UPDATED: Around The Horn Friday: Copeland, Shock the World Edition

Filed in Uncategorized by on January 25, 2008 21 Comments

Windpower has again dominated the week in the Delaware blogosphere. […and someone who totally kicked ass on that issue was Maria Evans at WGMD who put Charlie “who me?” Copeland in a tough spot.] The legislature is in session and that means that there is always movement, although some is hidden. The usual suspects have […]

Sorry that I haven’t done an Around the Horn for a while. Last week I was too tired because of staying up late watching Iowa on Thursday night. This week has been one of the best for bloggers in a long time. I think the highlight was the amazing opening day of the legislature. Jason […]

The Protack Express is a Train Wreck

Filed in Uncategorized by on December 16, 2007 110 Comments

Oh my.  I cannot believe the kind of crap that Protack gets himself into.  Now it’s the issue of the unpaid staff from his last campaign.  This comes after a foiled astroturfing of the local blogosphere and the failure to pay his consultants for the last campaign. The details are really starting to crystallize over […]

Kilroy Calls It Quits

Local blogger Kilroy (aka John Allison) has decided that he can’t fight the system alone.  He has decided to cease his involvement in all Red Clay affairs and resigning his post in the Republican party.  I cannot figure out if that means he’s going to stop blogging.  If he does, it will halve the number […]

Please let me thank donviti for a tour de force two weeks ago.  I, like most of you laughed my ass off.  Good show, my friend. Speaking of things that made me laugh, the whole Tommy Little/Frank Sims/IPOD debacle sank even deeper into the gutter last weekend with aTommy Little interview on WGMD.  You gotta […]

Around the Horn Friday: Escheat Shuffle Edition

Filed in Uncategorized by on November 9, 2007 14 Comments

I have to say that I am pretty saddened by the whole Lofink story.  I remember when Vince won his first election, because one of his sons was a student of mine.  I  hope that  the whole thing works out as fairly as possible.  I was pretty happy that with just a few exceptions, the […]

Around the Horn Friday (err…Saturday): Freddie to the Rescue Edition

Filed in Uncategorized by on September 8, 2007 48 Comments

Well this week we saw another Republican joker enter the fray. At least he did it on Leno, where jokes are acceptable. Turns out his given name is really Freddie. I Freddie Thompson do solemnly swear… Nice.  Nancy and Dana both call him out.  Frank Knotts can’t be happier. On the local scene I think […]

The following is a guest post from a fellow blogger that wishes to remain nameless (although if you are paying attention, I bet you can figure it out). I am deeply appreciative for the break and happy with the results. No one can take the place of Around the Horn. It is a classic. Just […]

Around the Horn Friday: Cranky Republicans Edition

Filed in Uncategorized by on August 10, 2007 4 Comments

This was a big week on the other side of the aisle.  We thought the race for the Democratic Gubernatorial candidacy was going to be interesting.  The Republicans are doing one better.  I’ll not get too deep into it, but make yourself a nice drink and wear comfortable clothes when you go over to FSP […]

Big shout out to Jason for doing ATHF last week. I had a birthday party for my son that kept me from having access for a long period of time. The good news is that it was indoctrination quality time for us. And now on to the news… Oh my, the Oberle story in the […]

Filed in Uncategorized by on June 8, 2007 16 Comments

Well the big news this week was that Jack Markell has announced that he is running for Guv’ner. This will potentially set up the best campaign that we have seen in this state since I’ve been of voting age. All over it this week was Tommywonk with the pre-announcement and then the announcement coverage. More […]
