However, Wendy's "position" on vaccines is, unfortunately, not a piece of sound reality testing. So if you guys can confront Polly, I guess I have to do the same http://delawarelibertarian.blogspot.com/2009/07/wendy-jones-and-school-age.html cassandra is gracious here.

Wendy's apology was probably the best you could expect and props to her for coming over to try to explain her views. This is better -- I'll remind all of the good Democrats here -- than the Democratic candidate who you'd think might be interested in us knowing where she stands.

I suppose I can always hope for Booth to win and to win his House seat instead. Brian - no harm done - I like you a lot better (from what I do know about you) than I do her any day. Hey, between her choice of words and those of Polly the Cracker this should actually be a hilarious Senate race - why isn't it? darn.

(BTW, I didn't ask for one.) Also, there was never a time in this country when "pollack" was PC, but keep digging. Is that really what you consider an apology? (BTW, I didn’t ask for one.)

I am more pragmatic. I would personally believe the protections need to be in place. Not sure on the LPD's stance. We haven't taken an official position, and many are divided. Some want government out of the decision while others believe there is a need for the discrimination protection. Never thought I would need to have a conversation on vaccination. There is no official LP position. Never thought there needed to be to be quite honest. What Wendy said was purely her opinion and should not reflect on the party as a whole.

Heck, the progressive write-in doesn't even have to live in the district - the protest still counts, and at least you'd be voting your principles.
