See this article in Bloomberg Business Week and come back for a chat. Small businesses are are exposed to bank hacking risks that banks are doing nothing to manage. If your account is hacked, the banks position is basically - tough luck.

Not wishing to roll around in excrement, I didn't watch the most recent GOP "debate." From what I'm reading about it though, Perry screwed the pooch. By all reports, he garbled a gimme "bomb the shit out of them" defense policy question, defended his HPV vaccine when he should have been claiming that it was a Kenyan plot, and looked more than a little outclassed by Romney. So, the question is still, will the teabags push back against the GOP shot callers?

Assuming Governor Markell, Lt. Governor Denn, Senator Carper and Congressman Carney win reelection next year, and assuming Attorney General Biden wins a third term in 2014 and Senator Coons and State Treasurer Chip Flowers win reelection to their respective offices in 2014, it sets up 2016 as an interesting year for possible confrontation and primaries among the deep Democratic statewide lineup.

Kent County Democratic Committee chair Abby Betts has endorsed Mitch Crane for Insurance Commissioner. This is interesting because an incumbent Dem can usually depend on the party Dems to close ranks.

Due to the funeral procession for Lt. Joe Szczerba tomorrow morning, I-95 North, from Route 141 to Exit 6 (Maryland Avenue) will be closed from 7:30 a.m. until 8:00 a.m. In addition, Route 141 South from Route 2 (Kirkwood Highway) to I-95 will be closed during this time. Once the funeral procession exits I-95, there will be intersection closures along Maryland Avenue, Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard, and Justison Street. Wilmington Police will be manning all of these intersections.

Remember all the hey in conservative circles a certain picture of Barack Obama not having his hand over his heart during the National Anthem during the 2008 Iowa primary. It was proof, according to them, that Barack Obama was not an American, or that he hated America, or something. So conservatives, what does this picture prove:

A new Quinnipiac poll in Florida shows Rick Perry leading Mitt Romney 31% to 22%. Meanwhile, a new Suffolk University/7NEWS poll in New Hampshire shows Mitt Romney leading with 41%, followed by Ron Paul at 14%, Jon Huntsman at 10% and Rick Perry at 8%.

Sarah Palin has sent a message to her supporters: If you want her to run, show her the money.

There is this crazy argument floating around that the bankers and money managers who drove the economy off a cliff (then got paid for it) should be investigated. There is the crazy antiquated notion out there that even rich people who indulge in criminal behavior should be investigated, arrested, come to trial, be judged, and face punishment. One of the people who is pushing that quaint notion is our own AG, Beau Biden.

Speaker Boehner can't control his own party. He really has only three choices: 1) resign, or 2) govern the chamber with non-teahadist Repubicans and Democrats, or 3) go full teatard.
