And atleast we have a Republican Gov now. We are trying to change.

How about this Delaware having two Dems for Senators (one the very pious Biden) and that awful, awful Soccer Mom Governor?

I have already visited the local Repubbie party in Georgetwon Del and by my discussion with the Sussex county chair, the pubs are hopelessly in bed with the Dems.

This state really needs me.

I have driven by the local GOP building in Georgetown numerous times on my way to go surfing.

Politics are such a mess in Delaware and Maryland. I guess that 85% of the land area in these states are occupied by conservatives, but the 15% is packed with liberals who outnumber the conservatives. Unfortunate.

Sussex county Democrats are by FAAAAAAAAAAR more conservative than the New Castle County Republicans. Take it from me. I spent 21 years involved in Delaware politics. When I got tired of being a reporter, I became a lobbyist. I was also on the Executive committee for one of the republican districts in Dover for 10 years.

This state really needs me.

I don't mean to disenchant you - but the bipartisan working of Delaware is historic in nature.

Get to know the people, you'll soon learn that I am correct about the Sussex Dems. The NCC Republicans are closer to the liberals of Maryland than the Sussex Dems will ever be.

The problem is the state is basically controlled by NCC because that is where the population base is. Once above the canal the northest liberal socialism is palpable. The conservatives of Lower Slower Delaware, on both sides of the aisle rarely have a chance.

southern Delaware is not the problem - northern Delaware is.
