Women Should Not Have This Fear
As a man, sometimes I forget how tough it is to be a woman. Seriously, no joke here.
Stop Street Harassment, a blog for women about the constant harassment they face on America’s streets, blogs about a Delaware woman who was followed by a man in a pickup who was subsequently arrested.
Men, think about this for [...]

News Journal Flies to Defend Mike Castle Against Bad News
This editorial framed as a news story is not surprising.
Don’t shade Delaware a fully blue state quite yet
Even though Democrats Barack Obama and Jack Markell easily won in Delaware last November, there still is a Republican to be reckoned with.
According to a poll released Tuesday, U.S. Rep. Mike Castle has more support today than Attorney [...]
PPP Polling to Post Pleasing Percentages? UPDATED: No.
Jason has made an absolute guarantee that Mike Castle will not run for the Senate seat. But what happens if the PPP polling shows Castle close to or beating Biden?
Last week Raleigh, North Carolina-based Public Policy Polling announced they would poll several races in Delaware for 2010.
On the company’s blog [...]
Mike Castle’s Bloodthirsty Frozen Embryo Slaughter to Ramp Up
Everybody is talking about the stem cell research un-ban. I guess we should too.
Here is the real story. Science is back:

While ‘Bulo has been critical of the News-Journal and other media outlets, one has but to only look at how he and [...]

Frugal Weekend Blogging — Fix Your Stuff, Don’t Replace It
redwaterlily has found an interesting project (via the GOOD website) promoting the idea of fixing our stuff, rather than replacing it. That can be a real challenge when so much stuff seems to be made to be disposable — finding someone or even a way to fix it can be its own labor.
Anyway — [...]

9 Days Until NCCo Special
A tippster reminds us…
Tagging Mike Castle is fun and important, but don’t forget the February 19 special election for New Castle County Council. Republicans haven’t.
We have a great candiate in Lisa Diller – so let’s get this done.
We don’t need to let the R’s steal another special.
Who is the Mystery Guest?
They just teased a guest for this AM’s Al Mascitti show.
Anybody know who it is?
Comment Rescue: A Self Rebuke
The special election totally caught DelawareLiberal with its pants down. Perhaps the gen. election results combined with Tobin’s number crunching gave eveyone the impression that the outcome was a forgone conclusion. Perhaps not.
Perhaps we just got caught up in holiday silliness and bullshit as Mr. (Mrs/Ms ?) Kavips suggests….? [...]
DTR Interview of Karen Weldin Stewart Reviews
I don’t listen to Delaware Talk Radio, but I hear they interviewed our esteemed Insurance Commissioner-elect.
So did they tear into her plans to reconstitute “pay to play” or what?
Republican Takes McWilliams seat
I am sorry to report that Republican Thomas Kovach was elected today over Mike Migliore by a margin of 73 votes. This brings the number of Republicans in the House to 17 (24 for the Democrats).

Kowalko on Al Mascitti tomorrow morning.
Reading that title now…I realize it could have another meaning. But no, State Representative John Kowalko will appear as a guest on Al Mascitti’s show on WDEL tomorrow morning at 9:30 a.m. to discuss, among other things, the Republican push polling being used against him in the 25th District. Be sure to tune in.

From the Files of “Only in Delaware…”
A hay bale fire has closed the northbound lanes of Interstate 295, causing major backups on both 95 North and Southbounds. Officials had stated that they expect 295 to reopen around 4 pm.
Can I ask where there are bales of hay along 295?? I have never seen them, but then maybe I am not paying [...]
Campaign Outreach
I hate to do this, because I geniunely want to Karen Hartley Nagle to succeed now that she is our Democratic nominee for Congress, just as I wanted Dennis Spivack to succeed in 2006. But I have to criticize the KHN campaign for a moment. Yesterday, Brenda Irwin of the KHN sent out an email [...]
