Campillo pitched in the Mexican Pacific League this winter for the Culiacan Tomato Growers (I kid you not). Here are his lines from Mariner Minors, including two playoff games: Regular Season:13 G (13 GS), 5-4, 3.07 ERA in 76.1 IP, 55 H (8 HR), 30 R (26 ER), 67/18 K/BB, 4 WP Playoffs:2 G (2…

Its “Democratic” Party and we’re all federalists
Whacky Nation proves its name: They’re the Democrat party. I spent many years in the news media during the 70’s and 80’s …. and I never once wrote copy that read “Democratic Party.” It was always “Democrat Party.” Forget your new spin, liberals. There is nothing democratic about your party. There’s actually nothing democratic about…
The blog difference between Richardson and Edwards (its local)
Ken and I are fighting the good fight (seemingly about over now) over at Scoble’s blog about why our guy is just as good, or even better, than John Edwards regarding the blogs.

Right now, the only people who vote on what our local party does are PCOs, who are elected or appointed. This change, that would allow pretty much anyone who is interested…
Edwards not all that netrooty compared to Richardson
Over at Scoble’s blog, he gives too much credit to the netroots outreach of John Edwards: One thing I just saw over at TechMeme is that USA Presidential campaigns now are conversations? Really? So far only one Democratic candidate has met with bloggers who aren’t avowed supporters of his (and has had live chats on…
Richardson’s netroots coolness
I’ve been on the internet off an on all morning, watching the reaction to my guy announcing his candidacy. One of the neatest things is this post (not directly related to Richardson for President) but rather on the difference between campaign controlled “house parties” and less formal “meetups” (from Joho): But campaigns generally are not…
Other counties and their membership
You’d be surprised by how many county Democratic organizations don’t post their bylaws on the internet. Though here are some examples of Washington county organizations that don’t follow the strict PCO-only rule. Whatcom County: Section 1: Open Membership The Central Committee shall be open to all who support the party and wish to be known…
