Everyone is talking about the need to change Washington, and that Barack Obama is the man to do so. He himself is change. He is someone new. I don't disagree with a word of that! Barack Obama is exactly what this country needs. But one thing I have to say is that we need to change state-by-state as well. This year Delaware will have its first competitive primary in well over a decade, and we will have a choice between more of the same, or something new. Our governor, Ruth Ann Minner, is just about as popular as George Bush is nationally as she is locally. While she is a Democrat, she has stood up for all the wrong things. Now, her Lt. Gov., John Carney is running to replace her as she is constrained by term limits. He just thought he was going to walk away with the nomination and the election. Well, he didn't account for the groundswell of support for a man few thought would even run. A few short months ago he was being pressured by the insiders not to run. Thankfully, against all odds Jack Markell has waged a campaign for all Delawareans, and all Americans as he joins Barack Obama in his message of Change!
