Dunne, Donovan Duck Defeat
by Vermonter under MINE |Bad headline, I know…
But, hey, Matt Dunne and T.J. Donovan both pulled off impressive victories in yesterday’s primaries.
And, since I think it’s clear they were favored by the 37 netroots activists in Vermont, I say their victories are our victories.
Or maybe not. But, I’d think one could argue that P.B.’s focus on both candidates helped them out a bit.

Winners: Matt Dunne, Matt’s kid, Shay Totten, Scudder Parker, Peter Welch
In other election news, Bernie trounced Craig Hill (despite Hill’s last-ditch campaign tactic of calling into the Randi Rhodes show this week. Big upset, there).
And it’s official: McMansion Country is Tarrant Country. The density of ugly Tarrant signs (even when softened by T.J. Donovan signs) on Spear St. can not be denied.
And Baruth claims all of this is a victory for the “devious Odum.” I have no idea what this means.
Oh yeah, and James Kochalka reminds us what’s really important (h/t to Simmon)…

What interests me peripherally about this election is how the Freeps reporters seem to be going out of their way to mischaracterize the Lite Gov primary as some kind of a squeaker. Dunne “edged” Tracy. He “barely” won. It was a seriously large margin.
It’s…weird.
