The more reasonable of the two redistricting plans will be discussed and debated tonight in the House Chamber of Legislative Hall at 7 p.m. I say that because the proposed Senate map makes no logical sense.

A child died Wednesday night after being ejected from a car during an accident at the intersection of Fourth and Lincoln streets in Wilmington. Nearby residents who rushed to the scene lifted a white Mitsubishi and found the child wedged behind the back driver's side tire.

Since the Sarah Palin for President boomlet started earlier this week, it would appear her polling fortunes, at least among teatard Republicans, have improved markedly, and she has not officially announced. She is going to win this nomination, folks.

Representative Dennis E. Williams is sponsoring a new bill tomorrow that would authorize two new casinos in Delaware. That would be in addition to the three already operating in the state (Dover Downs, Delaware Park, and Harrington), and also in addition to the Harrah's in Chester, and the two casinos in the Philly Northeast section. And that is also in addition to whatever Maryland has got planned. And that is also in addition to Atlantic City. And that is also in addition to possibly more casinos in Pennsylvania. ENOUGH!
