What Does Debbie Harrington’s Move to Leadership Signal for the 9th?

As Alby noted in an open thread, the Delaware Democratic Party leadership is now white-male-free.

New party chair Betsy Maron becomes the first woman to lead the party, and Coby Owens and Debbie Harrington, the first and second vice-chairs, are the first African Americans to hold those positions.

That’s all great, but what does it mean on the ground?

The primary to face Kevin “I’m not one of THOSE Republicans”  Hensley is more or less on hold until after the district lines are redrawn.  However, it is not too early to see the same perennial losers milling about near the starting line.

Perennial losers sounds mean spirited, but I don’t know what else to call the people who keep winning primaries but losing to the mediocrity that is Hensley.
