I highly doubt it. Carney has been blasting the airwaves with his ads (both his positive ads and the one where Urquhart infamously states that we should ask our liberal friends why they are Nazis). I haven't seen anything from Urquhart.

Even if all things were even in this race, the Coons landslide will bring Carney across the finish line.

It's worth noting that tea partiers may have cost Republicans the house and senate seat in Delaware.

Huh.  I thought it would track the Senate race.

May? More like indisputable, unless you mean they were probably doomed to lose the House seat anyway.

I meant to imply that, in this environment, DE-AL could have been winnable for Republicans had they not nominated Urquhart.

The other candidates in the primary were pretty lousy too.

Carney has pretty good ads for the record:

From what I've heard, Carney is pretty much invisible in the state (outside of his TV ads, of course). He's basically coasting on an assumed victory.

At least they're good ads. I like how he's bashing the Tea Party even if not mentioning them by name.

I guess that's a sign Vepres is going to flip this one again and then probably the obviously competitive VT-AL.

At this point saying candidates are like Martha Coakley is a lot like saying your opponents are acting like Nazi's. Both are tired, overused and rarely valid comparisons.

I'm glad I'm not only one who is tired of hearing about Martha Coakley. The comparisons are become a broken record.

Uh, no. I still have it as lean-D. I was simply pointing out how incredibly stupid it is to "assume victory" in all but the most Democratic districts.

The problem for the Republicans is Urquhart is a crazy with no money. Michele Rollins might have been a better nominee, though she ran a terrible primary campaign.
