Rightly or wrongly, people form impressions quickly from the MSM, including local newspapers like the News Journal in Delaware.
The late primary in DE did not give COD any chance of rehabilitating her image, and she made missteps from day 1.
Why the Hell should she get trapped into talking about the 14th amendment or any other off-message item when unemployment in DE is roughly 9%?
Yes, COD has been trashed by the MSM, but much of this has been of her own making.
I am encouraging everyone in DE that I know to vote for COD, but she is a lousy candidate.
No, she is not a lousy candidate. She is a citizen candidate, and if we had more citizen candidates IMHO, our nation would be much better off. Is she flawless? Far from it, but whatever she is, she is a hundred times better then some America hating Marxist like Chris Coons. Screw the media, screw their polls, just get out and vote for her, win or lose. You gotta be in it to win it!!!
LOL. She was good enough to beat a nine term incumbent Congressman who was also a Lt Gov and two term Governor of the state and she did it going away.
And she was such a "lousy candidate" that Karl Rove tried to convince the Delaware Tea Party not to support her. And Obama and Biden have been trying to rally the troops in Delaware to keep the "Biden" seat. And this "lousy candidate" has been outraising Coons in campaign funding.
COD has already won. She beat a smug, arrogant RINO who won't even have the decency and honor to endorse her against the Dem. And she has soldiered on despite the dastardly attacks of Karl Rove and the Delaware state GOP chair.
Given your attitude, I would suggest you not try to convince anyone to vote for COD. You can't sell a product you don't believe in.
