Ah, yes, what a damn shame it was that paragon of Conservative virtue, Mike Castle, wasn’t coronated for his Senate seat.
Castle, for once in his useless life, would have actually helped by giving the GOP a 50th Senator. That's all he had to do: just sit there.
O'Donnell was a guaranteed loss - she was not only talked very conservatively (and there are many like her out there who like to talk conservatively), but she had no record of doing anything - a completely empty resume. DE might actually have voted in a Tea Party year for a conservative - but only for someone they knew as a woman of concrete action.
She was a complete waste of time and money from the beginning.
