CNN-Poll Shows Surge For O'Donnell in Delaware (Obama's Waterloo?)
CNN ^ | 10-29-10 | By: CNN Ticker Producer Alexander Mooney

(CNN) - A surprising new Senate poll in Delaware shows Republican Christine O'Donnell may be in striking distance of Democrat Chris Coons.

According to the new survey from Monmouth University, the surprise Republican nominee is only 10 points behind Coons, drawing 41 percent of the vote. In a previous Monmouth poll conducted two weeks ago, O'Donnell trailed by 19 points.

But the latest Monmouth survey differs substantially from two other recent polls, including a Farleigh Dickinson survey released Thursday that showed a 21-point advantage for Coons and a CNN/Time poll released earlier this month that indicated a 19-point lead for Coons.

The latest Monmouth poll surveyed 1,171 voters between October 25-27 and carries a sampling error of plus or minus 3 percentage points.

Good points.

The democrat fascists are one big, angry, frustrated, derangement syndrome always looking for something to go ballistic over. That's how they "actualize" themselves, by screaming about who they hate, and who is stupid, etc., etc. Christine was the perfect sort of person to kick them into overdrive and blind rage.

Regards

Just checked the weather forecast for Delaware for Election Day. The high is only supposed to be 54, so how many of the old and poor (who generally lean left) will be willing to go out and stand in the cold to cast their vote, or would they prefer to stay at home and watch The View and Oprah?

If the national pollsters are to be believed, it would appear that older Americans are leaning hard right, not left. At any rate...offer to take some old folks to the polling place...anything to increase the legal voters.

It really is all about turnout.

Reid will lose. Do you think the dem senators will follow their lame duck leader in a lame duck session off an electoral cliff? Again?

Absolutely. They know that their policies breed the dependency that produces more Democrat votes. So do the RINOs, the only difference is that the latter don't want to pay for it.

Ann Coulter says this is the one race she most hopes to see a surprise Republican victory.

54 is no big deal. It’s whether it rains or snows that would be a factor.

So yesterday, the Farleigh Dickinson poll was all lies and leftist drivel, because it showed no change in O'Donnell's numbers.

Today, Monmouth comes out with a more favorable poll, so it's wonderful (unlike that dishonest Monmouth poll from a few weeks back).

This poll is encouraging for O'Donnell, if it's accurate.

It shows a significant swing in independent voters she needs -- again contrary to what the Farleigh-Dickinson poll showed.

If it's accurate....

Thanks for your comments, which explain why the GOP should run candidates in all races, even the “safe” Rat seats. We should make them work for every seat in Congress and deplete their resources.

“The difference may turn out to be the likes of Rove etc. dissing Christine.”

Karl is basically ignoring Christine. Would it kill him at this point to come out and say he’s taken time to listen to her speak on the issues and has changed his views about her qualifications?

Oh God. Someone please post a picture of Christine. Rove is a POS. He was on Hannity’s radio show bloviating. Ego maniac idiot with his VA drawl. Eff off Karl.

The Repub women like Sarah, Bachmann, Haley and others are cuties but I think I am getting a crush on Christine O’Donnell.
