There is an equally compelling argument that Obama wanted to come to DE so that he could associate himself with a campaign that won in November.

Remember: BO is already going to face a definite primary challenge from his left with Howard Dean; and Hillary might not be far behind if the economy doesn’t improve.

So I ask again: where are the ads? $2 million+ can purchase a ton of radio and TV ads - and they are not happening.

She needs to get the money to play this on a continuous
loop on November 1st and 2nd. It’s hypnotic:

Thanks for making this point so I didn't have to. The Dems had abandoned the DE senate seat as the “rino” Castle was a shoe-in. Ms. O'Donnell was a gift laid on Obama’s lap on a silver platter. He isn't going to take the chance that Coons, if anything an even worse candidate than the GOP nominee (except without the 20 year paper trail of dissembling, unpaid bills, bogus law suits and all around giddy weirdness) could figure out a way to blow this. Obama is simply making sure that the seat stays in his pocket and lays the markers so he can take a modicum of credit on Nov. 2. I wouldn't spend next month's mortgage payment on a check to the O'Donnell campaign under the assumption that she's a commercial or two away from pulling this off. But if it makes you feel better, go for it: after all Coons is almost as weak a candidate as Miss “I am You,” whatever that means.
