Help Me Understand the Christine O’Donnell FEC Report. It’s Palinicious.

By Delaware Dem April 27, 201015 Comments

A gold mine of info. Christine identified a grand total of 15 people. Only 5 of those 15 people reside in Delaware. 4 of the 15 come from Arlington, VA (which probably means the individuals are RNC types or Republican lobbyists). 4 of the 15 reside in Texas, and 2 of those 4 have given amounts that exceed the $2400 limit. Indeed, one individual from Houston, Texas gave $5000. Click through for more.

City of Wilmington Mayoral Race Cattle Call — Spring 2010 Edition

By cassandra_m April 26, 20109 Comments

Adam Taylor of the News Journal does the work of rounding up the declared and the rumored, so I can do this without appearing to betray any confidences. This list fairly humorous, especially if looking a this field in its entirety. But many kudos to Adam for doing this and for having this story picked up everywhere -- I first heard it this AM on WHYY.

The problem is, we do have memories. We have old blog posts to refer back to.
