State Auditor Sets Up Opioid Slush Fund Tracker.  Great work that would be absolutely unnecessary if BHL had not used it as her personal slush fund to benefit her political allies.  It goes w/o saying that BHL and her ‘staff’ are the last people who should be auditing this.  We can now add over $90K […]

Guest Post by the MoMo: “It’s not too late” – me, an undecided voter. This is a message to O’Mara, the candidate with the most to gain. Summer sucks the lifeblood from voter contact, paid and grassroots for all candidates. Speaking to officials and Party members and primary voters, the clear message is that it is […]

Delaware’s Most Intriguing Primaries: #6–Democratic Lieutenant Governor

Filed in Delaware, Featured by on August 14, 2024 3 Comments

I think this primary becomes less intriguing with each passing day.  The three candidates are State Senator Kyle Evans Gay, State Rep. Sherry Dorsey Walker, and Dr. Debbie Harrington.  I’m not saying that the race is over, but Kyle Evans Gay appears to be the front-runner.  I reported on her campaign finance windfall this morning, […]

Oh, man.  Got my work cut out for me next week as we wade through the campaign finance reports. I start today, though, with a blank canvas (oops, almost spelled it canvass, which is what I’m doing after I write this Open Thread and get caffeinated).  Let’s color it in. ‘Dog Bites Man’ Headline: The […]

Just A Note Before We Go…Onto Something Other Than The Attempted Swift-Boating Of Tim Walz.  Two notes, actually. The guy who swift-boated John Kerry is the same guy trying to pull the same dirty trick on Walz: The common denominator in both efforts: Trump campaign co-manager Chris LaCivita. LaCivita played a key role in the […]

Vance Tries To Swift-Boat Walz.  Could work. Nobody thought it would work against John Kerry either: Speaking in Michigan, Donald Trump’s Republican running mate said: “You know what really bothers me about Tim Walz? When the United States Marine Corps … asked me to go to Iraq to serve my country, I did it. I […]

This presents a great pick-up opportunity and a chance to strike a blow against the Delaware Way.  How ‘Delaware Way’ is Bill Bush?  He shepherded Delaware Way developer shortcuts through the General Assembly.  As Lonnie George’s consigliere, he almost single-handedly overthrew the decision of the Del-Tech board to install ‘Dr.’ Mark Brainard as president.  If […]

Who Will It Be?  Who Do You Want It To Be?  I want it to be that folksy Governor of Minnesota, Tim Walz.  I think it will be Joel Shapiro.  So that James Carville can gloat about owning the libs.  I hate that beady-eyed sumbitch.  This is the Open Thread, so predict away! Bangladeshi PM […]
