I wonder how many times when a conservative candidate lost to a “moderate” (read: RINO) in a primary they were told “get behind the candidate” when compared to the opposite.

You don’t like O’Donnell, that’s fine but the campaign you’re waging around here bashing her does nothing to promote the republicans you seem to feel so strongly should win. Maybe you should think about that?

those conservative chicken farmers

.... those splendid folk whose districts sent and re-sent Biden to DC simply couldn't be all that conservative, now could they? Let's see how they turn out for O'Donnell. If they do, I shall start my apology tour immediately and eat crow-flavored chicken.

Someone ought to tell Hannity that Rove has even less High School than he does. If he doesn't believe you, tell him to ask his other girlfriend, The Dick Morris. He would never steer Hannity wrong.

You know Hannity ain't right. On the bright side he does vote Republican, I think; unlike BOR, who would not vote for Jesus on the Republican ticket if Satan were the Democrat.

I didn’t see any credible polls on her beating Castle either-but she did.

Could you have put the headlines any bolder?

Yes, I could have, although Font #7 seemed sufficient.

I saw her on Hannity last night and was quite impressed

I watched it as well. She did great! She's quite personable, and covered alot of topics. It will be wonderful if she can pull this out.

I think the race is closer than this poll suggests.

[...]those splendid folk whose districts sent and re-sent Biden to DC [...]

Though Christine O'Donnell lied about winning or even tying in Kent County in 2008 (she lost 43%-57%), she actually came close in Sussex County. She almost tied Joe Biden in that county--county of chicken houses--and, rounding off to whole-number percentages, she did.

No, not a win like she'd claimed, but pretty close...close enough to keep from disparaging Sussex County as the reason for having Joe Biden for so long.

And it was Sussex County that voted for her nearly 2:1 over Mike Castle.

It's not the chicken-house part of the state that is liberal. New Castle County is.

I can well understand why no one in Delaware would now admit to having voted for Joe Biden, even the chickens of Sussex County.

The best of cluck to all of you splendid folks in Delaware. Get out and vote for O'Donnell.

You seem to be doing it in stealth mode. I'm only seeing you working against O'Donnell.

If you think this is the smartest place to spend my time campaigning against Chris Coons, I'm speechless.

I generally focus on what direction the country will be moving by the politician's performance of their duties if elected.

Certainly one approach. The old "lie, cheat, and steal, as long as you're on my side" view is quite common. I'd just rather send the message that they'll get more support if they're honest.

Biggest loser in that race next to the people there is Castle.
