But… But… This race was supposed to be a lock?

Christine O’Donnell sliced the Bearded Marxist‘s lead in half in one week.
That’s weird. Barack Obama is rushing back to blue state Delaware to campaign with Chris Coons this weekend.
Via American Glob:
RUSH: Obama is back to Delaware tomorrow. There is a new poll. The Monmouth University poll. Christine O’Donnell is within ten points. Two weeks ago she was down 57-38. She is within ten points. Coons has backed out of the final two debates, and in the Monmouth University poll, Christine O’Donnell is winning independents 47 to 42. In Delaware, there are a lot of Democrats fed up with the direction of the country who are going to vote Republican or who aren’t going to vote.
Chris Coons was sued three times in 2007 for retaliating against public employees for their political views.

Those internal polls must be brutal to the Democrats, to say the least.
Besides, let Obama go to Delaware. After all, he has the Reverse Midas Effect: everything he touches turns to…
arnonerik commented:
Just imagine where O’Donnell would be if the damn Republicans (Rove, etcetera_) had not worked so hard to tear her down giving ammunition and credibility to the Left.

Damn the terrorist attacks, a fellow traveler is in trouble!
NeoKong commented:
We can’t lose with this woman.
Even if she loses we still win because she bumped off RINO guy Mike Castle and sent a message to all RINO’s that we would rather back a conservative who may not win than some squishy half vote that is not reliable.
Win or lose I tip my hat to Christine O’Donnell.

Let Obama and VP Bite Me join Rove and the Establishment GOP, all standing together against American people, values, and prosperity.
They can all go down together, too. This thing is not over yet.
SoCalXD commented:
Obama is staying away from competitive races. Democrats don’t want to be seen with him right now.
He’s campaigning in Delaware because he believes it is a sure winner and he wants to take credit for taking down the tea party candidate.
I hope Christine wins, but this is how I interpret these actions.
Chisum commented:
After the foul Gawker hit piece the dems are expecting major backlash. Especially from women.
Liberals always overreach and end up shooting themselves in the foot.
They haven’t learned anything from their Palin debacle.
down with dems commented:
Let’s hope for another classic Obama reverse Midas touch, like with Coakley.
Coons – he inherited a budget SURPLUS and turned it into a DEFICIT, despite raising property taxes THREE TIMES (once as much as 50%!) after promising NOT to. He’ll be a rubber stamp for Obama, so enjoy your higher taxes and energy costs if you vote for him, Delaware. Clearly he has no idea how to do math or manage money or balance a budget, so when Washington runs out of money, be ready to fork over more cash, DE.
Christine O’Donnell isn’t a witch or a Marxist.
gus commented:
What is truly HALLOWEEN SCARY about …
O’Donnell VS Coons… is….
COONS is a committed MARXIST. He is a LIBTARD of EPIC PROPORTIONS.
O’Donnell, is somewhat SKETCHY and not a very good “Candidate” by MEDIA standards.
Once upon a time. A MARXIST would have been the LESSER candidate.
WHAT HAPPENED TO AMERICA??
What happened to DELAWARE, in the sense that Delaware WILLINGLY supports a FRUITCAKE MARXIST??
O’Donnell is going to lose to a MARXIST, because DELAWARE, is COMPLETELY GOVERNMENT DEPENDENT and CO-OPTED from normal working, PRIVATE SECTOR EMPLOYERS.
jainphx commented:
The LORD could make Wednesday soooo much better by beating down the traitors “in our own ranks” that sh@@ on Christine. Rove to me is no better than a scum like John Kerry, they both think the sun rises because they say so. The “architect” yeah he designed a way for the house and senate along with the oval office, to magically disappear from the R column. Never once advised Bush to defend himself, no just sat back and allowed his numbers to slide into the Potomac. Both presidential races against the worst candidates on the planet, were almost blown. GO AWAY ROVE! and find a hole to slither into.
gus commented:
JAINPHX. Touche.
Rove gave Christine O’Donnell the kiss of death.
So did Charles Krauthammer.
It became a SELF FULFILLED PROPHESY.
The conventional beltway wisdom was for CASTLE to win and be a part of a Republican Senate Majority.
It could have been.
The RINO’S could have won the Senate.
But when O’Donnell won the Primary.
Rove and Krauthammer sought to EXPRESS and EXPLOIT their… ELITE KNOWLEDGE.
They s**t on O’Donnell for their own purposes.
Shame on them.
gus commented:
The Bearded Marxist is up by 10 points.
Delaware elected Biden for 36 years.
It’s LIBTARD LAND.
GOVT DEPENDENCY CITY.
Opie is going to spend Political Capital on a NO-BRAINER. And in doing so, Opie will support a MARXIST.
OBAMA IS SO SO SO VERY SMART!!! NOT.

