Coons Camp Expresses Turnout Worries
The Wall Street Journal ^ | 11-2-2010 | Neil King Jr

Posted on 11/02/2010 11:23:29 AM PDT by tennmountainman

Most polls have predicted that the closely watched Delaware Senate race between Democrat Chris Coons and Republican tea-party favorite Christine O’Donnell was going to be anything but close. One poll last week had Mr. Coons up by 10 points, while all the others gave him a far more comfortable margin.

But Democrats in Delaware remain skittish.

In a noon email alert to supporters, Coons campaign manager Christy Gleason said close monitoring of voter turnout in the state’s 41 representative districts showed “lower turnout in New Castle and Kent counties than we’re comfortable with.”

Oh, I will definitely switch over to MSNBC to watch the depression set in. Those people are evil. Lord please be with your people today. Above all may your will be done. You know what is best for us. We did not believe in 2008 that the election of Obama was good for America.

But I believe that it has woken up many Americans and for that I am thankful.

This would be the even sweeter than kicking Dingy Harry out on his bony ass.

IMHO nothing would be sweeter than seeing Dingy's arse and elbows as he exits the building. Boxer and Barney Frank defeat would come a very close second.

Yeah, I plan to check in on the suicide watch (MSNBC) during breaks from Fox. Their line-up is all hard core lefties (Maddow, Olberman, Mathews), should be a lot of fun.

Based on what I saw at the polling place the Democrats are out in force.

Are you in Delaware?

O’Donnell’s massive political potential will overshadow her considerable physical attributes.

And that’s saying a lot.

This is what we're up against in the First State:

Delawareans turn out at the polls.

Wow, just wow. You can't fix stupid, but hopefully there is enough silent/intimidated support for O'Donnell that will make the rest of us proud.

I think my biggest pleasures would be:

1. O’Donnel Win.
2. Harry Reid loss/Angle win.
3. Barney Frank loss.
4. Boxer loss.
5. Whittman win.

Regaining the House and winning the Senate are both in there I just don’t know where. Lots to root for tonight that’s for sure.

Christine, we already know you’re like Eowyn.

When you get to Washington, you’ve got to be Galadriel. (Remember, the power of the ring is very strong there.)

Kent County, with select precinct exceptions, is COD territory, not Coons.

Coons also just said massive voter intimidation is going on in Delaware ...

What in God's name is he talking about? There is no voter intimidation in Delaware. What a load of crap.

Wouldn’t this just be delicious. My plans for tonight: a bowl a popcorn, FoxNews, and plans to laugh my ass off.

Good idea, but change "FoxNews" to MSNBC and you will laugh a lot harder.
