Coons' campaign announced Thursday that Obama and Vice President Joe Biden will visit Wilmington next Friday morning and appear at a fundraiser at the Grand Opera House.

Methinks Coonsie should have consulted with Martha Coakley before calling Zero.
LOL, I just got it. I blew my milk out my nose!
“cutesy” ????? That’s how she looks. She’s cute. Very pretty actually. If ya got it, flaunt it, I always say.
As I remember seeing either on the Little Rascles or Our Gang.
“Who dat up dere sayin’ who dat down dere”?
EVERYWHERE!!!

Rossi’s up by 1 in latest poll. Washington is no “gimme” state.
And, I profoundly disagree w/ theories that Obama wants to campaign in an “easy” state so that he can do a victory dance. That counters all political logic, esp in an election cycle in which so many critical senate and house Dem seats are in jeopardy. Note where they’re sending Michelle - to all of the senate races in which incumbent dems are losing or are in actual jeopardy. Biden has already been to Del once (since COD won Repub primary) for the Bearded Marxist. They wouldn’t waste Obama’s time in a purely “safe” seat. Otherwise, he’d be stumping for Schumer in NY! They must have some internal polling showing Coons being vulernable or COD starting to gain. Don’t forget, COD hampered by election timing. Delaware primary was very late in season (Sept), leaving not much time to formulate a general election campaign - esp when she’s a novice with no $ (at the time) or campaign structure. She had to raise $ - which she did quite well and quite quickly - develop a campaign structure/team, connect locally w/ Del voters (esp fractured Repubs), and develop marketing strategies (already direct mail and now 2 TV ads). Polls have all been before significant marketing and after intense, Palin-esque, personal destruction operations by Dems, estab Repubs (it pains me to say) and lib MSM.
COD might be doing better than we’ve been let on. If indeed, she was down double digits, and such a “joke” of a candidate that she stood absolutely no chance of winning, why would any of the established political organizations waste time/$/political prestige on sending the President and VP into the fray. They could just sit back in D.C. and put Coons’ nameplate on his office door.
I still believe that COD will shock the world come late 11/2!!!
That headline is just so wrong.....
But priceless!
Actually I don't think that is true, he is originally from PA. But your right it is strange, but he probably can't hurt Coons much.
We have plenty of coons in Delaware. You can usually see them on the shoulder of the road. They’re about three inches tall.
With 57 states to campaign in, there is no way they would waste their time on a race they are confident of winning.
The idea that they are doing it so they can say “see we won one” is frankly ridiculous.
“Rossi’s up by 1 in latest poll. Washington is no “gimme” state.”
A correction - Rossi up by SIX in WA state. :-) (Whoo Hoo!!!)

Yes, but the fact he’s even in Washington means that the Democrat strategy has gone seriously awry. States like Washington are what I would call Tier 2 states that are the last firewall to Republican control of the Senate.
States like DE, NY (Gillibrand) and CT are Tier 3 states where you get a slight Republican majority in the Senate 52-54 seats. That’s the Armageddon scenario when the only seats that are safe are like in Oregon, Vermont, Hawaii and NY (Schumer) — seats that would never go Republican with the entrenched Republican in it right now.
The Democrat strategy seems to be to shore up shaky seats (like DE) before going in and putting out fires and trying to win the battleground states. They’re doing it with Congressional funds and will be doing it with the Senate, too. I hope it backfires, but Zero is relatively popular in DE.
I’ll have some crackers with that.
Obama lives to campaign. He is going to Delaware because his handlers think he can’t lose Delaware by going there. But his handlers could be wrong.
Good explanation. But, if COD is down 15-19 pts, what “fire” is there to “put out”? I still think , if that’s a gimme for the dems, Barry and Bite-me stay in DC chowing on kobe beef and arugula. There’s gotta be a little fire behind the smoke!
Wow!!! Mom in stinky tennis shoes!! Thanks!!!
I’m certain Coons is his own kind, so of course he would campaign for Coons.
