I wonder if things go well early on the East Coast like maybe Christine O’Donnell winning will help Huffman and other Repubs on the West Coast? I hope so.
I think a lot of these are vote by mail states with early voting.
It will be interesting. Just back on the 24th the Democrats were leading in vote returns. I think Christine is much closer than it appears. The stats for OR and DE are very close. Similar levels of Tea Party support, opposition to Obamacare, and Presidential disapproval. Christine is closing the deal but in the end it will come down to turnout. The only thing she has against her is the Democrat hate. If that translates into more Democrats at the polls then that is bad for her. However I don’t think Democrats think she can win and in a midterm that might leave them staying home, the same goes to disgruntled Republicans. Sure they might not like Christine but if you are real conservative are you going to get out of bed on a rainy Nov morning and go vote for an Obama supporter for Senate? I just don’t see it. I’d like to see a poll showing Christine in single digits. That would be great and make me feel a lot better. However most of the polls have samples favorable to Democrats. Rasmussen and the most recent university poll which was partially conducted by Survey USA have the most balanced samples. If they are right I think provided things go her way tomorrow and Monday then I expect her to narrowly defeat Coons. She’s had a good week this week. She has been running ads driving up Coons negatives and she has increased her positives. I wish she’d have started a little sooner with the negative ads but I’m just happy she is hitting Coons and he is clearly trying to hide out till election day. The Democrats are not behaving like they have a sure win. They are behaving like they are very afraid she will win.
