If Castle is a RINO, there may be a good reason for it. Delaware is a deep blue State and we should count ourselves very lucky to get a Republican at all. Running a Jim DeMint clone in every State is foolhardy.

Nice strawman. Nobody is looking at Castle and thinking "he's not a Jim DeMint clone". People looking seriously at Mike Castle recognize that he is not our ally, and is in fact our enemy: he is essentially a Democrat that will do everything he can to derail conservatives. The few votes he tosses our way are far outweighed by the damage he will do within the Republican party.

Massachusetts:

Barack Obama 62%
John McCain 36%

...And yet Scott Brown won just a year later. While I grant you that Brown is more liberal than O’Donnell obviously (especially on many social issues), he campaigned as a candidate decidedly more conservative than Castle.

Further, Brown ran as the 41st vote against Obamacare; now that Obamacare is even more unpopular than it was then, why is Castle saying that he won’t vote in favor of repealing it if he’s Senator?
