THIS IS NOT ->Delawareliberal

C'mon Jason. Castle is just another Bush lackey, but Spivak is running a terrible campaign. Have you seen his website? It is awful - you need a magnifying glass to read it, there are tons of wasted space, and it is designed to put you to sleep. The campaign "blog" hasn't been updated for more than a month! How is he going to get people excited and to the polls? How has he got a chance?

Yeah, I hate to see Castle roll to another victory. But Dennis is running a Gore 2000 or Kerry 2004 campaign. No passion and no excitement. There are 100 different ways to generate the buzz necessary to have a chance to beat Castle, but I don't see Dennis doing any of them. Too bad. When I saw Dennis at the PDD meeting, I thought we really had a chance. Not so much any more.
 

Sad but true. I keep going after Castle - when I'd rather be talking up Spivack.

A while back I wrote that he needed to make sure he did not fall under the spell of some political "consultants" that would work to water him down - and it seems that might have happened.
 

I think the Spivak campaign has two big problems. Money is the obvious one, but it also seems like he doesn't have much help. They don't seem to have volunteers or even people willing to do the basic stuff like wear a button. Even people with Markell, Carney, Biden stickers on their cars don't have Spivak stickers. I see Spivak and his manager everywhere, but that's about it. Beau, on the other hand, has volunteers everywhere to go along with his big campaign money. Maybe some of the shoo-ins could share the wealth?
 

Didn't you get the memo?

It's bad luck to have a Spivack sticker on your car.

Jason put one on and backed his car into a post.

Or maybe it was all that weight in the passenger seat that threw you off.
 

"I think the Spivak campaign has two big problems. Money is the obvious one, but it also seems like he doesn't have much help."

If he got the help, he'd get the money. But he needs something big to get the ball rolling. He needs to get on the front line someplace, and take a very public stand. I don't know if he is being held back by Carper and Joe Biden because they sure aren't giving him any help agains their buddy, Mike.
 

Agree with Anonymous that the lack of help and a lack of a splashy issue are what is burdening the Spivack campaign. In my part of the world most Dems act as if they didnt know there is a primary. Dennis should take the questions asked of Castle in the NJ interview and publically demand answers. Castle seems to be nowhere the issue except this blog
 

Dennis should be running against Bush and the rethuglickin majority. He should take to the streets - go to the crime-ridden neighborhoods, to the failing schools, to the soup kitchens and homeless shelters - and ask, no, shout "why?". And then he should go to our industrial and academic research facilities, and ask why stem cell research, energy independence, and the fight against diseases is not being adequately funded. And then he should go to hospitals and talk about healthcare. And get his website and blog to start to talk to the people the way Dean's did.

Yes. Yes, he should. And while he's there, he can ask them what the Democratic Administration in Delaware has done for them.
 

FSP,

"He can ask them what the Democratic Administration in Delaware has done for them."

Yes, I wrote the item you quoted, and I agree with you - but that does not let the rethugs off the hook for wasting OUR dollars and thousands of lives in Iraq that should have been home.
