Republican Senate candidate fires new salvo in the next battle of Tea Party versus ‘RINO’
The Daily Caller ^ | 12:09 AM 07/23/2010 | Kyle Peterson

“Mike Castle’s voting record proves beyond a reasonable doubt that he is for special interests, against the free market, anti-Second Amendment, pro-abortion and he’s even for sanctuary cities. It’s a preposterous record,” O’Donnell said. “Calling himself a Republican is borderline schizophrenic, confused about his own political identity.”

National Journal’s 2009 rankings placed Castle as the least conservative Republican in the House of Representatives.

Castle on RKBA

Voted NO on prohibiting product misuse lawsuits on gun manufacturers. (Oct 2005)

Voted NO on prohibiting suing gunmakers & sellers for gun misuse. (Apr 2003)

Voted NO on decreasing gun waiting period from 3 days to 1. (Jun 1999)

I wonder how much help this turkey is getting from the RNC.

With all these good looking Conservative women popping up everywhere how will the left ever find the time to smear and hate all of them?

Castle is a super RINO. He was, along with Indiana’s Kirk, one of the 8 republicans who voted in FAVOR of the cap and tax bill. This is a clown who apparently couldn’t find a space in the democrat party.

Kirk's from Illinois, which I'm sure makes the people of Indiana heave a huge sigh of relief.

I imagine she will be soon. Although she may not be a mama.

“... Castle’s campaign had approximately $2.6 million in cash at the end of June, according to FEC data — dwarfing the fundraising efforts of his competitors ...”

Castle is a bought tool of special interests. There is absolutely no excuse for GOP to support this corrupt hack, unless of course, GOP Leadership is also a bought tool of special interest out to protecting corruption in Washington DC.

Take note friends, which way the wind is blowing.

Calling Sarah Palin - Delaware's 'Mama Grizzly' needs your support!

She's cute as a speckled pup - Smart as a whip - and Conservative to the core!

Pro-Life - Pro-Small Business - Pro-Second Amendment - Pro-States Rights - Pro-Freedom - Pro-Border Defense - +,+,+!

Anti-High Taxes - Anti-Big Government - Anti-ObamaCare - +,+,+!

We've got to call loud and clear (Alaska is WAY up there) Sarah, Christine needs you!

Each election, Delaware’s Michael Castle has had to spend more and more money for each percent of the voters he reaches.

* 2000 $10,075 for each percent
* 2002 $11,066
* 2004 $14,380
* 2006 $22,272
* 2008 $24,272
* 2010 $38,723 for each percent so far to get the 47% favorable (with 4 months to go)

As for the Republican party - Oh, boy....
Their official position is that Castle’s majority of the 350 Convention votes (Heavily special interest driven) means that there are no other candidates in their eyes...

Yep, that’s what I was told when I called them.

Primary be-damned... They won’t even acknowledge another candidate UNLESS we force them to in the Sept. 14th Primary.

This must be the “big tent” theory at work.
