Megan King Superior Court Spoiler?— Pennsylvania’s Republican caucus have held their straw polls concerning this year’s state Superior Court race and the final tally is Christylee Peck, 185; Rebecca Warren, 167 and establishment pick Kate Harper, 130.
Oh wait, there is a fourth candidate, Megan King. She entered at the last minute. She got 13 votes. Ms. King is a Chester County deputy district attorney who had been considering a run for county Common Pleas Court.
What made her change her mind? Some are saying it was Ms. Harper’s very poor performance in the straw polls. She came in third and more than half her votes came from the Southeast Caucus. Some are saying that Val DiGiorgio, the state GOP chairman who had been Chesco boss until last month, whispered in Ms. King’s ear to do him a solid in the hope she will siphon off enough votes from one of the others to get Ms. Harper an endorsement when the official ones are made on Feb. 2.
Kate Harper, who represented the 61st Legislative District in the State House for 18 years until her defeat last fall by Liz Hanbidge, is a special-interest connected party loyalist.
The primary election is May 21.
Two seats are being contested for 10-year terms on the court which is the intermediate appellate court for most matters in the state.

Being able to link your skills and strengths to your specific success stories is critical to launching and conducting a productive job search.

Planned Parenthood Kicks Tax Dollars Back To Dems — Charlie Kirk made the observation last week that Planned Parenthood spent $30 million to help the Democrats win back the house and yet we still give them $500 million in taxpayer funding each year.
Explain how that’s right.
And that’s leaving aside the fact they sell the body parts of the babies they kill and use the power of government to stifle real journalism.

Fake Washington Post Upsets Fake News Washington Post — The Washington Post was obliged to tweet to the world Jan. 16 that newsprint being distributed on the streets of our Capital carrying its masthead and filled with anti-Trump stories was not the official product. For some strange reason many thought it was.
We are not going to say mass market journalism is dead as that is old news. That it is being exposed as the vampires they have long been, however, is a new thing.
It is time to put a stake through its heart.
