Delaware Liberal

Well, the news blackout was in fine form this weekend, so just a couple of important items made it through the filter:

• • Ending debtors prison in Delaware

  • Holding unvaccinated dipshits accountable through health insurance, and

  • Delaware's most mediocre Dems

We know the good ones. We know the bad ones (The Dems that have sold their souls and votes for a few measly bucks, or for a spot a little closer to power [Coons, Longhurst, Poore, Pete, KMcG etc]). But there is a whole layer of Democratic elected officials that don't get much mention because they do just enough to stay off the radar. I know. That is  "bad" from an objective perspective. I mean, they've been elected to get shit done for ordinary Delawareans not just mark time and collect a pension. But that style of failure isn't aggressively bad like the terrible office-holding shitheads like Chris Coons. And while a few of these Dems were dis-invited by voters to continue using up Leg Hall oxygen in the last round of Democratic Party primaries, many continue to hide in plain sight. My list of the top mediocre starts with the overly ambitious Bethany Hall Long. What does she stand for? That's easy, she truly believes in the next rung of the ladder. I'd also put the terminally-uninterested John Carney on the "bad through sheer mediocrity" list. Who are your top picks?

What's the missing ingredient in the Delaware left? I agree with Rob that it is a killer instinct. I already listened this episode of the Highlands Bunker, but I'm revisiting it this weekend. If you a an incorrigible lefty like me, it is really worth a listen.

Praising "good Republicans" is a popular pastime among media and Dem elites. The Good Republicans Political journalists are forever promoting the supposed "good Republicans," who weirdly, are always, at least…

January 7th is the one year anniversary of my peak optimism! I honestly and foolishly thought that Republicans would be able to shake off Trump once and for all after the failed coup.

In a statement Coons expressed disappointment for what he termed Biden's "ill-timed and divisive" rhetoric.  "This is not the time to ...and Chris he didn't say anything like that but with everything we know about Coons, it was really believable. Frankly I think it speaks volumes about the Senator's character that so many people who read this headline found it totally plausible.
