The fact is that Charles Krauthammer is correct, and if I didn't agree with him, I would say so.
In that case the Democrat had an unearned advantage.
The solution now is to help O'Donnell win and forget about Castle ~ he was simply the wrong candidate at the wrong time. Could have happened to anybody, but it happened to him. Still, get over it!
Some day we'll talk about the values of RINOs, but in this case the designated hitter was not going to win anyway. These guys are useful ONLY if they really can win and are acceptable to the base. If they insult enough of the base you have no choice but to dump them.
