O’Donnell Outpaces Coons in Fund-raising (2 to 1)
The Wall Street Journal/Washington Wire ^ | October 15, 2010 | Brody Mullins

Christine O’Donnell, Delaware’s Republican Senate candidate, surprised her Democratic opponent, Chris Coons, by raising more than twice as much money in the three months ending Sept. 30, according to the campaigns.

O’Donnell also has twice as much money in the bank for the final stretch of the campaign.

O’Donnell’s campaign and Federal Election Commission records show that the Republican raised $3.9 million in July, August and September; Coons reported raising $1.5 million.

She also ended the quarter with a bigger bank balance — $2.6 million – compared with Coons’s $1.3 million, fund-raising reports show. O’Donnell was the upset winner of a Republican primary in August, beating Republican Rep. Michael Castle, who was considered a shoo-in for the Senate seat formerly held by Vice President Joe Biden.

Biden and President Barack Obama traveled to Wilmington, Del., today for a fund-raiser for Coons.

OD win in DE along with miller in Alaska and a Crist destruction in Florida is all I really want. If the aforementioned happens I wouldn’t really care who controls the house and senate for the next two years. As long as the Rethugs have enough power to gridlock. Oh yea, add Boxer loss to that “Must” list

Be careful about that poll. Very little “news” surrounding that “polling firm”. It’s very possible that “poll” was just made up.

Libs are eating their own hearts knowing that a woman who made governor, raised a family, built a business, and is turning their political world upside down knows how to use shotgun with casual ease to boot!

On my trip to and from church this morning, I noticed where some of the campaign money is going - nice, big new signage. All of the major intersections. The exposure is great!

(only Coons sign I saw/noticed was a small lawn sign on the UD campus)

My election night celebration begins when the DE results are in and Christine is elected. That will be the beginning of the landslide/tsunami.
