Musings From The Delaware Farm!!! We Grow Corn and Soybeans and Bidens!!! And Pumpkins!!! I was born in NYC; this is all new to me here!!!
Proud to Present My First Diary As as a Kossack (Been Lurking Too Long):
I know that some of us stayed up late the other night, waiting for the news. Some of us were too tired and had to go to sleep. Anxiously checking my cell phone for the message, nothing appeared by 1:00am, so I took to the bed to await my husband who was working his second job, home at 2:30am and I was already asleep when he silently climbed in.
Our Gannett News-Journal (local slang News-Urinal)(used to be locally owned) paper, which has a 12:00am production deadline, for days has been filled with stories of the news people camped out in front of Biden's home, waiting for the "nugget". Well, the "nugget" happened when the Secret Service arrived by SUV in the middle of the night with DE State Police helicopters hovering overhead, and then the media knew he was The One. Leak!!!!
The Morning Headlines were not as good as XXXdiary when he spoke the truth. But I want to tell you personally as a Delawarean (we are not Delawarians), that Joe Biden is the kind of guy who goes to grocery stores (Acme/Albertsons) and campaigns alone for downticket guys -- that would be state representatives, and he shook my hand as I went in to buy diapers on sale for my twin boys some years ago. (They are now 21 -- different story)
So take it from a local why you were not the first to be contacted. Is the media smarter than the rest of us? I don't think so. We must power on. But here is my real story:
WE ARE DEMOCRATS, not Republicans. Let's go..... vamanos ...
Love, DelDem2 (and we know who is is the overlord!)
PS: I'll be going to the Delaware Watch Party at Joe's Crab Shack on the Wilmington Riverfront on Thursday Night to get crab dinner and see the acceptance speech on the TeeVee with my 21 yr old son who I am bringing up in the good old Democratic Way. GOBAMA!
