BLUE & GOLD
Posted: July 11, 2008
Delaware politicians show their true colors. Who is
feeling blue? Who is looking like gold? The Grapevine
knows.
| Joe Biden |
Democratic senator |
GOLD |
Although he never quite got around to
endorsing Obama, he'd say yes to veep. Typical Joe -- he's ready to be the
drum major before he joins the band |
| John Carney |
Democratic lt gov running for governor |
BLUE |
He takes credit for creating a wind farm.
Big deal. Isn't that what politicians do for a living? |
| Jack Markell |
Democratic treasurer running for governor |
BLUE |
He debuts his campaign with a "57 in 57"
tour. If governor doesn't work out, he's a lock for a sales job at Heinz
ketchup |
| July Fourth |
|
BLUE |
When did the parades become a subsidiary
of Campaign Inc.? Bands and fire trucks are cool, but there are more
politicians waving than U.S. flags |
| Pam Maier |
Republican state rep moving to Colorado |
GOLD |
She escapes from the land of Pike Creek to
Pikes Peak, while leaving behind a mountain for the House GOP to climb to
keep the majority |
| Ruth Ann Minner |
Democratic governor |
BLUE |
Her second term is nearly over. It was
like a new reality show -- "American Idle" |
