Voters are
ign stupid. I mean,
, every election I'm reminded why nobody trusts direct democracy.
Here in Delaware we've had a really interesting Attorney General race. betewwn Bo Biden and Wharton. Now, Bo Biden is the Democrat and the son of Senator Biden. But here's the shit. the fellow has NO experience. He's never prosecuted a case in the state of Delaware. He worked beforehand for the FBI and did some work up in NY. But practically he has NO and I mean No experience.
Further, he comes off as sleazy. like his father comes off as slick, but worse, if you cna imagine that. Because he has that whole I'm a connected senators son complex. And he has run a really negative and sleazy campaign. Since he had basically NO platform all he ran on was Kiddie Porn. That's it. he was going to lock up sex offenders, and then he accusedWharton in his attack ads about not doing anything to lock up sex offenders. The thing is, we already have a whole system to do that, so it was really a non issue. In fact, his plan is probably going to take resources away from other departments.
So the guy creates an issue playing off fearmongering and then promotes a plan that sounds good but is both unecessary and unrealistic.
Now his Opponent, Phil Wharton, Has over twenty years experience as a prosecutior in the state. the man has servesd the community well. he's been involved in some of the biggest cases in the state. Including the Tom Capano Trial which drew national attention. He has first hand experience on how Delaware law enforcement is organized in the state and how to run its administration. He's been a part of it for over twenty years!
There is no bigger no brainer that Phil Wharton is the better candidate by FAR. My father is a hardcire democrat. When he voted today he voted all democrat. EXCEPT Bo Biden. EVEN HE voted for Phil Wharton. And we laughed about it over dinner. You'd have to be an idiot to vote for Biden. We both joked that Biden was gonna get killed.
Well, I thought that maybe it might be close. Say, 56 44 for Whartoon because of sheer ignorance, the democrat factor, and the name factor. But it wouldn't be close.
Well, guess what, half the precincts are in, and Biden's winning by ten
ing points. TEN!
It was so bad, that on the radio, one of the local commentators who's supposed to be a non-partisan commentator and is also a lawyer. And he was shocked. He was actually upset on the radio. Wondering how could people be voting this way. And he effectively called the Delaware voters ignorant without saying it.
And he's right.
So again, the voting public shows it's ignorance.
