10:40 a.m.: Interesting thing about the county race for D.A. The Republicans are running County Councilman Jack Whelan. He likely will oppose Democrat Kendall Brown in the fall. Both are running unopposed.
First, it's nice to see the Dems actually put up a candidate in the D.A. race. They haven't done that in awhile.
Second, about that Whelan run. It's nothing about him. He's got the credentials for the job. It's the town.
For years the D.A.'s job has been the province of Drexel Hill and Upper Darby GOP boss John McNichol. Mike Green, Pat Meehan, Bill Ryan all where Drexel Hill guys.
When I asked county GOP Chairman Andy Reilly about this the other night on our 'Live From the Newsroom' show, he reminded me that his dad was a Republican D.A., and he was from Middletown.
