Win-Win
Fresh off the Republican primary scene, Tea Party candidate (and Republican Party spoiler) Christine O’Donnell is stomping the pavement to repair internal Rep. Party division caused by her victory in Delaware’s Senate primary elections. She defeated nine-term Representative, Mike Castle, to run against Democrat Chris Coons in November’s general elections.
O’Donnell is trailing Coons in the polls to win the Del. Senate seat, once held for several decades by Vice President Joe Biden. Opposition are already reviving old soundbites from O’Donnell where she’s made statements like, “The Bible says that lust in your heart is committing adultery. So, you can’t masterbate without lust.” This is but one of the [alleged] many unflattering statements made by O’Donnell, which will be used to portray her as unfit to lead. Apparently, Republicans around the country have deemed her unelectable and immediately began to express their disapproval of her nomination.
At today’s Values Voters Summit, O’Donnell attacked her opponents, saying, “They call us wacky.” Well, I’m not so sure that those soundbites, the Sarah Palin endorsement (credited for catipulting O’Donnell to victory), or the Palin physical and vocal makeover doesn’t hurt their argument…
