She might be the worst candidate to get 40% of the vote in an election ever.

The hilarious thing is she's right!

Oh wait, sorry, he got under 40% of the vote in his attempt at reelection, which he lost by 39 points, a margin at least twice as large as the second-biggest defeat of a Senatorial incumbent.

(All joking aside, he lost worse than O'Donnell.  LOL.)

If that race had taken place in a year like 2006, Coons would have had 65%.

Santorum has Angle, and Mitt has O'Donnell. Mitt ended up with the relatively better nut. At least one can look at O'Donnell if she does not talk, or you mute her. Looking at Angle is like looking into the sun.

Yes, Santorum is more liberal than Mitt, especially on unions and trade. Santorum is a "Diet Democrat" on those issues. But what she should have said is that Santorum is the Original Big Government Conservative.

Yep, 16.58% margin for O'Donnell, 17.36% for Santorum.  And Delaware is D+7.

Sorry, but Santorum lost to a bald guy. And Santorum had the power of incumbency. How did that happen?

I was looking at the percentage each candidate received.

Christine also ran in 2010 and had a nobody opponent. Santorum had to run in 2006 against a state legend.

This "bald guy" thing might be the best new forum meme.

Being an incumbent isn't always an advantage, dumb. Especially not in 2006.

I will concede that 2006 was a bad year to be a Republican, but losing to a bald guy? That should not happen, ESPECIALLY if you are an incumbent who is one of the Senate's top three leaders.

Sometimes I wonder if you think before you post idiotic things like this.

I think we need someone to do a BRTD type signature:

The individuals pictured below are BALD:

So being the County Executive of the county which makes up 2/3rds of the state's population now qualifies as being a "nobody?"  Whereas a failed former gubernatorial candidate now is a "state legend?"

LOL @ the notion of a bald guy being a "state legend." Santorum must have been an atrocious senator/candidate to make a "state legend" out of a bald guy.

Ok, I know you aren't being serious but I'll address it anyway: Coons was relatively unknown and a definite sacrificial lamb. Casey was far more than a "failed former Gubernatorial candidate;" he's a Casey and statewide office holder.

Yeah, the Caseys are political royalty in PA, and rightfully so.

Well, he did have a head of hair, unlike his son, Bald Casey.

But Bob Casey, Sr. is NOT who Santorum lost to.
