate all the press and volunteers coming) - Kerri won the debate with Sen. Carper (even his supporters told me Kerri won) What was once impossible, is now inevitable.

Ayanna Pressley Defeats Longtime Representative Mike Capuano in MA Democratic Primary Upset – Tom Carper, You are Next

In a major upset, Representative Michael Capuano has conceded to Boston City Councilor Ayanna Pressley in the Democratic primary for Massachusetts’s 7th District. Though results were coming in slowly and the race had yet to be called, Capuano conceded just 80 minutes after polls closed. Pressley challenged Capuano, who has been in Congress since 1998, from the left, and the race drew comparisons to Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s upset victory over Congressman Joe Crowley – particularly after Ocasio-Cortez endorsed Pressley.
We're coming for you Tom. You have more in common with Mitch McConnell than you have with ANY of your Delaware constituents, and you fucking flaunt it. It ends Thursday.
