[Swing low, sweet chariot. Comin' for to carry me home.]

yeah, ODonnell needs to go away.

[Associate Justice PiT]

yeah, ODonnell needs to go away.

     Weren't you talking about how Castle needed to be defeated?

[Smash255]

yeah, ODonnell needs to go away.

     Weren't you talking about how Castle needed to be defeated?

yup, he was cheering on the O'Donnell victory.

[Eraserhead]

yeah, ODonnell needs to go away.

I thought the Tea Party Wave was going to carry her to victory? What happened?

She's already off your Love List? Is it because she's a witch or whatever?

Probably. You know how Bible-thumping crypto-fascists can be.

[J. J.]

I'd expect it to close, but Coons has it.

[auburntiger]

Just plain morons. I don't understand why republicans in Delaware would be willing to sacrifice a chance to gain a statewide race to have O'Donnell lose in a landslide.

Does anyone think castle would gave lost a primary if he had stayed where he was and sought another term in the house?

Here is the problem with those that still favor the moderate wing of the party.  Talk to some from the right.  They don't give a s..t if they lose the general, as long as their views are represented.  They would rather lose the general and win the primary to make a point.  It's that kind of arrogance, ignorance and idiocy that will doom the party for decades to come.  The "my way or the highway" deal will turn millions of voters away from the GOP.  They won't win anything, even if they pick up a few new seats this year, which of course the idiots will say they did either way.

[sg0508]

I think you need to go away after your incomprehensible nonsense that night of the primary.

[Eraserhead]

I'm still waiting for an explanation from jamfest.

^^ This.  They really don't care.

Why should people put party over principle? If a candidate doesn't represent someone's values, there's no reason he or she should be forced to support them or else be accused of "arrogance, ignorance, and idiocy".

Well, you think you have a better shot getting what you want if you give your party no chance to win the seat? Hello, McFly...anybody home?

Probably. You know how Bible-thumping crypto-fascists can be.

1)   Castle needed to lose to keep the current RINO senators in line.
2)   If ODonnel doesn’t have a chance, then she needs to lose quietly.
3)   It doesn’t bother me that she dabbled in witchcraft in her youth.  I did a lot of things in my youth that I am not proud of either.

She appears to have falling further behind, so she simply needs to go down quietly.

[Torie]

What is per se wrong with witchcraft again?  Just asking.  I mean, well, are other religions really that much better?

Yes, I know, coven members might have a difficult time winning votes in the public square. But that does not mean that we have to go with the crowd does it?

Ah, so you did give up on her. Good to know.

[Skill and Chance]

O'Donnell should move to Massachusetts and challenge Tierney in MA-06.  She would have a built in base in Salem.

Looking on the bright side, we can win the senate without winning Delaware now that Wisconsin and West Virginia look possible. Thing is we have to defeat Reid now AND defeat either Boxer or Murray.

...so, piss on Delaware and focus on WI and WV. Christine O'Donnell I feel would be a horrible senator, and if she doesn't crack 40%, I'm "ok" with that, just to make a point of ridiculous nominating her was.

Nothing's wrong with witchcraft. In fact, Wicca is seen as a legitimate left-wing religion. I remember back in 2005 when Bill O'Reilly had a paranoid rant about it the way conservatives rant about Islam these days. The fact that she dabbled in it I have no problem with. It makes her look hypocritical possibly, but it's not a big issue. It's like the fact that Coons used to be a Reagan Republican, in a lot of ways.

Some of the Wiccans I know are actually conservative Republicans. Ex-military types and the like. The problem with O'Donnell is her going from the extremes of blood sacrificing pagan to Torquemada redeux within a single lifetime without explanation makes her seem like a rampant drama queen at best, or just plain unhinged at worst.

[Fmr. Pres. Duke]

Ugh. Just disappointing.
