These constituent questions are good ones and there is no reason for Carney to dodge them. With regard to the environment, Carney wants to appear to be a rational guy.…

Tomorrow and tomorrow and tomorrow creeps on at it's petty pace, and still only one real announcement since my last update back in 1873. Rick Santorum found the most homophobic county in PA to make his announcement yesterday. He appears to be running on a platform of "Its my turn because I came in second last time"

Let's face it, the DE GOP doesn't attract the top tier. Republican presidential candidate Carly Fiorina's attempt to attack former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton (D) didn't quite go as…

I don't have time to get into how this latest defense of Josh Duggar is perhaps the most morally bankrupt defense yet - but I have to make an observation. The most morally upright people I know are also often the least religious people I know.

May 26, 2015 Dear Fellow Republican, I wanted to make sure I let you know that there are very few guest passes remaining for the 2015 Delaware Republican State Convention this coming Saturday morning. Convention delegates and other guests are excited to welcome Republican presidential hopeful Carly Fiorina as the keynote speaker, and I'd love to know that you're going to be there with us as we launch the 2016 campaign season. Simply click the link above and you'll be able to register online, but there are only a few passes left so you'll need to purchase your ticket immediately to ensure that you have reserved space for this Saturday's event. I hope to see you this weekend! Charlie Copeland Chairman Paid for by the Delaware Republican Party

Nine people have died after a shootout between rival motorcycle gangs in Waco on Sunday, when gunfire erupted in the parking lot of a Twin Peaks restaurant in the central Texas city.

Where is the White leadership on this? Why aren't moderate Whites speaking out and condemning this? What is it about the white community that allows this culture of violence to flourish?

Dear Governor Bush, Acknowledging that the invasion of Iraq was a bad idea doesn't "disrespect the troops." It respects the truth. Jason330

Claire Snyder-Hall would lose a Democratic primary to Tom Carper, but that's not the point. The Democratic Party needs the moral leadership of people like Snyder-Hall. I only hope that she isn't already mobbed-up in the corporatist shit hole so much that she'd regard a primary challenge to Tom Carper as an affront to propriety. Her work with Common Cause gives me hope to think that she is not. But if not to win, why run? That's a legitimate questions, Snyder-Hall knows as well as anybody that running is hard. But I think a primary challenge from the left could help bring the discussion of income inequality back home to Delaware. It could make Carper account for his Republican voting record, and put issues from the environment to women's health in play. Tom Carper's utter contempt for the party of Truman, Kennedy and FDR is well known, and on constant display. If he is not primaried, it could very well reveal our contempt for democracy.

Bernie August would lose a Democratic primary to Tom Carper, but that's not the point. The Democratic Party needs the moral leadership of the Green Party people who have left the Party in disgust. Do I blame them for leaving? Hell no! The Democratic Party, particularly the Delaware Democratic Party is a festering shit hole of corporatist functionaires. And yet the Democratic Party is the only viable counterweight to its own wrongheadedness. If not to win, why run? That's a legitimate questions, but I think a primary challenge from the left could help bring the discussion of income inequality back home to Delaware. It could make Carper account for his Republican voting record, and put issues from the environment to women's health in play. Tom Carper's utter contempt for the party of Truman, Kennedy and FDR is well known, and on constant display. If he is not primaried, it could very well reveal our contempt for democracy.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Senate Democrats have dealt President Barack Obama a stinging setback on trade by blocking efforts to begin full-blown debate on his initiatives. All but one Senate Democrat defied the president Tuesday by voting to prevent consideration of his request for "fast track" trade authority. Such authority would let Obama present trade agreements that Congress could ratify or reject, but not amend.
