Castle sucks, but a vote for O'Donnell is an implicit vote for a self-admitted marxist in the general. Christine O'Donnell is not Marco Rubio or Joe Miller. Who are these weak candidates winning in purple or blue states? We're sweating bullets with Angle in Nevada of all places against the biggest dirtbag in the Senate. If you thought conservative groups have been unfair to O'Donnell and she wins tuesday night, the DSCC is going to turn on her like the Eye of Mordor. I want them to have to worry about which seats to try and defend, while we eviscerate them in the voting booth.
Maybe you would rather go down with her than win with Castle - fine, but I say screw moral victories and secure as many R's in Senate seats as possible. Then, we kick their asses again in 2012, when even more of these socialist automatons are on the ballot.
Let’s just get O’Donnell in the general election for Delaware and then we will work to have her win. She can’t win if she doesn’t get on the ticket. Why settle for less when we can do better. Sure it won’t be easy to win the prize but it is worth the try....we just have to work hard to have her win. Castle might not win the general either because conservatives may not have the excitement of voting for him. I think it is a good risk to have O’Donnell win the primary!
Something to think about for sure. Are we letting the Perfect be the enemy of the Good (enough for now?), as we often do here? Could this possibly the move that allows us to snatch Defeat from the jaws of Victory? Who knows, I hope sober heads prevail, either way.
That compromise you suggest has screwed us for decades now. NO dice,,,
The GOP establishment needs to learn,,, TEA isnt repub,, it’s conservative. They have to make us happy now,, no more serving up the normal crap they do with a smirk, knowing we will fold. The old game is over.
Yeah, that works well. Worked with Bob Dole! Worked with John McCain! Worked well with Arlen Specter instead of Toomey. Yeah, this will work this time. Count me in.
ANd if the marxist defeats her,, fine. We can attack em again and again. If the rino gets in, we live with them for 30 years,,,
Isn’t he on board for Cap & Tax and all the other nonsense? Why not just vote for the Dem in the race?
Talk to the hand!
Rinos are screwy.All that needs to be said.
NO
MORE
RINOS
The electability argument is bs.
Both the conservatives and the moderates are pissed about the economy and won’t vote for the Democrat.
The conservatives might stay home if it’s a choice between 2 Democrats.
The moderates want to stop the Democrats almost as much as the Conservatives do. Obamas approvals are falling everywhere. They might not agree with some of what she’s saying, but they want to stop the dems. These tea party people, they’re the ones who don’t always vote, and the reason they don’t vote is there’s no reason to. Christine provides the new voter, the occasional voter a good reason to vote. The turnout by Conservatives just wouldn’t be anywhere near as good with Castle as with Christine.
1) moderates who want to stop Democrats will vote R.
2) conservatives won’t show for Castle
Where’s the electability argument?
Who do you want to run against the Marxist- a halfway Marxist, a guy that voted to impeach Bush? No way.
O’Donnell is actually opposed to Marxism and will call him what he is.
Forget what you learned in Republicanism 101. This is a new day.
You are correct, sir! The DSCC won't turn on Castle. And why is that? Because they like him just as much as Coons. And maybe even more.
No thanks! Go, O'Donnell!!!
Um... obviously you have not been paying attention in class...(looks around for the hand puppets...)
You dont get it. We would rather pummel a RINO into the ground and put the fear of God into him if he wins because his votes are indistinguishable to the right.
So WAKE THE HELL UP! and understand what is trying to be done!
Tell me what possible return we get from a Sen. Castle? This is not a 70%er like Scott Brown. This is a 28% who will be a disaster for the party, potentially even switching parties. Why bother?
Sorry but the moderates blew it. We’re tired of the “lesser of two evils” meaning we get more of the same BS. Castle is toast. Live with it.
There is a major purge of politics coming in November. It will be a day long remembered by both sides. The left and the moderate are going to hate it as they will lose their power for a very, very long time if not for good.
We need people in office that know that they are there to serve us, not the other way around. Our leaders are NOT our masters. People like Castle seem to have forgotten this. People like Castle need to go away.
Actually, O'Donnell's losing tomorrow might be the easiest way for her to win in November. She can run 3rd party. And with the Liberal voters agonizing between Castle and Coons, splitting their votes, she could walk away with it.
I don’t care anymore.
The RINOs need to get the message that we’re not going to put up with their crap - period.
I would rather be stabbed in the chest by a Dem than in the back by a RINO. NO MORE RINOS.
2 Reasons why Christine is more electable
1) moderates who want to stop Democrats will vote R.
2) conservatives wont show up big for Castle
