Shocker: Tea Party Candidate Christine O’Donnell Wins Delaware GOP Primary

video
» 94 comments

In what will certainly be described as both a shocking outcome and a sign of the political times, Christine O’Donnell has been declared the winner in the GOP primary in Delaware over the favorite Mike Castle. O’Donnell has been described by many as the “Tea Party” candidate, and has received endorsements from Sarah Palin and Jim DeMint. CNN has just declared her the winner in a party with huge national implications moving forward.

The following clip comes from CNN’s Larry King Live with a live break in from John King. After the announcement is made, Larry King turns to guest Bill Maher who proclaims “she’ll never win in November.” Maybe. But no one thought she’d win in September, and look where she is now.

    Better headline: “Democrat Wins Delaware Senate Race”

  • philipjames

    You know, O’Donnell may not win in November, but you better believe that the Democrats will have to spend a bunch of money and effort defeating her.
    why? well, look at the numbers of Republicans voting… they expected that 30,000 would be a good turnout…
    it is over 57,000
    the Democrats will have to get the vote out and that costs money, especially without any enthusiasm for Obama and the Democrat Party.

    Delaware is a relatively liberal state. Only a moderate Republican like Gravel could get elected there, so Republicans are giving this one up in November.

    In the 1972 movie “The Candidate” starring Robert Redford as a Democract running for CA Senate which was based on former Senator John Tunney D-CA who was called the lightweight son of former heavyweight champion Gene Tunney who beat Jack Dempsey in the famous long count bout Redford said at the end after winning “What do we do now”?This is what faces these teabaggers who have never faced major league pitching before.To win they must get by the full frontal lombotomy from Democrats and the GOP establishment are gonna make them more mainstream and ditch the crazy talk.See Sharon Angle and Rand Paul and you know I’m right.

    the party voters selected who they wanted, I’m sick of the second guessing and outside forces constantly talking about it. It’s a closed DE primary. EAT IT.

    I understand it’s not close to a purple state, but people are showing that they don’t put up with big mouths telling em what to do. Pundits are so concerned with seat numbers that they still ignore the voters. When you are told to do something or act a certain way or not do/say something, how do you respond as a grown ass person? I know how I would.

    Haven’t heard ANYTHING about Coons, just seen O’Donnell being mudded by ALOT of people. Sharron Angle has made her own errors, I can’t defend that, but other Repubs are getting shafted.

    Yeah, but look at this:

    * On April 13, 2010, Charles Perry unseated 86-year-old incumbent and fellow Republican Delwin Jones in District 83 and is unopposed in the November 2 general election.

    * John Frullo won the nomination for the District 84 seat vacated by the retiring Carl Isett, also a Republican. Frullo defeated businessman Mark Griffin, a former Texas Tech University regent.

    * Dean Murray, a Long Island businessman, won a special election for a New York State Assembly seat. He is believed to be the first tea party activist to be elected into office.

    * Sharron Angle won the Nevada U.S. Senate GOP primary race and will face Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid in November.

    * Nikki Haley, a 38-year-old Indian-American state representative, beat out three prominent Republican rivals in the South Carolina primary race for Governor capturing 49 percent of the vote. She defeated the second-place finisher, U.S. Representative Gresham Barrett, in a run-off election on June 22.

    * In Maine, Paul LePage won the GOP primary for Governor.

    * In New Jersey, Anna C. Little defeated Republican “establishment” candidate Diane Gooch in the Republican congressional primary for the 6th Congressional District on June 8, 2010. Little will face Democratic Congressman Frank Pallone in November.

    * Rand Paul from the conservative Tea Party movement, won the Super Tuesday GOP Senate primary in Kentucky.

    * In the Republican primary in South Dakota for the At Large Congressional seat, Kristi Noem, a Tea Party approved candidate, defeated incumbent Secretary of State Chris Nelson and state representative Blake Curd.

    * In the South Carolina First Congressional district Republican primary, Tim Scott, who was specifically endorsed by the Tea Party movement,] defeated two “establishment” Republicans with long family histories in the Republican politics, Paul Thurmond (the son of the former South Carolina U.S. Senator Strom Thurmond) and Carroll Campbell, the son of former South Carolina governor Carroll A. Campbell, Jr.

    * In Alaska, attorney Joe Miller defeated current U.S. Senator Lisa Murkowski, in the GOP primary race on August 24, 2010.

    Chuken, everyone knew he was not a strong conservative but more of a moderate and all the pundits continued to say he could not win because 1. He was a Republican, 2, it was Massachusetts and, 3. it was the KENNEDY seat.

Rubio is now crushing Crist as is Paul crushing his opponent in Kentucky. The left spends lots of money trying to label these folks extreme. When they have the money to answer the people find out that they are not extreme but just represent real Americans.

