Good morning! I have a report from the ground here: This is a small state with no history of political activism or even heated campaigns. Last night, on a holiday weekend, there were over fifty O'Donnell supporters chanting in front of GOP headquarters. They were all registered Delaware Republicans. This is a closed primary and only motivated voters will show up at the polls on 9/14.

The bare knuckle, shock & awe tactics employed by the NRSC, the DE GOP and Mike Castle's many corporate backers, are backfiring big time. People who only two weeks ago might only have thought him a RINO, now see him as an evil RINO bastard who is in the pocket of his multinational backers. His career is over! If not on 9/14, then certainly on 11/2. That is a good thing.

Let's not forget the "We are simply stupid" tactics of the GOP. Here in the CT-2 we had a good Tea Party candidate who runs her own business and the GOP put up a former newscaster who introduces herself as "Hi, I'm Janet Peckinpaugh. I used to be a new anchor" to prospective voters. I kid you not.

I have nothing to do with the national GOP. We actually had a chance to put a slimy union backed Congresscritter out but they wanted "name recognition". MORONS!

Should we pray for a deluge of rain in Delaware on Sept. 14 to keep the not-too-fired-up GOP RINO lovers away from the polls? We know that O’Donnell supporters would crawl over broken glass to cast their vote.

Let me pick your brain a little bit more, please. Has the rank and file in Delaware woke to to what's going on in this particular race? I mean, we political junkies have been fired up for months over this race, but what about the average Republican working man or stay-at-home mom? Are they informed and fired up? Is there a real chance that Castle can go down like Murkowski did in AK?

Let’s hope his career is over 9/14.
We drove thru on the way to OC and saw many more O’Donnell signs than Castle.
Money is coming her way. Let’s get her in!

I am so glad to hear that, I was hoping so. The GOP need not get fat and sassy, they can be taken out too.

Heartening news, indeed! Nothing like a fired-up base.

We just got home (Baltimore area) from Ocean City and counted signs just for the heck of it. Traveling US rt. 113 and Del rt. 1.

61 - O’Donnell
16 - Castle

Most of the Castle signs were a little larger and there was one bill-board sized but, 61 to 16. Wow.
Also all but one of the Castle signs were in the northern most county, New Castle.

As an out-of-stater, it looks like O’Donnell has a lot of ground support.
