Markell Raises an Impressive $1.4 Million
Former state Sen. Charlie Copeland, one of the governor’s chief Republican critics, said Markell’s $1.4 million is more than enough to win a gubernatorial race in Delaware. “I think anytime he leaves the state, he’s having a fundraiser,” said Copeland, who is supporting [little known Brandywine business man Jeff] Cragg. “Why are all of these people out-of-state giving him this money he’s not going to need this year?”
I am suprised Charlie had to ask the question, but in so doing, he made a glaring admission.

Rethug ‘Party Elders’ Search for A Winning Candidate Begins in 3…2…1…
Talk about a nomination that won’t be worth shit, that’s what the R’s are facing. Not to mention unhealable self-inflicted wounds in that party that could well bring down the House and enable the D’s to keep control of the Senate. Almost unthinkable considering the current economic straits. So, I have no doubt that search for an ‘electable’, or at least not ‘disastrous’, candidate may already surreptitiously be under way by the self-appointed ‘adults’ in the Party.

Delaware SnOMG.
So how are the roads out there. I have a party to go to at 11, so hopefully it is all cleared up by then. Here is an update from Jim Westhoff from DelDOT.

Mark Your Calendars
Here is a listing of political events for the next three weeks, courtesy of the Delaware Democratic Party. If you have a political event, meeting or rally you want publicized, post it in the comments below and I will put it on the calendar.
Call Governor Markell. Have His Back.
Evidently Gov. Markell is receiving lots of criticism from blood thirsty conservatives on his brave decision to grant clemency to Robert Gattis.
If you supported and approved his decision, and if you would have criticized him if he did not grant clemency, then you owe it to yourself, to us, and to Governor Markell to take at most five minutes and email him your thanks and support. His email address and phone numbers are inside.

U.S. Supreme Court Refuses to Hear Indian River Prayer Case
I just do not understand the need to turn every public gathering, whether it be a graduation cermonies, school board meetings, and other assemblies into religious events. It is as if someone wants to repeal the First Amendment and establish a National Religion, and then have the Government force the population to worship God according to the dictates of the National Religion.
BREAKING: Governor Markell Commutes Sentence
Governor Markell, for the first time in Delaware history, has commuted the death sentence of Robert Gattis to life in prison without parole. The Governor is to be commended for this brave decision.