    A movement in which qualifications do not matter, where competency is irrelevant. So long as you can recite the hardcore, party-line rhetoric, irrespective of actual background/results, you are accepted. If you stray, you are not one of them. This ideological purge will be rewarded in 2010, and beaten back to Earth in 2012, assuming it continues until then and they nominate someone “pure”.

    Moderates don’t like extremes/extremists, and moderates decide general elections, especially for President.

    On the plus side, it looks like Jim Inhofe is going to have some competition now for dumbest US Senator. If not O’Donnell, than one of her cohorts.

    I think you’re counting your chickens before they hatch. You might be surprised at just how much the pissed off average Americans will accept to throw incumbents out, and Tea Baggers can use the same You Betcha, folk wisdom that keeps Palin popular.

    The truth is that professional politicians have lied so often about so much that they have all but lost the ability to really speak to average Americans. That has created the opportunity for the Tea Party. The Dems ought to looking for more new honest blood.

  • http://www.thecobraslair.com Cobra

    I won’t even attempt to be sarcastic. I’ll just post the facts about Christine O’Donnell.

    “O’Donnell experienced financial difficulties before, during, and after her 2008 campaign.[4] She was unable to pay the mortgage for her Wilmington house and the mortgage company gained a judgment against her for $90,000; the house was due to be sold at a sheriff’s auction in August 2008 when she sold it the month prior to her campaign’s legal counsel.[4] In 2009, she moved to a townhouse elsewhere in Delaware, where she pays half the rent with campaign contributions because it doubles as her campaign headquarters for her 2010 senate run.[4] Her 2008 campaign ended with $23,000 in debt, and between 2007 and 2009 the Federal Election Commission cited her eight times for failing to supply contributions reports on time.[4] As of 2010, she owes payments to staffers, consultants, and volunteers from the 2008 campaign.[4][23] In 2010, the Internal Revenue Service placed a lien on her for over $11,000 in taxes owed for 2005.[4] O’Donnell noted that the IRS agent handling the matter claimed the agency’s action has been inappropriate.[4] She listed herself as self-employed and said she was doing “odd jobs” to make ends meet.[4]“

    @CosmosDan, ” It’s the old conservative Christian base from the GOP and I agree it probably won’t work.”

    I am not religious, but there is nothing wrong with being Christian and nothing wrong with being a Republican as long as he/she is moderate. I don’t like extremists on either side.

    The “Tea Party” could have been a great thing if it had been organized well, but it seems that it isn’t. That seat in Delaware could have gone to the GOP easily if they had just stepped aside. There are times when they are needed and times when they should just step back.

    Plus, Barry’s policies have caused RECORD foreclosures! She is a victim of BHO!

    I knew Rosie could do it in spite of all the naysayers! I’ve always believed in her and never lost faith and…..huh? What’s that? Oh…….never mind.

    It was no shocker!! Mike Castle’s group knew he was in trouble, they like me, just thought common sense would prevail and the republicans would vote what was best for the state and the nation. They did not. It is interesting, less than 30% of republicans say they think Sarah Palin is leadership capable and yet they are willing to act on her recommendation. It is the republican party and leadership from Reagan forward that created this financial crisis in our country. It is the GOP policies of generous trade agreements and business tax credits that lost so many american jobs to overseas. It is the GOP that lied this nation into war and proceeded to enrich its friends and supporters at a huge cost of american lives and treasure. So, I can understand why republicans are so disillusioned and cynical. But, those of us who pulled off our “revolution” honestly in the election in 2008, have not given up on America. Barack Obama is a stark change from the “white man’s good ole boy network” that dominated Wash, DC for decades. And the Tea Partiers cannot accept the fact that 600 million americans voted for CHANGE. They are scared because for 8 years that is what Bush/Cheney thrived upon. Fear, ignorance and an aire of helplessness gave the GOP a free reign to destroy american financial systems, ruin the middle class, enrich their buddies and poison our system of government with cronyism, misguided earmarks, empty promises of fiscal responsibility and negligent enforcement of our laws. No wonder the tea partiers are angry at the GOP, but I sure wish they didn’t give FOX and other vile pundits the “freedom” to demean our president by upholding bigotry and racism as an acceptable social behavior.

    gar, Stop it. O’Donnell has run for Senate three times in the last five years. It’s the ONLY JOB SHE’S HAD in the past five years. I’m on the RECORD as being against Alvin Greene. I think he’s a right winged plant to give Jim DeMint a layup election, but you’re going to DEFEND this woman just because she’s a Republican?

    I always laugh at this kind of thinking because unless the state is Minnesota it’s a state that once voted for Ronald Reagan. So who are you kidding?

    why minnesota?
