Establishment Dems exhort liberals and progressives to "hold their nose" and vote for execrable establishment Dems because otherwise "the bad Republicans will..blah blah blah..." But when someone the sober moderates…

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a7bRFZ3e4jY You've probably seen stories like this. Fetterman is just clowning the fuck out of Oz and High Dems like Chris Coons think it is unseemly. They think Fetterman should…

Convicted State Auditor, Kathy McGuiness, is still ridiculous.  (See below). https://www.lawyersgunsmoneyblog.com/2022/07/the-independent-state-legislature-theory-is-both-transparently-idiotic-and-a-major-threat-to-american-democracy   The only operative unifying theory in all of these (“INDEPENDENT STATE LEGISLATURE” THEORY) cases is “Republicans are entitled…

I seem to remember Democrats running on "doing something" once. That was a long time ago. Now we allow our party to be controlled by its two worst members. If…

Georgetown Historical Society, proudly flying the treason/Lynyrd Skynyrd flag, is obviously a bunch of MAGA shitheads and racists. They would like the Georgetown Town Council to declare themselves to be…

This series in which REV interviews the WFP endorsed candidates is illuminating and inspiring. I think the Shané Darby ep is still locked, but you can start with this James…

Joe Biden would have made a pretty good President 20 years ago. The press would have liked him, and the GOP wasn't completely bonkers yet. Oh well. Play Offense On…

Here we are again.  You with your morning coffee probably thinking Jason330 is such a snappy writer and has such insightful insights, I'll bet he has amazing Abs. And it's true, I do have amazing  pyramidalis, external obliques, internal obliques, and transversus abdominis.  To be honest, it is the first thing most people notice about me. But most people are shallow.  Not deep thinkers like you and me. And it is your deep thinking I am depending on.  In today's open thread, instead of a survey of today's "news"  we will be constructing the optimal Democratic candidate from a bunch of spare parts called "One virtue from a Delaware political figure you like, and one virtue from a Delaware political figure you don't." Then we'll wait for lightning to strike and charge our Franken-candiate via their neck bolts.  But mark the rules well - one virtue from a Delaware political figure you like, and one virtue from a Delaware political figure you don't. Adherence to rules makes the game fun for everyone. I'll start and take the lowest of low hanging fruit.

I'll leave it to you to guess which I favor and which I disfavor.    

I have mixed feelings about this new political party [Non-Partisan Delaware] forming (congealing?) in Delaware.  I might go into why I am thusly mixed in the comments, but I also…

I suck at blogging.  I'm still not following the news.  But this item penetrated my anti-news carapace. In our smaller world,  I met Lydia York  and was very impressed. Meet her yourself at an upcoming fundraiser, and donate away. I also had saw an excellent 'DelShakes' production of 'The Tempest' put on in Rockwood Park.  Standout performances by Gerrad Alex Taylor as Caliban and Lexi Thammavong as Ariel.  Runs (Wed - Sun) through July 31st.  Buy tickets here.

I have spent a lot of time considering ‘The Delaware Way’ and how it has shaped the Black community, particularly in Wilmington, the place where it’s been most important to…

I kinda wanted Biden as the nominee again, but I realize that was out of discomfort around the idea of replacing him as the nominee.  Now I'm not sure we…
