We're going to have Republican primary numbers out in Delaware and New Hampshire late tonight and based on the first day of polling it's clear both of these races are in single digit territory- there is not likely to be a run away winner in either.
Here are a couple key facts based on the numbers so far:
-53% of primary voters in Delaware think that Mike Castle is too liberal.

Castle completely incapable of defending his record, resorting to vintage, classic, retro attacks that were discussed back in 2008.
Expect enthusiastic turnout by conservatives, and a poor turnout by RINOs disgusted by the depths to which an elderly RINO will sink to keep a job in Washington, DC.
The poll will come out later tonight.
I wonder how many of those who think he’s too liberal still votes for him?
It can’t be a good thing for Castle in a two way race to have a plurality of the primary voters thinking you’re too liberal.
How about ax murderess?
It boggles the mind that almost half of primary voters do not think him too liberal.
Yeah, I’m not sure if having 53% of the people in Delaware thinking you’re liberal is a good thing or a bad thing.
I heard she murdered her mother.
- She’s a cutie.
Oh, and don’t let the fact that her mother is still alive distract you from the truth.
46% of Delaware Republicans don’t think he’s too liberal-
wow!
I'm just saying this as food for thought.
Right.
It’s stunning that only 53% believe he’s too liberal, but 53% voting for Christine or against him will win the election.
A hint might lie with the word “too”
liberal could be ok
too liberal would not be
53% say Castle is too liberal
unacceptably liberal
unacceptable
LOOKING GOOD FOR CHRISTINE!
The PPP Poll also shows Ovide Montagne closing in on Kelly Ayotte, only a 6 point lead.
Now Castle is one thing. The guy is basically a Dem, but for Red State/Demint/Tea Partiers to make the push for Ovide over Kelly Ayotte (who is backed by Palin and every Pro Life movement) is bone-headed.
She is up 15 points on Hodes and would wipe the floor clean with this commie.
Ovide Montagne is actually running behind Hodes. And I am not convinced he has the stuff needed to win. He got crushed in his only run for statewide office, and is a Mitt Romney backer.
I don’t understand the need to try to take out a solid conservative, mainstream, telegenic candidate like Kelly Ayotte — who would capture a diverse section of the vote (woman, conservatives, indies, young), and basically win in a cakewalk, allowing GOP resources/financials to be directed elsewhere (like Nevada, Califirnia, etc).
An Ovide campaign will be a nail biter, no matter. And be very costly for the NRSC, RNC, etc.
Dumb!
In a nutshell, O’Donnell is pro-liberty and Castle is the most liberal rino in Washington.
This old lawsuit that people are talking about here is known to the Delaware voters.
It’s Old News - discussed by PBS in 2008

And it’s only being talked about here, not getting traction.
Oh, no doubt.
Castle has more in common with the Dems than with Conservatives like Christine. He votes with the Dems more often than the Reps. He’s more liberal than Collins, more conservative than Snowe.
Christine will vote right, Castle will vote wrong. Isn’t that what it’s all about?
i heard she went to high school with Rush Limbaugh
If Castle wins the primary Conservatives need to work hard to secure his defeat in he general. If efforts to retake the party are to be successful, scum like Castle need to be driven out of office.
That’s what I’m thinking, how can you call someone “too liberal” and still vote for him. I guess it’s possible that you also consider the other candidate “too conservative”.