They are emotionally disturbed.
sliderblaze commented:
it’s the enthusiasm gap and first time voters thats got them worried… If she gets within 4-5 points by tuesday… all bets are off!!! keep fishing for those first time voters Christine!!!
louis c commented:
Hopefully, it is because she’s pulling ahead. If she’s not, Obama’s going there because it’s easy pickings. Like all Marxists he’s a bully. His whole life he’s had things rigged for him. Like Rush says, his profs gladly changed those C’s to A’s.
Agree with NeoKong — it’s worth it to knock off a RINO. Let’s see how Goober Grahamnesty votes in the future. I don’t think he’ll think he’s safe in the primaries anymore.
Militant Conservative commented:
My money is still on christine. Skippy campaigning there to me seals the deal. Imam Barak Hussien Obamdenajad could not pick the winner of a one horse race. his Narcissist tendencies are such. IF he shows up the guy I stump for wins. that is his sick twisted mind.
Watch. powder is dry .

@SoCalXD Nail. Head.
It will be interesting to see where the polls have O’Donnell on Monday, though.
P. Aaron commented:
Being a hard-core Right Wing guy, I vote for the most conservative candidate. My advice to Deleware residents: after so many years of Joe Biden, vote for the Hot Chick and give your selves some visual relief as well as someone who will back sensible economic and national policies.
The babe has it all this time around: smarts & looks.
Elric commented:
Even if she loses, the Demoncraps will have had to tie up resources there that they coulda used elsewhere.
As for the odious Rove… An objective look at history could easily yield the interpretation that he was NEVER a political genius, but rather he was lucky to be associated with a candidate (& election cycles) where a ham sandwich coulda got Bush elected. He has objectively shown, since 2004-2005, that he is not a serious person, not a political genius, not a proper Republican, and his so-called intellectual depth (as is the case with so many in the elite) is really just pseudo-intellectual.

IMHO, forty years of marxists leaning journalists brainwashing the American people…Don’t despair however, the new media is tearing down the marxists institutions CBS, ABC, NBC, CNN, MSNBC, the New York Times, USA today, virtually every newspaper in the land…Good riddance to the fools, liars, charlatans!
The Worm commented:
Obama’s going back to Delaware, because Coons will likely win. In fact, he has a better chance at winning should Obama stay in DC.
The purpose is to limit the perception that Obama is an albatross on all the Dem candidates’. The media will dutifully fall in line to push the visibility of the Delaware result as a referendum on Obama’s policies. Just watch it happen. They will virtually ignore the other races…Federal and State and focus on the one state he visited twice…and, therefore, saved.

