The head of communications for Delaware's state Republican Party announced Friday morning that he is leaving the state.

The announcement, by Tom Doheny, comes 11 days after conservative pundit Christine O'Donnell shocked the nation by upsetting the strong favorite of the state and national party, Rep. Mike Castle, in the First State's Republican primary.

"After a hard-fought campaign, I have decided to move on to a new opportunity working for the Republican Party of Pennsylvania,"

Matthew 8:25-6 And his disciples came to [him], and awoke him, saying, Lord, save us: we perish.

26 And he saith unto them, Why are ye fearful, O ye of little faith? Then he arose, and rebuked the winds and the sea; and there was a great calm.

Well, there’s one positive conclusion to be drawn from all this.

Tom Doheny must think that Christine O’Donnell has a good chance of winning and brooming out the political hacks, or he wouldn’t be running for cover like that.

Next step: Broom him out of Pennsylvania.

P.S. “After a hard-fought campaign” can only refer to those slimy lies and smear attacks on O’Donnell. Presumably he had a part in that.

>>>I thought it was illegal to transport trash across state lines without a permit...<<<

From what I understand, they don’t even gives permits for that now. Not even sure he is from here - we have a law that trash generated on a farm can be incinerated on that farm but not transferred out of state (but they do do it with chicken manure...)

Would you believe they are still passing out Castle signs, stickers, buttons, etc. - and only reluctantly handling sign requests for the actual primary winners. Staff being polite, but through gritted teeth they handle answering.

Maybe we need to give Christine a fresh new witches broom to make a clean sweep there before she goes to Washington. /S

"PA should punt him all the way to CT."

Or to Massachusetts or Maine. He'd fit okay in either state.

I wonder if there is a tie to why Karl Rove is so pissed off?

Seeing the look on his face the following day on Fox, seems to me he REALLY got many ear-fulls over it.

Karl may have gotten too wrapped up in his ‘white-boards’ and overlooked that the numbers on there are real people with strong feelings about things.

Seems he is trying to mellow out his position as best he can and still save face...

He tried to sway the Tea Party position towards Castle and we wanted no part of it!
