Thursday Open Thread [4.5.12]
Now that the Republican Primary is ending, I am going to start posting campaign ads in the open threads. But before that, we do have two polls from Pennsylvania and New York showing Romney winning. That seems to confirm that yes, the race is over.
Sussex Musical Chairs
As you know, the retirement of Sen. George Bunting as set up a game of musical chairs downstate, which already had two games going on with the new 6th District Senate seat and the new 20th District House seat added to the area. Last night, former Rep. Shirley Price spoke to the 38th RD Democratic Committee and announced that she will be running for her old seat.

Wednesday Open Thread [4.4.12]
“Nobody thinks Romney’s going to win. Let’s just be honest. Can we just say this for everybody at home? Let me just say this for everybody at home. The Republican establishment — I’ve yet to meet a single person in the Republican establishment that thinks Mitt Romney is going to win the general election this year. They won’t say it on TV because they’ve got to go on TV and they don’t want people writing them nasty emails. I obviously don’t care. But I have yet to meet anybody in the Republican establishment that worked for George W. Bush, that works in the Republican congress, that worked for Ronald Reagan that thinks Mitt Romney is going to win the general election.” — Joe Scarborough, on Morning Joe.
Live Long….
I think one of the reasons I like President Obama so much is that he is a geek, a sci-fi geek, a Trekkie, just like me. Look at that perfect Vulcan salute.

DL Tracking Poll Results — NCCo Executive Paul Clark (Round 2)
In February, New Castle County Executive Paul Clark had a 30% approval rating and a 51% disapproval rating, rivaling Karen Weldin Stewart and everyone in the Republican party as the most disliked politicians in Delaware. Things did not get better as the weather warmed. Now he has a 76% disapproval rating and a 15% approval rating. This tells us two things: 1) the first poll was freeped by whatever minimal support Clark has in the party, and 2) our internet poll is obviously inaccurrate where Clark is concerned. Yeah, Clark is not liked and is disapproved of, but it does not rise to the level of 76%.
Tuesday Open Thread [4.3.12]
Bill Clinton thinks that President Obama will win election quite easily.
“I think that he’s gonna win handily, and I have for a long time. I actually have since the 2010 elections. [W]hat the right-wing says always sounds better when they’re sayin’ it than when they’re doin’ it. So I thought after the 2010 elections, they basically assured his reelection.”
DL Tracking Poll Results — AG Beau Biden (Round 2)
