Fundamentals In Delaware Point Toward O'Donnell Victory

From CIR and Floyd Reports:

Fundamentals point toward O’Donnell’s victory: Delaware has been boiling for a year


By Coach Collins, on September 16th, 2010





By Kevin “Coach” Collins



The name Joe Booth might not mean anything outside of the Delaware’s 19th State Senatorial district, but he is an important part of the surge that will bring Christine O’Donnell to victory in November.



The fact that Senator Booth is in office is in many ways just as surprising as O’Donnell’s win will be on Election Day.



In 2009 the Democrat Senate Pro Tem of the Delaware Senate Thurman Adams died. He had been in office for forty years. EVERYONE in Delaware expected that Thurman’s daughter Polly Mervine would be crowned as his successor. Why not? She is Thurman’s daughter, she is of course a Democrat, and she had 2 ½ times as much money as her Republican challenger.



In spite of all of these factors Joe Booth crushed Mervine beating her by 30 points!



If this was an isolated blip on the screen, why would Beau Biden the son of Joe Biden, a Marine office who served in Iraq and is the Delaware Attorney General pass on this race? Believe what you want but I believe it is because Beau KNOWS.



Beau KNOWS what is in the air in Delaware and he has decided to wait it out.



Republican energy/ enthusiasm gap/ Independent voters/generic polls



The “experts” predicted the Republican turnout on Tuesday would be 36,559 or 20% at best. The real number was 57,582 which represent 31% of eligible Republicans. This proves the growing trend of Republican enthusiasm has not slowed down.



The level of enthusiasm among Republican voters is extremely high. A Gallup poll recently found that Republican voters and Independents who lean Republican average a 59% “enthusiastic to vote” level while Democrats are at just 44% on the same question. Gallup has never recorded a bigger differential.



To believe Christine O’Donnell will somehow not benefit from this huge gap is to say Delaware is somehow not like the rest of America. But clearly anyone who has been there knows Delaware is “heart of America” territory!



There are nearly 35,000 Independents in Delaware who did not have a say in this primary. Every indication is that they too will be reflective of national generic ballots



Generic polls of likely voters, done by a number of firms show, Republicans leading by margins of between 9% to 13%.



The cherries on top of it all



In May O’Donnell’s Democrat opponent Chris Coons referred to himself as a “bearded Marxist” in his college days and Obama’s approval rating in Delaware is 46% in spite of the large majority of Democrats on its registration rolls.



When the smoke cleared Tuesday some people looked at O’Donnell’s victory and wondered why there was ever any doubts. When O’Donnell wins in November those same people will be asking the same question.


And, from Glenn Beck:

Establishment still freaking out

GLENN: Okay. So here's the thing. Politico is doing a story today on how the aides of O'Donnell are coming out against her. These are the aides that tried to help her on her failed campaign in 2008, and she's just unelectable. You know what the big did you guys read it today? Do you know what the big revelation is from the aides that have turned on her?



PAT: No.



GLENN: She was very irresponsible. She wanted to hand out in the summer campaign, I guess in 2008 she wanted to hand out sunscreen and print on it, don't get burned by higher taxes.



STU: No!



GLENN: Vote O'Donnell.



STU: No, no, she did not.



GLENN: And they said that was ridiculous.



PAT: Oh, how irresponsible.



GLENN: People thought they were throwing out condoms into the crowd and it was awful.



PAT: What?



STU: What a terrible woman.



GLENN: Yeah.



STU: What a horrible, horrible human being.



GLENN: You know, disregard the fact the person she's running against is a self proclaimed Marxist.



PAT: Glenn, you've forgotten about, you've forgotten on her stance on lying. She doesn't believe people should lie, either. That's ridiculous.



GLENN: Everybody has to lie.



PAT: You have to lie.



STU: And you heard about the mouse brain gaffe obviously from that they've just uncovered.



GLENN: No.



STU: Oh, yeah. She was on a show, I think it was O'Reilly actually.



GLENN: Guys, hang on just a second. Her competitor is a self proclaimed Marxist.



STU: Yeah, yeah. Whatever, whatever. So she's on O'Reilly and she's talking about cloning and stem cell research.



GLENN: Okay, but wait. He's a marks IT.



STU: I'm trying to get through this story. Can you hold on?



PAT: Why is it you have to shout down those who are



GLENN: I think the mouse brains are saying, he's a Marxist.



PAT: He is shouting us down.



STU: This is unbelievable. I'm just trying to get this truth out about Christine O'Donnell.



GLENN: Proceed.



STU: She was on the air on O'Reilly and she said that scientists in the United States are putting human brains into mice. And the truth is they were only putting human brain cells into mice. What? This is a scandal.



PAT: She's unelectable.



STU: This is a scandal.



PAT: She's unelectable.



GLENN: Guys, he's a Marxist.



STU: And you heard the sunscreen thing, right? Did you hear about the sunscreen thing?



PAT: Where they were throwing sunscreen?



