The Next Generation of Delaware’s Leadership is Almost Exclusively Female
Lisa Blunt Rochester is probably going to replace Carper amicably (although I’d prefer a violent primary battle). Sarah McBride clearly has statewide potential and ambitions. Kathy Jennings must be considered in that group. Will Chris Coons continue to rot in place and defy the manifest will of Delaware’s voters? Betting on Coons being allowed to pull a Bill Roth is a long shot. Coons is no Roth. That means only Matt Meyer has path to a future statewide office.
Even statehouse level leadership will be all female eventually. The shift has already underway in the Senate. In the house, Pete (an unhealthy looking 67 years old) is a lumbering bumbling dinosaur. After him I don’t see a very deep bench among the guys.
I’m not saying the matriarchy will be any more enlightened or progressive than what we’ve had, but I’m not sad. The guys have had a nice long run.
