Christine O’Donnell, Conservative Republican from Delaware
RedState ^ | 5/25/10 | Bryan McCarthy

Posted on 05/25/2010 4:48:51 PM PDT by outofstyle

In 2008 Joe Biden won two elections; he was elected Vice President and he was also re elected to the U.S. Senate from Delaware. Opposing him in that election was conservative Republican Christine O’Donnell. It is both an obstacle and an opportunity for Ms. O’Donnell that many of those who voted for her in 2008 still do not know her. The votes she garnered then were mainly from those who were not buying the “hope & change” scam being peddled by Obama and Biden. At that time, not many voters had woken up to the fact that liberal Republicans were part of the problem. In political terms 2008 is light years behind us. The radical leftist transition that has occurred in this country as a result of the recent Democrat lock on power would not have been possible without the active cooperation, over many years, of career liberal politicians from both parties.

One of the most liberal Republicans in congress has been Rep. Mike Castle from Delaware. He has been a career politician since before Ms. O’Donnell was born. He voted for Nancy Pelosi’s cap and tax energy scheme and also voted for the job-killing minimum wage hike. He voted to increase the national debt and has consistently supported Washington’s reckless spending. Accordingly, he has voted for virtually every tax bill that has crossed his desk including the “death tax.” Mr. Castle is anti life. He has voted to subject children to out-of-state abortions without consent of parents, has voted to use U.S. funds to support Planned Parenthood at home and abroad, has supported human cloning, and sponsored the bill to destroy, exploit and experiment on unborn children. He voted with the Democrats for the federal bailouts and the government takeovers of private industry. Although he did ultimately oppose it, he remained undecided about Obama care until four days before the vote, and he has indicated that he would not work to repeal it.

Mike Castle is quite fond of entitlements. In fact, he now considers himself entitled to the Republican nomination for the U.S. Senate. He has only two problems in this regard. Problem number one is an army of newly minted registered republican activists who have had enough of Mike Castle’s betrayals. Problem number two is a September, 14 Senate primary and Christine O’Donnell.

In contrast to Mike Castle, Christine O’Donnell is an unapologetic pro life conservative. She is on the right side of every issue that matters. She supports smaller government and lower taxes and the active roll back of recent socialist advances. She is opposed to an activist judiciary. She believes terrorism is an act of war and not a civil crime, and she believes in meaningful school choice. As U.S. Senator from Delaware, Christine O’Donnell would be a courageous conservative leader. She deserves the support of Delaware conservatives and the endorsement of leading national conservatives.

Believe me, we in Delaware are waiting for that. And by the way, Jim DeMint, are you paying attention? Mike Castle is as liberal as they get.

What’s it looking like for her; any poll numbers? Can you feel the pulse of folks there in Delaware?

As you know Delaware is a small state. In an off year primary like this, it will not take many actual votes to win. Polls, if they exist for this race, will not have much meaning. Castle has got money and the corrupt GOP machine behind him. Christine has got the energy and the commitment going for her. I think she can turn out the votes for an election like this. Anything that anyone can do to raise the profile of this race would be really appreciated.

Not yet. But perhaps you could have a word with “your girl.” Her endorsement will be like lighting the afterburners for this campaign.

Bring in Sarah Palin. That will raise the profile of the race; gurarnteed.

You said: Castle has got money and the corrupt GOP machine behind him. This year, to be the establishment candidate has been the kiss of death.

It has been. However, if you read the comments at the bottom of the article, you will see that allot of old smokey back room GOP types have apparently learned to use a computer.

You are correct though, Christine needs a high profile endorsement in order to get this race on the national radar screen. When that happens, I believe the momentum will take her over the line on September 14. After she beats Castle she will be the biggest political story of the fall and she will chew up her corrupt Democratic opponent in November.

Sarah needs to get behind her. I pray she does.
