Delaware Senate Race: A Kamikaze Republican and the Tea PartyBy JONATHAN KARL and GREGORY SIMMONS WASHINGTON, Sept. 13, 2010 In Tuesday's Delaware primary, the tea party movement may inflict its most devastating wound yet to the Republican establishment. With an assist from Sarah Palin, tea party activists in Delaware are trying to defeat the Republican candidate with the best chance to win Joe Biden's old Senate seat and nominate instead a candidate Republican leaders say has no chance of winning the general election in November. Rep. Mike Castle is considered a slam dunk to capture Joe Biden's old Senate seat. Castle is a pro-abortion rights, pro-gun control Republican who often works with Democrats. Those traits have helped make him the most popular Republican in a state that leans heavily Democratic; Castle has twice been elected governor and was elected as Delaware's sole representative in the House nine times. But Castle's moderate politics have enraged tea party activists and given Christine O'Donnell an opening. "The Republican Party has lost its way," O'Donnell said. "They get behind candidates like my opponent who don't even support the Republican platform, who continue to support the Democrats' agenda, lock-step-and-barrel." Castle hasn't had a seriously contested primary since 1992. He said he's confident this time, but acknowledges he could go down. "This one's been difficult, not only because I have an opponent with whom I disagree adamantly on a number of issues but is also being funded by the Tea Party Express people, which is totally an out of state circumstance," Castle said. The group Tea Party Express, which also supported the primary campaigns of Sharron Angle in Nevada and Joe Miller in Alaska, said it will spend nearly $200,000 boosting O'Donnell's primary challenge. This one, however, may be the most bitterly divisive Republican primary yet. Republican leaders say an O'Donnell victory would destroy the state party and pretty much ruin any GOP chances of capturing Biden's old seat. "I have no doubt if she by some miracle became the nominee she would lose the seat by unprecedented numbers," Delaware Republican Party chairman Tom Ross said. O'Donnell, who has also been endorsed by Sen. Jim DeMint, R-S.C., and the NRA, called that "Republican cannibalism," which she said is an indication of just how out of touch with their voters and desperate main stream Republicans have become. The Delaware Republican party has been issuing almost daily press releases attacking O'Donnell. One recent release highlighted a Rasmussen poll showing Castle carrying a double-digit lead over Democrat Chris Coons in the general Senate race, 48 percent to 37 percent. When Coons and O'Donnell are matched up, Coons leads O'Donnell by a 47 percent to 36 percent margin. O'Donnell said she remains confident that voters see her as the real Republican choice. "There's a tidal wave coming here in Delaware and my campaign is riding it," she said. "My opponent is drowning in it." Democrats, meanwhile, are salivating at the possibility of an O'Donnell victory Tuesday because if she wins, Democrats are suddenly favored in Delaware. A Democratic victory in Delaware would make it virtually impossible for Republicans to capture a majority in the Senate. Whatever happens in Delaware, tea party Senate candidates have already toppled the choices of the Republican establishment in six states this year. Hooray, Delaware GOP. I bet we can't wait to have another Collins/Snowe in the Senate. But at least Castle would have that all-important (R) next to his name, right?  |

The Tea Party candidate might win the primary, but he'll lose the general.

The question is, can the TEA Party lady win the general election?
If yes, then I hope she gets there... If no, time to hold the nose and vote for Castle. Why? Because we need to take back the Senate, and that means that if there's a Dem state that can be 'turned red' by electing a RINO, it needs to be done... FAILURE TO DO THIS MEANS CHUCKY-SCHUMER AS SENATE MAJORITY LEADER!!!! |

There's only one way to know whether she can win the general or not: She has to be on the ticket first. If she earns the right then she earns the right. It seems to be a common theme (ie MSM tactic) that any tea party candidate immediately gets spammed with the branding of "unable to win the GE". I'm sure that's true in many cases but I'm sure that there are RINO's that are equally un-electable. Graham would get demolished in my state had he been on the ballot in 2010 instead of 2012...
The question to ask of those who say that you should vote for the best candidate but just not this time... If not now then when? Seems that it's never the right time yet according to many heavily into the Grand Ol' Party... |

You would be better off voting Tea Party, the RINO Castle would make a better Democrat than Chuck Shumer in my opinion.
He will be a complete sell out, and monkey wrench any GOP Agenda to show his so-called Bi-partisanship with the Democrats. Bad juju if he is elected.

However, can we afford to have Schumer and the Democrats in control of the US Senate, with Obama in the white house... Basically, it breaks down like this: 1) If the GOP *can* take the Senate back this November, we will need EVERY seat we can get. That means we will need RINOs in blue states. 2) If the GOP *can't* take the Senate, *then* the RINOs are a liability, because without the leadership in GOP hands, they might as well be Democrats... So the question is, is this woman electable IN THAT STATE? If no, then she's not the right one for the General Election in this particular race.... |

What will we really gain by voting for the RINO in the primary?
I guess it depends on who "WE" is. If "we" = conservatives, we gain absolutely nothing. If "we" = middle-of-the-road wishy-washy people, then I suppose that's a "win" if the guy actually wins the general election. |

They are so fed up with the commies that they are deathly afraid of having them retain the majority. I can understand that. But, Castle is so liberal, I wonder if he would support the causes we believe in? I say he probably won't vote to repeal healthcare and will remain a rabid anti-gunner. So, what the heck, go for the Tea Party candidate and let the chips fall where they may. |
