John Carney took Coons' spot on Morning Joe this morning and did a very good job. He stuck to the "stay at home & flatten the curve" message, which is working. To Carney's credit, in spite of the fact that we don't have adequate testing capacity, Delaware was an early adopter of "this is serious" approach. It is a realistic outlook that has slowed Delaware's rates of infection relative to the US in general. He also managed to get through the entire segment without trashing Democrats - which was very refreshing.

...I can remember when Republicans invented fictional "death panels" so they could accuse Democrats of wanting to kill Grandma.

DelawareLiberal has many Republican readers who support Coons for Senate. We read your comments, and know that you like the fact that Coons shares your values and is eager to undermine Democratic initiatives. You appreciate the fact that he often makes speciaous "both sides" are at fault arguments in the press, thereby providing cover for Republicans. It is natural and fitting that Delaware Republicans support Coons in view of his record. DelawareLiberal would like to hear your stories.  Contact us through the "Got a Tip" link at the top of the page. How much of your support is predicated on the fact that you have no real statewide candidates to support? How much is based on genuine affections for Coons? If you are a Republican that supports Chris Coons for Senate, we want to hear from you directly.

When all of this is over, there will be an accounting. We'll know who told the truth, who lied. We'll know who helped put Trump's players in place, and Chris Coons' name will be on the wrong side of the ledger.

LAURA INGRAHAM (HOST): And Mr. Secretary, finally, I just want to say, I know you are working -- and all of you are -- like 24/7. I mean, it's a lot, and thank you for what you're doing. You take a lot of grief, as does the entire administration, the president right in front, so thank you for your work on behalf of the American people. We are praying for you and for the recovery of all of those afflicted. ALEX AZAR: Thank you, Laura. Thanks for all you do also to keep us all informed.
