Pity The Poor Billionaires. Finally, a debate over the role of billionaires in America. Something tells me that ‘Save the Billionaires’ is not a winning rally cry. In fact, they make the perfect villains b/c many of them are villains. Making Elizabeth Warren perhaps a…heroine? D’s Elect Shitload of Judges in Texas, R’s Move To […]

Bloomberg Enters Race. Let’s cut to the chase. Biden is leaking oil and whatever his Depends can’t contain, and the corporate D’s are petrified. Bloomberg, of course, has no chance. Just ask yourselves who is going to vote for him. I can’t think of anybody. But if Biden’s corporate supporters call a time out, he’s […]

Does Even Barr Have His Limits? If he does, my guess is that his limit is that he’s not going to jail for this guy. Not that he isn’t still in the bag for Trump, though. As to Trump, there is no limit to his crimes. Sanders Releases Comprehensive Immigration Plan. Calls for the breakup […]

Rethugs Losing The Suburbs. No, not just Delaware County, which is pretty amazing by itself. The DC suburbs are gone. And D performance in the Kentucky suburbs across the river from Ohio bodes ill for R’s in 2020. Mecklenberg County in North Carolina, the list goes on and on. To me, that’s the political story […]

Delaware Leads Nation In Per Capita Subsidizing Of Horse Racing. I think it’s reached the point where horse racing can be characterized as animal abuse. If so, Delaware is the #1 abuser. In fact, only Pennsylvania has spent more in total to prop up this failing ‘sport’ since 2010. It may be just me, but […]
