Afternoon ALL, RB....

Went to the Sussex County Republican Women’s Club luncheon today. Started going again after abstaining for my anger over McCain. Now I’m mad about Mike Castle, Delaware’s RINO, now going after Joe Biden’s senate seat. Castle is Delaware’s only Rep in the House, Del being one of the few states with more senators than representative. Castle recently betrayed us by voting for that awful Cap and Tax bill even though that bill would not benefit any Delawarians, even the dopes up in Wilmington who don’t know any better. Castle knows better though.

Anyway, I go to the luncheon with an attitude. I am damn tired of having rubber chicken with paste gravy, a quick meeting, news on the fundraisers, buy an ad and donate for the silent auction. Beyond that, shut up and do what the Delaware Republican party, including the RINOS upstate, tell you to do...you bunch a cackling hens.

So I decide I am gonna make a motion that the group’s corresponding secretary write a letter, on SCRWC letterhead, to Mike Castle. We inform the man that we will NOT be contributing to his upcoming campaign in his bid to beat Beau Biden...yes ole Joe’s son. Castle thinks the pubs in Delaware will bow down as he comes to save the day so screw us, who don’t want CAP AND TAX, Castle will do as Castle wants.

So I figger, let us do the Scuzzyfuzzy thing and the hell with it. What’s the difference between Castle and Beau Biden? Sure, one’s a Dem and one’s a Pub but both vote FOR Cap and Trade...hey at least the Dem doesn’t pretend to be a republican.

I also figger, so it’s now or never. Because while such a letter signed by Pat Fish or Jane Doe or Linda Smith might not mean much...a letter signed by the mighty and very well-respected SUSSEX COUNTY REPUBLICAN WOMEN’S CLUB would make him sit up and take notice. Drop off a PR release to a few local yokel newspapers, one of which I just happen to be on the reader board, the SUSSEX COUNTIAN...heh. A release to the effect, I can see it in my mind now....LOCAL REPUBLICAN WOMEN’S CLUB TELLS REP MIKE CASTLE THEY WILL NOT SUPPORT HIM IN BID TO TAKE BEAU BIDEN’S SEAT.

It could, if one wants to be dramatic, derail his entire campaign.

So I recruit a couple of people to hear me out...let’s say I make a motion that our secretary send just such a letter, we take a vote on it, the vote passes, and boom....the letter is sent.

Only one of my compadres goes to the front and she complains about Mike Castle and folks, Mike Castle has spies everywhere. The things I could tell y’all. Sure enough we got blue-haired ladies jumping up and down and shouting...WE SURE DON’T WANT BEAU BIDEN....and other ladies yelling cause Mike Castle...he’s got spies everywhere.

We end this with notice that I intend to make this happen. I will email every member of that organization as I do have all email addys. I will use my power of the written word, I will make my case, I will research the bylaws to know the rules, to shut down those who would shout us down.

I had a gang of women around me after that meeting.

I AM going to win this, folks. Like the song says...”we will not be degraded”.

If we don’t do it this year, when Obamer’s got the country ready to vote pubbies straight down the line, REAL pubbies, then give it up and consign yourself to enslavement of the moderate.

It’s my story and I’m sticking to it.