Please read, Democratic Kool Aid. Ties to Jim Jones, and the Peoples Temple, Harry Reid.
Written by Dr. Jack Wheeler
Tuesday, 26 October 2010
Georgetown, Guyana. You may think you’ve never heard of this place but you have.
The former British Guiana (one of the three Guianas – the other two being former Dutch Guiana, now Surinam, and French Guiana, all on the northeast shoulder of South America) – is these days visited by folks into eco-tourism. This place has one of the most untouched rainforests on earth with an astonishing variety of bird and wildlife.
But Guyana doesn’t ring a bell with you because of harpy eagles and howler monkeys. How about Jim Jones and Jonestown? Yes, that Guyana, where, on November 18, 1978, over 900 Americans committed mass suicide on orders of their cult leader.
It remains one of the most bizarre events of modern times – from which the phrase “drinking the Kool-Aid” originates, meaning blind unthinking acceptance of a suicidally idiotic set of beliefs.
Yet almost no one knows just what, exactly, were the beliefs of the “Peoples Temple” cult created by Jim Jones. Some sort of weird religion, right?
Nope. Jim Jones calling his Peoples Temple a “church” was a tax-avoidance scam as it was purely secular. He admitted in a taped interview, “I’m an atheist.” He was not a religious leader. He was a Stalin-admiring far left San Francisco Democrat.
Born in Indiana in 1931, Jones joined the Communist Party USA at age 21, then formed his Peoples Temple Church preaching “apostolic socialism,” which he claimed was the only path to salvation from “capitalist America, racist America, fascist America.” He denounced Christianity as “the white man’s oppression of women and people of color.” Jones was white, Welsh-Irish. Most all of his followers were black.
In 1975, Jones established the headquarters of the Peoples Temple in San Francisco, where his followers were instrumental (as in voting multiple times) in electing Dem George Moscone Mayor. Moscone often took Jones with him to meetings with Governor Jerry Brown and Vice-President Walter Mondale. Board of Supervisors member Harvey Milk often delivered speeches at the Temple and wrote a letter to President Jimmy Carter praising Jones as “a man of the highest character.”
(The 2008 movie Milk, in which Sean Penn won a Best Actor Oscar for portraying Harvey Milk as a homosexual hero, makes no mention whatever of Jones and Jonestown, even though Milk and Moscone were killed just 9 days after the Jonestown Massacre.)
In 1976, after newspaper interviews of defectors from Jones’ Temple describing Jones’ bisexual abuses of his followers, Jones established Jonestown on 3,000 acres in remote northern Guyana as a “benevolent communist community,” and ordered 1,000 of his followers to move there. Once living in Jonestown, his followers were not allowed to leave. Any attempt to do so was prevented by Jones’ armed “Red Brigade” security guard.
Guyana had been ruled since independence from Britain in 1966 by a Marxist dictator, Forbes Burnham, who established strong relations with Cuba and the Soviet Union (upon his death in 1985, his body was mummified by the laboratory of the Lenin Mausoleum in Moscow). The Soviet Embassy in Georgetown provided aid to the community. The only films followers were allowed to watch were Soviet propaganda movies. Jones declared that “the Soviet Union is our spiritual motherland.”
Horror stories from defectors and escapees from Jonestown aroused the concern of California Congressman Leo Ryan, who flew with a press entourage to Georgetown and on to the Jonestown dirt airstrip to bring back those who wanted to leave. They arrived on November 18, 1978. Several Temple members asked for asylum. Returning to airstrip, as they were boarding the plane, a truckload of Red Brigade guards appeared and gunned them down. Ryan, along with five others, was killed, the first and only murder of a US Congressman in the line of duty in US history.
After the murders which he had ordered, Jones declared that US forces would arrive to “convert the children to Fascism,” and that the only acceptable alternative was “revolutionary suicide.” He had a vat prepared of Kool-Aid and another similar powdered drink mix Flavor Aid, heavily laced with potassium cyanide.
908 Temple followers drank the Kool-Aid, the mothers squirting the poison in their infant babies’ mouths. Jones blew his brains out after they were all dead.
The entire suicide episode was audio-taped. You can hear Jones telling his followers that “as socialistic Communists… we must die with dignity.” You can hear the crowd cheering and clapping, and the babies screaming and crying. Near the end, a woman says it is a “loving thing” they are doing, that she is glad to “give my life for Socialism, Communism,” and she thanks “Dad” (what they called Jones) for enabling her to do so.
Here is the FBI transcript of the tape.
All of this, including the transcript, is a matter of public record. Have you ever, in 32 years, heard that Jim Jones was a fanatic of the Left, ever heard the Left taking any responsibility for Jonestown in any way? Of course not.
And you never will – because the Left today, the Democrat Party, the liberal media, blogosphere, and academia – has become itself a cult of revolutionary suicide. They’ve all drunk the Kool-Aid. Which means the aftermath of November 2nd is likely to get violently ugly.
Particularly so in Arkansas, California, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Illinois, Iowa, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Missouri, Montana, Nevada, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Oklahoma, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, West Virginia, Wisconsin, and Vermont – 26 states in all.
What do they have in common? A Democrat Secretary of State, the state’s chief elections officer responsible for certifying the results of state elections. Let me tell you about one, Nevada’s Ross Miller.
