More Surprise Primaries Coming

Filed in National by on January 25, 2018

The primary of Tom Carper is a welcome surprise. But elected Dems at all levels of government should be worried, particularly those Dems that have just been shuffling through the motions. What is the next step for activists who have joined marches, and committed their energies to organizations like Network Delaware and Delaware United?

There is a rumbling and grumbling across the state at the weak effort that Professional Democrats are putting into resisting, not just Trump, but Republicanism in general.

It is happening. Constantly parroting Republican talking points on the need for budget cuts isn’t going to cut it.

    Generic Republican thinking Dem

  4. mouse says:

    Oh. I’m confused now. Is there really a primary challenger for the seat?

    No. Not yet anyway.

    “Repubilicanism” is a good way to phrase it, corporatist and Republican Lite work as well. Truth is a proud and openly progressive Dem is near non existent in this state, I know of none. Bummer, as we need new faces and new blood in a state that does not flush politicians as frequently as we should.

  7. Is Jaques contemplating a primary against Carper?

  8. Heh. Heh-heh. Good one.

  9. Delaware Left says:

    Earl Jaques is far to the left of most of the caucus on issues that actually matter.
