Or even their clip...;)

Yep!
And I’ll wager you this: Even if COD was at +10 points, some of these same folks would find something to Bit*h about. If a Democrat had made this type of gain, the Dems would be celebrating.
So if Amspec had used the Survey USA pre debate numbers instead of the Monmouth pre debate numbers, Christine’s gain would be even better at 10 points instead of 8. I know these are different surveys but Rassmussen’s last poll on this race was Sept 16th. None the less, I think this clearly indicates she won the debate and has the momentum.
Why do you need to get personal and go on the attack? I made a legitimate point. Sorry if you just want to read happy talk, but there is reality in politics and the reality is another 11 points will be tougher than the last 8-10. This is Delaware, not Alabama. I didn’t say she’s going to lose or is “doomed,” but the reality is it’s going to be a tough uphill climb. As I said, I’d love to be told I was wrong on November 3rd. Sheesh, calm down. Honestly.
Well said!
I’ve been predicting a win for Christine since the beginning.
She’ll win by plus 2.
I really do believe that COD has to change the narrative and I think Sarah Palin is helping her out to do just that.
Call it a Hail Mary pass or whatever and Hail Mary passes don’t usually work but hey what does she have to lose by attacking the ruling class!
Didn’t Obama and Biden campaign for Coon-Boy?
Castle is no longer in the House and not going to be in the Senate.
Christine has accomplished the mission.
Coons, if he wins, is merely replacing Biden’s seat...net change zero.
Castle is gone, Christine 1, Dem/RINO 0
Go Christine, go!
In fact I think this is Ras first two way poll, since that three way poll 3 weeks ago. This poll is significantly tighter than all other polling - it's either an outlier, or, knowing Ras accuracy, more accurate. We may not have much else from Ras on this - who knows, maybe one more to view a 2 way race trend. If he does that, that’ll be fun to watch.
I think nationally people know that if CO wins or even comes reasonably close, the Republicans will ROUT the RATS.
This will also be fascinating on a couple other counts - the old propagandist media's impotence to affect politics currently (certainly not in the way they used to) and Sarah Palin's chances to win a White House race.
Previous Rasmussen polls show basically 11 points going back two months So Rasmussen isn’t showing a change when you compare his polls. Who knows what this race is really like.
She needs to come out with hay makers now and I believe she will. Screw the National Pub's, they are showing more and more they just want to get things back to "business as usual".
Apparently Obama and Biden have some inside bad news. Why else did they go to Delaware today if Coons has it wrapped up?

I’ll take that!
I’d love that, but no, not true.
Basically unchanged at 11 on Rasmussen. I do think that the Rasmussen is the most accurate.
One of the keys to figuring out which states will have Senate races with Democratic seats that will most likely turn Republican is looking at Obama’s approval numbers in the respective state. The states with Democrats or Dem open seats most threatened are those where Obama’s approvals are under 50%. These include Arkansas, Colorado, Indiana, Nevada, North Dakota, Pennsylvania, Washington, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania where Obama is under 50% approval, well under in a few cases. However Delaware gives Obama one of his highest approval numbers at 61%, meaning the head winds here are blowing against O’Donnell, not Coons. I know I will be flamed by some of the starry-eyed O’Donnell groupies here for pointing out these facts, but this is a long proven formula for determining Senate race outcomes among political professionals.
I certainly hope the formula proves wrong in this case and that O’Donnell’s infectious personality and ethusiasm destroys Coons’s hackish and pompous personality, but she’s got work to do.
Why? FREEPERS thought it was brilliant!!! Seriously some thought it was the best political commercial they have seen. I didn't think that but for running for class president it was cute.
I don’t agree the next 10 points or whatever will be more difficult. Chris Coons is a pathetic candidate and Ras had COD leading him head to head as late as July of this year. His support is soft at the very best and if the voters see anything at all in COD he’s dead. He is a very unappealing candidate.
This race is hers for the taking if her handlers do this right.
“Didn’t Obama and Biden campaign for Coon-Boy”?
Yep, in fact both of them were in Wilmington DE today to stump for Coons.
