Congress

I'm not a mike castle fan. He votes to take my guns away, raise my taxes, he keeps going on this ridiculous quest to have the federal government pay for embryonic stem cell research and in my opinion he is destroying the Delaware republican party. I was really hoping that there would be a decent, preferably pro-life democrat up this year but they have me Karen Hartley-Nagel. After reading her positions online and seeing her speak I don't think I can bring myself to vote for her. As such, I'm throwing my lot in with the libertarians. A friend of mine recommended I take a look at Mark Anthony Parks and I feel confident that he is the best man for the job. If you have any policy questions that you don't feel are addressed in enough detail on his website I can attest that he gets back to e-mails pretty quickly so it isn't too late.

Donald Draper, Matt Denn and Mickey Mouse

Did anyone else see the latest episode of Mad Men? I was blown away by the first season but I think this season is drifting away from the format that made season 1 so badass. What the hell was Don Draper doing having sex with some hippy in Los Angeles? Why is there some gay European walking around Sterling Cooper? I don't need this show to get all preachy on me, I just want to see more of the alcohalic New York business work of the late 50s/early 60s.

I was walking around the UD football game this weekend handing out Charlie Copeland literature. One woman was unloading stuff from her car when she heard my friend and I talking with another group of people. When she heard Charlie's name she spun around and walked tword us. She said she has worked with Matt Denn at the Insurance Commissioner's office for the last 4 years and is ready to do anything she can to help Charlie win. This is not the first time we have gotten a similar response out of people who have been working with Denn in Dover. We gave her a sticker and she gave us her e-mail. I really hope more people get a chance to meet Matt Denn before the election.

And just in case you missed it, Mickey Mouse is now registered to vote in Florida. God Bless ACORN.