He’s a stooge of Harry Reid. Last January, Reid put up a huckster named Scott Ashjian to register a political party named Tea Party of Nevada (TPN), and under it register as a candidate for the US Senate. Nevada law states that for a party’s candidates to get on the ballot, a petition must be filed with the Secretary of State with a minimum of 9,000 signatures. The filing deadline is June and Ashjian never filed any petition at all, much less one with the requisite signatures.
Miller then ruled that somehow the law did not apply to this fictional Tea Party as it did for others such as the Libertarian or Green parties. The Angle campaign sued, as it was an obvious underhanded Reid ploy to fool voters who would otherwise vote for Angle. Miller ruled that the suit was filed too late as it was past the June deadline!
Then the Dem majority Nevada Supreme Court upheld Miller’s ruling.
The ballot identifies each candidate’s party by abbreviation such as DEM or REP. Ashjian demanded his make-believe party’s abbreviation be changed from TPN to TEA. The ballot printing office said it was too late to do that. So last week, Miller ordered that all polling booths in the state must prominently place a notice saying that TPN stands for Tea Party of Nevada. No notice is required for any other party, just Ashjian’s fraud.
So, if the Angle-Reid vote is close and Angle wins by less than 1%, how high do you think the odds are that Miller will Franken-ize the election, with serial counts and recounts until Reid wins? High as Everest.
This may happen in every tight Congressional and Senate race in all the 26 states above. Gore v. Bush 2000 on steroids. Dems will cheat wherever possible – preventing soldiers overseas from getting their ballots, rigging absentee and “provisional” votes, rigging vote machines, cemetery and multiple votes on election day – then challenge the results wherever they barely lose and do serial recounts. It doesn’t matter how they win – the ends justify the means, the basis of Marxist morality – just so they do.
Dems have to win – or they don’t eat. If Republicans lose, they go back to their regular lives and careers. Living off the government is the career of Dems, and they starve if they can’t.
The particular flavor of Kool-Aid all the Dems – again, the entire Left, from Dem politicians to the leftie media, blogosphere, and academia – are drinking right now is their conviction that all those who vote Republican are racist haters who hate Zero because he’s black. The only reason that the racist haters will defeat Dems on November 2nd is the foreign money illegally pouring in to Rep campaigns.
Point out to them that Rep-supporting outfits like the US Chamber of Commerce must by law (and do) disclose their foreign donations (which turn out to be miniscule), while Leftie outfits like MoveOn and SEIU do not (and don’t), and they do the schoolyard act: put their fingers in their ears and yell, “I can’t hear you!”
You can see the Lefties going deranged everywhere. Look at the Leftie Internet media such as YouTube, which is now filled with videos smearing Republican candidates as rapists, wife-beaters, criminals, total wackos, etc.
This is going to explode into an absolute apoplexy of Leftie derangement after November 2nd. A myth entrenched in Leftie brains is that Bush cheated Gore out of the presidency in 2000. After November 2nd, they will convince themselves that Republican racist haters cheated Dems out of their House Majority and will look upon the Reps who “won” just as illegitimate as Bush. They will no more accept a Republican House Majority (and possibly in the Senate) as legit than they did W.
This is real Jim Jones Kool-Aid they are drinking. They would rather the entire country and the entire economy commit revolutionary suicide than they be out of power. There is a two-part solution to this.
First, any violence they commit, such as by SEIU thugs, should be dealt with by a hammer. Zero tolerance by Republican governors, who should call out the National Guard in their states if necessary. States stupid enough to have a Dem governor will just have to suck it up. If “inner cities” get torched, that’s their problem – just don’t ask taxpayers to pay to rebuild what taxtakers burned down.
Second is a be-my-guest policy. No more Leftie whining. Shut up or kill yourselves. We don’t care any more. We are going to make America prosperous and free again, and if you don’t like it, too bad. Either deal with it, come to your senses, and become Americans again – or go away. Move to some jungle someplace and drink your Kool-Aid by yourselves and leave us and our country which you hate alone. Goodbye.
Folks, one week from today, November 2nd, begins the demolition of the Left in America. It begins with zero tolerance of their cheating and their threats. We do that, and it’s morning in America once more.

The root of all evil in this arena is Karl Rove, the consummate old gard, insider, mainstream Republican who would rather see us not gain the Senate than support Tea Party backed Christine O’Donnell. Rove is in a power struggle with Sarah Palin, and is loosing, but will do as much damage as possible on his way down. Just yesterday he said that she doesn’t have the credentials or “gravitas” to run in 2012. He knew this could do irreparable harm to her and the Conservative cause and our nation, but his hatred won out. Despicable guy!

The root of all evil in this arena is Karl Rove,
*************
uuuh, no. He’s a political junkie on your side, who voiced his qualms about a candidate that he viewed as unlikely to win. He was voicing the best of the conventional wisdom.
The root cause of this problem is the Tom Daschle group of Democrats, who decided they were going to ride the war in Iraq to the White House, and who took huge amounts of foreign money and encouraged fraud in an effort to get revenge for the judicial decision in the Florida case.
Their decisions have been fundamentally corrupt, and bad for both their party and our country. The proper American response to fraudulent (or at least iffy) behavior during elections is to tighten up the procedures to ensure that future elections have an accurate tally. The leadership of the Democratic party has failed us all, by failing to act like Americans in response to an electoral problem.
