My sense is that Bethany Hall-Long REALLY wants to be Governor someday. If I’m right, she is making a big mistake by not primarying the weak, distracted, friendless, checked out, dithering John Carney. She’d have one candidate to beat – a weak, distracted, friendless, checked out, dithering candidate. But if she waits her turn and runs in four years she’ll be facing a platoon of tough, determined, fighters in a primary. Simply put – she is blowing it.
This same logic goes for Sean Lynn and if not Lynn, whatever candidate Delaware United, and/or Mom’s Demand Action are looking at supporting. Take Carney out in 2020 and you have a walk to the Governor’s office in an Anti-Trump wave year. Wait, and you’ve got a tough uphill fight.
