WILMINGTON, Del. – Conservative activist Christine O'Donnell earned a stunning victory in Delaware's Republican Senate primary Tuesday, riding a wave of tea party anger and advertising dollars to oust U.S. Rep. Michael Castle.
O'Donnell's shocking win gave new energy to the tea party movement, which targeted Castle after victories by Republican tea party candidates in the Alaska and Nevada Senate primaries.
With 78 percent of precincts reporting, O'Donnell had 54 percent to 46 percent for Castle, a former two-term governor and the longest serving congressman in Delaware history.

The GOP also filed a complaint with the Federal Elections Commission accusing O'Donnell of illegally colluding with tea party supporters.
Gonna get uglier, this conservatives/tea party movement vs. the GOP/RINOs!!!

I've never seen the Ass. Press refer to a commie 'RAT politician as a liberal activist...doo dah doo dah.
Wasn't Barry a Marxist activist before he was elected? I don't remember them ever calling him that.

That is because this messes up the liberal alignment of the Rino’s and the democrats.

I will admit to not following this race. But it appears to me that if there is no difference to having Castle instead of a Democrat, where's the downside in O'Donnell's victory. Except for one thing. If this makes the difference at some point as to which party controls the Senate, then if she loses where Castle might have won, then the Democrats would control the Senate. That's the big gamble with O'Donnell. But as far as the voting is concerned, Castle would be just like having a Democrat.
Anyway now it's critical that the GOP get behind O'Donnell. The big shots of the GOP might have to eat some crow but that's politics.
