Tom Ross capped off 10 minutes of trying to build bridges with conservatives by blowing himself up and angering conservatives, with these renewed attacks on Christine O'Donnell.
>>As the conservative faithful exited, Paula Manalakos, wife of Delaware State Representative Nick Manalakos was over heard stating “there go the Christians”. Paula Manalakos ironically works for the Delaware State Republican Committee, and her comment is telling of the disdain for conservatives within the Delaware Republican Party.<<
That’s my state rep and his wife. That’s not the first time that she’s gone over the deep end. She started screaming at me after the primary. He’s little more than a used car salesman-type politician. I’m getting me a sign “I’m a Christian.”
...and this is different from every other day, how?
Just kidding. Great job. Let folks around here know when it gets posted. Can't wait to see the meeting.

Maybe I should have said I am MORE full of myself today than before.
Below is a link to my Photobucket page with all of the videos now uploaded from last night’s GOP meeting, INCLUDING my interview with Tom Ross. The videos’ descriptions should make it simple to ascertain what’s on the video. It is a public page so should be accessible.

Got it. Thanks! Headed over to watch.
I was soliciting the response you gave me. Everyone is blasting the Republican Party for not supporting O’Connell as if the party’s choice would have won. He would not have. That was my point! The party is way out into left field.
O’Donnell NOT O’Connell.
It is abubdantly clear that the DE GOP is: a) infrsted with RIBOs; b) cares more for their own “power” than electing candidates; and c)dead, dead, dead. If they think that 2010 was an aberation, wayt until 2012. The long knives are out for Governor Palin. The RINOs want Mitt Romney.
Just wait until they ask Conservatives to hold their noses for “the good of the party”. SARAH PALIN 2012!
Ross has been an embarrassment for years, from when the RINO’s up in New Castle first brought him in to “lead”. He’s a stunning example of all that is wrong with the GOP nationwide.
short answer, Yes - Castle would have beat Coons.
semi long version...
When Junior Joe Biden finally announced he was not running for the Senate seat, the Dems scrambled to find a candidate. Chris Coons agreed to be the sacrificial lamb to loose against Castle in ‘10 and then run for Carper’s senate seat in ‘12 or Castle’s seat in ‘14 when he would probably retire.
After O’Donnell beat Castle in the primary, the DNC poured money and volunteers into the state to drive turnout. They would have ignored DE if Castle was on the ticket polling ten points ahead.
This turnout effort not only crushed O’Donnell but swept away Republicans down-ticket.
as foor Republican party support, The Party sent out 6 statewide mailers for O’Donnell. What did the rest of the ticket get?
Urqhart for congres - zero
Boninni for state treasurer - zero
Wagner for Auditor (the last state wide R inucumbant) zero
O’Donnell sucked up all the state party money and still claimed they weren’t supporting her. Why? because it fit with her “outsider” image and because everytime she complained the party was against her, freepers sent her more money.
Tom Ross should resign for wasting money on the weakest candidate (with the most money) and ignoring the rest of the ticket.
Thanks for the explanation! I had heard differently but I trustvyour version.
