A Patrick Henry moment, and I hope he enjoyed it as much;

As a member of the Congress, Henry was an outspoken advocate of strong measures of resistance. At a meeting of the Virginia assembly (right) in Richmond on Mar. 23, 1775, he called on the colonists to arm themselves, with the words:

” . . . as for me, give me liberty, or give me death!”

Soon after, he led the militia of Hanover to force Governor Dunmore to
surrender munitions belonging to the colony.

Delaware with a Christine O'Donnell win is about as good as it gets Son.

Her momentum will glide her to victory in Nov.(but we still need to work our asses off to help her make it happen).

Delaware will be role model for the nation and the rats will all crawl back into their holes.

Is CNN dark yet?
