Newsmax ^ | Tuesday, 28 Sep 2010 07:04 PM | Newsmax

Posted on 09/29/2010 8:30:46 AM PDT by DelaWhere

Sen. Tom Coburn tells Newsmax that Delaware Republican Senate nominee Christine O’Donnell would “bring a lot to the table” to combat the “stupidity that goes on in Washington.”.......

“I think she’ll bring a lot to the table in terms of the common sense, everyday thinking of Americans about the stupidity that goes on in Washington.

She can't beat Castle... She can't raise money... She can't beat Coons...

Wrong... Wrong... Wrong too - just watch...

Common sense for the Senate - what a novel idea...

Not so sure.

Johnson (WI) and Raese (WV) have moved into play all the while O’Donnell’s numbers have stalled.

I’m writing off DE and pushing for WV and WI in its stead.

How defeatist of you.
I’m pushing for all 3.
And another 10.
Try it, it’s not too difficult.

>>>I’m writing off DE <<<

Obviously, you don’t know Christine.
She’s not a quitter, she is just as strongly for the
same things today as she was back in 2006, 2008 -
doesn’t hold up a moist finger to gauge wind direction.

Added note:

“Gov. Tim Pawlenty (R-Minn.) appeared this morning on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe,” where he remained coy about his decision to run for president in 2012 but stuck to his guns in his support for Delaware GOP Senate candidate Christine O’Donnell.”

Not arguing against the two you named. But COD has moved the numbers 2% in two weeks, with 5 weeks to go. It ain’t over till the pretty lady in Delaware sings.

My realistic prediction is having these final numbers:

Governors:

GOP 32 (by Paladino pulling off NY, Ehrlich in MD, and wins in the “expected” races)
Dem 28

Senate

GOP 50
Dem/I 50

Unsure how Lieberman will go...but with Biden as tiebreaker and Lieberman holding w/Dems, still a technical Dem majority. I do predict Reid and Feingold go down.

House

GOP 240
Dem 194

Then she's got a very big job ahead of her.

Isn't it just marvelous how all of these establishment Republican men step forth to “anoint” such a “risky candidate like O'Donnell, who simply cannot be elected” (after Sarah-barracuda charges forth without “testing the winds of political to her own 'electability'?”)

Senate

GOP 50
Dem/I 50 ???

Why would you want to write off Christine?
Just think how sweet it would be with a real CONSERVATIVE from Delaware being the 51st!!!

Ummm, I donno about Ehrlich’s chances... MD is much more liberal than DE.

Ehrlich has a tough ride, but he’s only 3 pts down (5 if you average in the outlier WaPo poll), Christine is down FIFTEEN.

I’d LOVE to see her surge and win, and see Coons have to concede, but I just don’t see it happening.

Having difficulty with those numbers and that math...

Rasmussen has -9 with write in for Castle (who would get 5)

Since everyone seems to see Castle taking more votes from Coons than Christine, you just don’t come up with 15%.

I will be surprised if Castle decides to humiliate himself even more with a write-in (tomorrow is the deadline).

Also, remember Christine was polling down 9 just before primary that she won by 6... (Hmmm is that the 15%?)

Momentum and interest is definitely for Christine and the more people are learning about Coons, the less they like him.

Check out: http://www.thebeardedmarxist.com

“Coons pledges his vote to Harry Reid in lameduck session”
“Coons: I Will Bring Yale Divinity School Values to Senate” (Marxist!)
“I will support Obama’s objectives”
or
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2597049/posts

Read up on that and tell me where the battle-lines should be drawn. Tell me we should fold up our tents and just accept the overthrow of this Nation?

Not me and not many I know.

I guess I prefer somebody willing to reach way down and find a pair and push for all three.

LOL, Yep... but hopefully instead of being a lone vote, we will have more successes so she is ‘One More Vote’ for sanity.
