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 […]

Filed in Delaware, Featured by on August 7, 2024 1 Comment

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 […]

Has Trump Become Fat Elvis? Who am I to say no?: He used to seem so formidable, a very real threat to American democracy, the pal of dictators around the world. Now even Putin is dissing him, cutting the very prisoner deal with President Biden that Trump said a few weeks ago the Russian dictator […]

If you only listen to one of the Rev’s podcasts this year, make it this one. This is why Erik Raser-Schramm is one of my favorite people of all-time.  Check it out. Biden Finalized Prisoner Swap While Withdrawing From Presidential Race.  A truly great accomplishment, quite an example of compartmentalization: For a president who pledged […]

Filed in Arts and Entertainment, Featured by on August 1, 2024 6 Comments

While few months can ever match last month for music,  these tunes are quite satisfying, with a few genuine stunners in the mix.  Think of it as that follow-up album that people only grow to appreciate years later.  Or–just enjoy the tunes: Nathan’s Fave?: I hear echoes of Whiskeytown.  If you don’t know ’em, you […]

I can’t sleep.  I’m writing this at 1 a.m. Ever since I started here at Delaware Liberal back in 2009, my overriding theme has been the toxicity of the Delaware Way, and how that inside deal-making has slowed and sometimes halted real progressive gains here.  Democrats and Republicans consistently placed the interests of Delaware’s wealthy […]

Let’s take a quick […]

Filed in Featured by on July 31, 2024 8 Comments

He was better off out of public view: “I didn’t know she was Black until a number of years ago when she happened to turn Black, and now she wants to be known as Black. So I don’t know, is she Indian or is she Black?” Later he said “she was Indian all the way” […]

Delaware’s Most Intriguing Primaries Of 2024: #8–New Castle County Council President

Filed in Delaware, Featured by on July 31, 2024 3 Comments

I’ve never understood why someone would run for this office, one where you have to campaign countywide (or, come to think of it, not), when you can run for a district comprising one-twelfth of the county.  Especially since each vote on Council counts the same. Regardless, five Democrats have chosen to run for this seat, […]
