If you were worried that Lisa Blunt Rochester was not going to be sufficiently pro-business, she wants you to know that your worries are unfounded. In an “editorial” and email that seems like it was written directly, to me LBR basically says – “Relax, Everybody, I’m Carper Version 2.o”
A Broader Platform to Serve
Dear Friend,
As I travel across Delaware, I like to remind folks that “we’re living history.” Right now, we are writing the pages of the next generation’s textbooks. We have a number of critically important questions we need to answer: How can we best move toward affordable and universal health care coverage? How can we prevent and mitigate the long-term and short-term effects of climate change? How can we protect our right to privacy and control our data in the digital economy?
That must be why she is so quiet in DC, she travels the state so much “reminding” people that she actually exists and letting them know how she is going to be a champion for “universal health care coverage” and “climate change” when she eventually does show up in DC. And how is she going to be this great advocate for two pressing Democratic priorities? Wait for it…
I’m excited to join the House Committee on Energy and Commerce because it’s a broader platform to serve you, an opportunity to share our state’s unique perspective, and a chance to help position Delaware and our country for economic success in the future.
Oh, dear. Delaware’s unique perspective. If that isn’t coded, then OMFG isn’t shorthand for: Olivia Munn Fan Group.
As I continue to meet with folks up and down the state, I want to hear your stories and your ideas about addressing and solving those challenges because, as I always have, I carry them with me to Washington.

More traveling up and down the state? Jesus. But first, read my editorial in the news journal which is basically this letter with a little bit about paying for groceries with an ATM card tacked to the top.
