That does not mean I will support Polly. As far as I have seen she does not have the knowledge to hold a seat. She is running on her daddy's name and expects the sympathy vote. Her campaign has her at the farm and in front of the trucks. This is probably the first time in years she has been that close to either. In school she was in her own little click not noticing the other students. How is the past going to reflect the future? Is she going to be gunho now and forget us if she gets in office. She will never be Thurman Adams even though she is campaigning on his name.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7893272060787897238.post-2671664477179744302009-07-23T16:24:48.851-04:002009-07-23T16:24:48.851-04:00i'm not really sure where that 2nd amendment t...i'm not really sure where that 2nd amendment thing begins and ends, but if it's open ended, there's this really cool surface to air missle launcher i've kinda had my eye on.....Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7893272060787897238.post-84167504326573095942009-07-23T01:26:32.568-04:002009-07-23T01:26:32.568-04:00i'm very curious as to theWendy Jones position...i'm very curious as to theWendy Jones position on senate bill 94 that provides for de-criminalization of medical marijuana in delawareAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7893272060787897238.post-25560181877448329062009-07-13T08:59:52.114-04:002009-07-13T08:59:52.114-04:00Polly is making a whistle stop tour of her distric...Polly is making a whistle stop tour of her district today, stopping in Bridgeville and Georgetown through Greenwood and Milton.

Running against a woman whose two primary qualifications are her father's name and her third-place finish in the Miss Delaware pageant considerably lowers the bar.<br /><br />You prefer Operation Pink to the Pink Pistols--obviously your political preference, but the fact that somebody makes different choices than you do is not a disqualifier.<br /><br />In the A1 intellectual world, gun rights = mediocre candidate.

You keep trying to change the subject, but I am not biting. I was specifically pointing out the mediocrity of your candidate. <br /><br />Given the choice, I'd prefer someone working for Operation Pink over Pink Pistols. Gay's right to own guns doesn't seem to be a pressing issue for the U.S. and I question the qualifications of somebody who thinks that it is.<br /><br />anononeAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7893272060787897238.post-4222496228523315772009-07-11T06:35:33.524-04:002009-07-11T06:35:33.524-04:00I actually HAVE a pink pistol, LOL.

I generally assume you've done some homework.<br /><br />At the very least, Wendy has demonstrated far more sensitivity to non-discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation, and the willingness to work for that in public than Thurman Adams or his progeny ever did.<br /><br />As for your preference for public policy experience, that's done us a lot of good over the past decade in DE hasn't it? We got into this mess at least in part by relying on the Adams and Booths of this world to make the tough decisions--something at which they have failed miserably.<br /><br />Funny, you usually do better than snipe at people based purely on your aversion to folks who are pro-gun rights. But I understand: putting a Second Amendment advocate in the General Assembly--regardless of anything else--would strike you as worse than either nepotism (Adams' daughter) or a conservative GOPer (Booth).<br /><br />Bring your best game next time you try playing.Steven H.

No where. I hate legacy candidates, particularly when there is no relevant record of public service. <br /><br />But leave it to you to try to divert attention from the fact that the nominee of your party has no record of public service and thinks that carrying a copy of the Constitution and being a member of the "Pink Pistols" has somehow contributed to the betterment of the world.<br /><br />I like to see people with at least some record of actually helping improve the world run for office.<br /><br />So you can try to divert, deflect, and project, but your candidate is still pathetic.<br /><br />By the way, usually you're more clever in your rhetorical devices.<br /><br />anononeAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7893272060787897238.post-51890764729885338502009-07-10T21:44:19.140-04:002009-07-10T21:44:19.140-04:00As opposed to being a third place finisher in the ...As opposed to being a third place finisher in the Miss Delaware pageant? <br /><br />I would rather have a political activist than a beauty queen who probably only reached the showing because of her daddy's power.<br /><br />Or a career politician who has been nothing but a shill for his party.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7893272060787897238.post-89122397834873485412009-07-10T21:14:30.064-04:002009-07-10T21:14:30.064-04:00A1

In other words, your contention is that<br /><br />(a) "normal" people shouldn't run for public office<br /><br />(b) Gun Rights organizations, especially gun rights organizations that specifically support the right of the LGBT community to protect itself do not represent public service or legitimate political activity.<br /><br />No, you'd rather elect the daughter of the previous incumbent based on the elitist idea that she should inherit the position?<br /><br />Your elitism is showing.Steven H.
