Around the Horn Sunday
This week’s roundup of local political news from around the Delaware blogosphere.
Around the Horn Sunday
We lost a blog this week, as Dana Garrett retired (temporarily perhaps) as a result of a new job that will take more of his time. That is the problem with individual blogging. You almost have to be retired, or independently wealthy, to do it by yourself. Now, some do it, and do it well, […]
RD 37 Special Election Results Thread
We forgot to put up a thread this morning reminding people of the 37th Representative district to vote today. The special election for replace Joe Booth featured 37 year-old public defender Rob Robinson and 50-something lobbyist and realtor Ruth Briggs King. We’ll post results as we see them. Department of Elections on-line results. Update 1: […]

Help Cast The DE Political Blogosphere Movie
Here is something we have not tried in a while. I guess the summer slowdown and talk of identity have put me the mood to put on my casting director’s hat. Me > I’m hoping for Ron Livingston but will probably be played by Oliver Platt. Mike Castle > Steve Buscemi Tom Carper > James […]
A Very Special Around the Horn
Tonight, I was prepared to, at best, declare that coverage of the right wing local blog,Delaware Politics, would no longer be a part of Around the Horn, or at worst, end this column, which provides coverage of the Delaware blogosphere. Why? Because of the attempted outting of Kavips by Dave Burris at Delaware Politics, and […]
CRI’s Impact on Real People
I’m not going to assign blame to a particular individual for the posting of payroll information. I don’t know if that decision was made by the Director of CRI, board members or the anonymous money men behind the whole thing. But Dave Burris got all bent out of shape for Kavips’ dissection of one of their employees resumes. Dave’s main complaint seemed to be the poisoning of the well for said director in his next job interview.
If a state employee resume comes across a potential employers desk, CRI’s database of payroll data is likely to assist the employer in negotiating salary.