GLENN: I'm the one who brought that up. I can't believe a Marxist



PAT: That could have been a condom. I mean, it wasn't but it could have been.



STU: Right.



PAT: I mean, what an idiot.



GLENN: This is incredible. Now, listen. I was thinking about this last night. I was reading my scriptures and it came to me last night.



PAT: Hallelujah.



GLENN: Thank you. Thank you, Brother Pat. You are an ordained minister, are you not?



PAT: Praise Jesus.



GLENN: You are.



PAT: I am.



GLENN: I am an ordained minister, too, at the Church of



PAT: Hallelujah.



GLENN: Church of Universal Life, Modesto, California.



PAT: Hallelujah.



GLENN: Now, here's the thing. Last night I was thinking we need a buddy system. We need a system where everyone is responsible for waking one person up. You are responsible for waking one person up, Democrat, Republican, independent, and getting them to the polls, one person. This election needs to be a buddy system. You make sure that somebody's like, oh, you know what? It's not going to make a difference. You wake them up and you get them to the polls.



PAT: I like what you said



GLENN: Stu?



PAT: a couple of days ago: Get to the polls.



STU: Pat, I'm going to need you to get to the polls.



PAT: Natasha?



GLENN: Hang on just a second. First of all, the only one so far I mean, I need to drive you to the polls, because you are irresponsible.



STU: No, I'm not. I'm



GLENN: You could be sidetracked by you could be sidetracked by



STU: By election coverage that we'll be doing on Insider Extreme? Yes, I will not be I'll have to vote in advance because of that.



GLENN: You know what we need? We need to get our absentee ballots.



STU: It's very important.



GLENN: Because we usually don't get at least I have to vote absentee because I can never get home.



STU: Right. We're always doing coverage in New York, which none of us actually live in the state.



GLENN: And hang on. Let's just relish that for a second.



PAT: All that wealth, somewhere else.



GLENN: (Laughing).



STU: (Laughing).



GLENN: All right. So I think what we have to do, I think we have to start a campaign, you know, amongst ourselves that it is bring a friend to vote, but bring the friend that wasn't going to go out and vote. If this isn't the largest turnout for a midterm election, we've done something wrong. No, no, no. We as a nation haven't learned our lesson.



STU: That's your standard, the highest ever? Just the highest ever's all you need?



STU: I think so.



GLENN: One of the highest ever. I think it should be.



PAT: Right. I think it should be. If this isn't, what would ever be? If you're not fired up for this election, for this cause, for



GLENN: The only thing that would



PAT: What would fire you up?



GLENN: The only thing that would change that would be you're not thrilled with the people, but I got news for ya. You're never going to be thrilled with the people you're going to vote for. You know, you do have to look at each candidate and say, hmmm, is it the one who said the human brains in the mice instead of human brain cells into mice? Or the Marxist?



PAT: Yeah.



GLENN: If you can't choose between those two and you're not motivated, if there isn't, like, I cannot live in a world where someone says human brains into mice and what they really meant was human brain cells, and did you hear the sunscreen thing? If you aren't motivated to go out and stop that crazy woman from getting in, or let's just say you think Marxists shouldn't be running our country



PAT: Bigot. Bigot.



STU: (Laughing).



GLENN: If you just think that maybe a Marxist shouldn't be we don't need another Marxist to happy us with the capitalist system, what will motivate you?



PAT: Yeah.



GLENN: What will motivate you?



PAT: And we've always said, I've said for years that the time for, you know, to find the right candidate to work all this out so you don't have to be faced with the lesser of two evils in the general election is the primary season. Well, we went through that. We just kicked out eight incumbent or establishment chosen candidates.



GLENN: Right.



PAT: And just booted them out of the system for more conservative people.



GLENN: And Democrats



PAT: Here's your chance.



GLENN: And Democrats, what has been happening in your party is they have moved farther left. You've got did I mention that there's a Marxist running who is Harry Reid's pet?



STU: Oh, the guy who's running against the mouse brain lady? The mouse brain sunscreen lady that I can't believe you know, she's completely unelectable, Pat.



PAT: She should lie under any circumstance and if



STU: Yeah



PAT: She will not lie. She was harboring Jews.



STU: Unbelievable.



PAT: She will not lie to the Nazis. She would rather have Jews.



GLENN: Wait, wait, wait.



PAT: I cannot believe it.



GLENN: Wait.



STU: I'm sorry?



GLENN: Her competitor is a Marxist.



PAT: Did you hear the sunscreen thing?



GLENN: And



PAT: Are you listening to us? Are you listening to us?



GLENN: And Harry Reid's pet.



STU: But she wants



GLENN: My gosh, you're a hate monger.



STU: She once said she lost a county



GLENN: Yeah.



STU: When she well, she won a county when she didn't win it.



PAT: Not only that, why does Glenn Beck hate all pets? Why do you hate all pets?



GLENN: You ready for this?



PAT: Mr. Pet hate monger.



GLENN: I'm about ready to be on the right side of this one for the liberals. Who are you to own another being and call it your pet?
