Default Christine O'Donnel Wins Republican Primary in Delaware

Okay, so Delaware's in the national news, so I had to make a thread about this.

Mike Castle had been an elected official in Delaware for 40 years, governor twice, and congressman for the last 20-some years. He was supposed to cruise to Joe Biden's senate seat. Upstart and Tea-Party + Sarah Palin backed Christine O'Donnell comes out of nowhere and wins the nomination, which was unthinkable a couple of months ago.

The funny thing is that Castle polled way ahead of Democratic contender Chris Coons before this, but now he is way ahead in initial polls ahead of O'Donnell. The GOP tried desperately to distance themselves from her, yet they have to back her now.

What do you think of this? As a Democrat, I think it's good that the Republican side is divided for once. It's usually Democrats splitting up votes and ruining their own chances.

And I'll leave this here for good measure, because it's funny.



This is who DE Republicans voted for...Good luck, guys.
