Oh I think a Palin endorsement would push COD over the top. I too am hoping for a last minute endorsement but I’ve been so heart-broken by the unfairness of it all that I’m braced for disappointment.
COD, polls now show, is within 2 points of Castle, which has Castle scared bejeesus. And Tea Party type of candidates do tend to make big surges toward the end of their campaigns, we know this. Castle was totally ignoring COD up until recently. His campaign is not stupid. Now they are running awful attack ads and the Delaware Blue Blood Ruling Class GOP Chairperson put out an awful press release calling COD everything but a Baltimore Street whore. Again, I can’t say this enough....THIS IS THE PARTY THAT URGED US TO VOTE FOR HER IN 2008!!!
All this for the worst RINO on the planet, on the level of DIDI Scuzzafava folks.
There’s no reason why COD can’t win this. Remember, it’s a REPUBLICAN primary. And like I argue, do NOT believe that she’ll not be able to beat the Dem expected candidate, some little midget guy no one heard of, Chris Coons.
Here’s the scoop....let Christine O’Donnell beat Mike Castle. Imagine, a young, pretty woman who was beat on like a rented mule by the Ruling Class Blue Blood Delaware GOP to come from behind and kick out this fixture in the swamp state....folks, she’ll be the darling of the media.
She’ll be on Fox News...who, as an aside and little scoop, Christine once worked for, yes she did. Christine was a pundit called on to comment on local politics....she was on Fox News quite a bit. She’ll likely even be on CNN, maybe MTP. Definitely Access Hollywood for the All American Girl Kicks Out Old Fossel...hell she might be a contender for Dancing With the Stars.
In short, COD will get so much national exposure because hers will be the all-American story. Even the entrenched media won’t be able to ignore this story.
The Dems up in Wilmington, who vote Dem cause someone tells them to, will even sit up and take notice.
What? You think little midget burger Chris Coons is going to get this sort of attention?
So while they argue that COD can’t beat the Dem candidate, I’d bet a bridge, cheap and recently renovated, that she’ll beat Coons handily. Nobody likes that guy anyway.
