Lots of angst and well, idiotic behavior by some of our own over the GOP primary in Delaware. Whether to go with the change that the GOP and the country needs, or tuck head in arse and go with the status quo. Whether to it’s pushing a true conservative in Christine O’Donnell or accepting less than perfect in RINO Mike Castle.

“In Tuesday’s Delaware primary, the tea party movement may inflict its most devastating wound yet to the Republican establishment. With an assist from Sarah Palin, tea party activists in Delaware are trying to defeat the Republican candidate with the best chance to win Joe Biden’s old Senate seat and nominate instead a candidate Republican leaders say has no chance of winning the general election in November.

Rep. Mike Castle is considered a slam dunk to capture Joe Biden’s old Senate seat. Castle is a pro-abortion rights, pro-gun control Republican who often works with Democrats. Those traits have helped make him the most popular Republican in a state that leans heavily Democratic; Castle has twice been elected governor and was elected as Delaware’s sole representative in the House nine times.

But Castle’s moderate politics have enraged tea party activists and given Christine O’Donnell an opening.

“The Republican Party has lost its way,” O’Donnell said. “They get behind candidates like my opponent who don’t even support the Republican platform, who continue to support the Democrats’ agenda, lock-step-and-barrel.”

Castle hasn’t had a seriously contested primary since 1992. He said he’s confident this time, but acknowledges he could go down.

“This one’s been difficult, not only because I have an opponent with whom I disagree adamantly on a number of issues but is also being funded by the Tea Party Express people, which is totally an out of state circumstance,” Castle said.

The group Tea Party Express, which also supported the primary campaigns of Sharron Angle in Nevada and Joe Miller in Alaska, said it will spend nearly $200,000 boosting O’Donnell’s primary challenge.

This one, however, may be the most bitterly divisive Republican primary yet. Republican leaders say an O’Donnell victory would destroy the state party and pretty much ruin any GOP chances of capturing Biden’s old seat.”

You know the media seems more concerned about this than the GOP party elite. You have to ask, “Why is that”. After all if a O’Donnell win means Democrats keep Joe Biden’s seat then why worry? But if you read the MSM reports on this primary you vision them in sackcloth and ashes. Why?

Could it be that maybe, just maybe, all the prognosticators could be wrong and misjudging the effect that this conservative resurgence is having? Could many just be flat out wrong about whether O’Donnell can pull it off in November.

I’ve argued that we are better off going down on principle, than sacrificing principle just to win. That’s what Democrats do. If some what that as a standard perhaps their in the wrong party.
