It sounds like entrenched politicians tend to stay entrenched in DE, at least until this latest primary where a fixture like Castle got booted. I realize it wasn’t an open primary but it sounds like DE is not immune to what’s happening in the other 56, I mean 49.
These dims all of a sudden deciding not to debate is strange. I’m guessing their internals are showing a precarious lead and the earlier debates haven’t been at all helpful. Coons may be one of the most uninspiring candidates I’ve ever seen run for anything at anytime, anywhere. I think the more the electorate sees and hears Coons the less likely they’ll be to go out and pull the lever for him. I just can’t believe turnout is going to be good for the D’s.
Finally, does DuPont carry enough weight up there for his endorsement to mean anything for the less motivated indies and pubbies?
Thanks for your response. I trust you know I did my best.
First, as to the sudden disappearance of the Dems...maybe you got something. Like you said, Coons is inspiring nobody, a big zero, totally non-charismatic blotto burger. Whereas COD has a bright smile and people are naturally drawn to her. The comparison between the two is just so obvious.
As for John Carney, serious...I have YET to see the man, either in any public event, or even in a TV ad. They have some, but there's no Carney in them. Another nothing burger whereas Glen Urquhart is just the nicest fellow, very personable.
This is not to say that COD or Urquhart are hiding out in any form or fashion.
It's just odd.
And so before my nap, a look at my political album, you should smile
Below, in 2005, ME, granddaughter....and Christine O'Donnell! Yes I can say I knew her when...
Below, COD with grandaughter from this past August.
Below, just for grins, granddaughter and Glen Urquhart! Yes that's former VA Senator Allen holding granddaughter
Finally, for giggles and grins...ME....with Mike Castle! Well hell no I'm not proud of it but once upon a time I really tried. The man kept slapping me in the face so now he's outta there.!
Sorry....as for the DuPont endorsement, it sure won’t hurt.
I think the DuPont endorsement helps soothe angry Del GOP voters as much as anything.
The fine, fine Mike Castle STILL has not endorsed COD, this after all the years we supported him as he constantly slapped us in the face.
