Castle was one of six Republicans that voted for Cap and Trade. :roll:

He quite often votes with the Dems. This is going to really screw up the number of votes the Dems. count on from RINOs

The RINO's have got to be worried I only wish Collins ans Snowe were running as those two I believe don't remember who elected them. :roll:

posing a major upset to the political establishment on the last big day of primaries.

With all precincts reporting, O'Donnell beat Castle 53-47 percent.

O'Donnell's win stands as the latest sign of Tea Party strength

not bad for an astro-turf flash in the pan bunch of racist nutcases! :D

But the Delaware results, in particular, were a shock to Republicans who were previously able to find some plausible explanation for why one of their incumbents or top candidates had taken a loss. Castle, unlike Sens. Lisa Murkowski and Robert Bennett, went after O’Donnell aggressively,

That GOP primary voters would go ahead and nominate such a risky candidate has establishment Republicans worrying about who, if anybody, is now in charge of a traditionally top-down party.

by the republican party balking at supporting O'Donnell, she recently made gains with independents and moderate democrats and "disenfranchised" voters..

it seems the more the political elite in either party aggressively attacks a female outsider, the more support she gets from "regular" folk..

is it our deep seated sense of values?? , that we can argue an issue aggressively , yet find vicious attacks on "ladies" repulsive?

Influential Republicans pledged Wednesday to support Christine O'Donnell's general election campaign after party leaders initially turned their backs on the Tea Party candidate following her upset win in the Delaware Senate primary.



National Republican Senatorial Committee Chairman John Cornyn said in a written statement Wednesday that O'Donnell would have NRSC support as well as the maximum $42,000 donation from the organization. "Let there be no mistake: The National Republican Senatorial Committee -- and I personally as the committee's chairman -- strongly stand by all of our Republican nominees, including Christine O'Donnell in Delaware," Cornyn said.

Castle, who argued O'Donnell could not win in a general election against Democrat Chris Coons, reportedly will not endorse O'Donnell. But party leaders on Capitol Hill tried to embrace her candidacy Wednesday.

Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., told Fox News he would support the nominee and donate money from his political action committee.

Republican National Committee Chairman Michael Steele announced his support.

Rep. Mike Pence, R-Ind., the third-ranking Republican in the House, said he would not count out O'Donnell in November.

"I categorically reject that Christine O'Donnell cannot win in Delaware," he said. "This is a whole new world. We elected a Republican in Massachusetts."
