| I generally try not to harp on one topic over and over. But this one's worth repeating. Today, a story in the Oakland Tribune looking at AG candidate Rocky Delgadillo is titled "Delgadillo relishes the underdog role". Why not use the name "Rocky" in a story with the word "underdog" in the title? |

post a commentBecause no one cares enough about the Delgadillo campaign who is not in it?
Because he really isn't named Rocky but Rockard and editors don't like to be so easily conned?
On the first point, probably. On the second, yes, but his name is "Rocky" on the secretary of state's official candidate list.
