He should, but he said he wouldn't.

I don't know, Lieberman has some sort of agenda. I hope has enough grace to leave us after NH, that is in case Liebermania takes hold on Tuesday.

Liebermania? Even if Lieberman finishes second in NH (very unlikely), he will not win a single 2/3 state.

No? Think of the enormous momentum he would get after a surprise finish in NH!

well, should the unthinkable happen (lieb in 2nd) I think he'll generate some good momentum out of NH and perhaps get the ball rolling in SC.

Nobody knows anything about Delaware, really, except they have a Division 2 college fottball team, called the Mud Hens, who won the title this year.

Politically, Delaware's upper county, New Castle county, is the most liberal of the 3.

Why are everyone suddenly being so mean to poor Delaware? All I know is that is used to be a bellweather, and it's really small and hard to click on in a map...

How was I being mean to Delaware? When you mention Delaware to anybody in Ny, they always say "oh yeah, I drove through there once."

By saying that nobody knows anything about them, and mentioning the fact that they have a team somewhere way down...it looked a little mean to me...

Gustaf, you should love Delaware, formerly Swedish North America, but seized by the evil evil Dutch at some point in the 1600s. Delaware's most famous tourist attraction is the Old Swede's Church in Wilmington. Slaveholding until the Civil War, and considered a border state. Most of the state geographically, including the capital, Dover, have a Southern culture, accent, and voting tendencies. The strongest part of the state electorally is Wilmington in the north, seen as part of the greater Atlantic City/Philly area.

What all this means for Feb. 3 I have no clue.

Yes you're right! I had completely forgotten about that, but I do really know. The Dutch have always been mean to us, apart from the early days when they would support us against the Danes...damn Dutch...maybe I should change my avatar to Delaware at some point... Wink

I did know something about Delaware, but it's traditional to know nothing about it

For example:
"So your from Delaware? How...er interesting"

BTW don't be mean to the Belgians. They make the best beer in the whole world, invented chips, plastic and oil paint!

Yes, I forgot about Pommes Frites, or fries. They also make good comics, like Tintin. They're renowned for their chocolate, but that's just for snobs, real people like me usually don't like it too much. Above all, the greatest detective of all times comes from Belgium!

Sherlock Holmes was Belgian! Who'd 'a thunk it?

Do you mean Hercule Poirot?
