Tea party (tea BAG) favorite wins Delaware GOP Senate nod (God this is too funny for words)

Virtually unknown a month ago, Christine O'Donnell rode a surge of support from tea party activists to victory in the Delaware Republican Senate primary Tuesday night in an upset as stunning as any other in a season of recession and political upheaval. A second insurgent led for the GOP nomination in New Hampshire.

O'Donnell defeated Rep. Mike Castle, a fixture in Delaware politics for a generation who campaigned with the strong backing of party officials in his state and in Washington.

Updated 3 minutes ago Conservative activist Christine O'Donnell has earned a stunning victory in Delaware's Republican Senate primary. Full story


..Despite her win, O'Donnell will enter the fall campaign as an underdog to Chris Coons, a county executive who was unopposed for the Democratic nomination. Republican party officials said in advance they would not come to her aid if she won the primary, and the state party chairman, Tom Ross, said recently she "could not be elected dogcatcher."

2. She has 30% approval ratings state wide
do you honestly think she has a chance, or are you here to argue for her and the teabaggers?

4. Actually, that was the comment I was going to make
But winning a Republican primary anymore is no guarantee that she'll be chasing Fido and Rover with the long-handled net. She's going to get munched in November, but it pleases the popular media to pretend like she has a chance in six weeks.
