Delaware Corrupt Bastards 'Forget' to Air O'Donnell Campaign Ad Video

Sarah Palin referred to Alaskan reporters as "corrupt bastards" after plotting to portray Joe Miller's followers in a bad light. Today we know "corrupt bastards are spread from Alaska to Delaware. Christine O'Donnell. The O'Donnell campaign paid for two local ads, which the TV station "forgot" to air. View this very effective video ad below. I can see why the corrupt bastards in the press didn't want this ad to get out. It is one of the most effective campaign ads I've seen.

Chris Coons Bearded Marxist Sued Three Times: Employees Supporting Coon's Opponent Fired

Christine O'Donnell's Democrat opponent, Chris Coons - The Bearded Marxist was sued by a Dennis Parkstone, a New Castle Delaware county employee in 2007, police Corporal Trinidad Navarro and the brother of Sherry Freebery who was the brother of Coons opponent in 2004, Sherry Freebery.

Chris Coons Sued by County Employees for Partisan Firing

Parkstone said he was fired by New Castle County, where Coons was the County Executive, after expressing support for Coons opponent Sherry Freebery. Navarro said he was passed-over for promotion due to his support for a police chief not appointed by Coons, and Freebery's brother said he supported his sister, Sherry, and lost his job as General Manager of Special Services for New Castle County.

Thug politics in Delaware, mimicking the White House. Remember Inspector General Gerald Walpin's firing. Come on Delaware! Christine O'Donnell has to be the better choice for the U.S. Senate. Coons can't even name the five freedoms guaranteed by the First Amendment.

If you are not up-to-speed on Chris Coon's Republican opponent Christine O'Donnell for the U.S. Senate from Delaware, this is a good place to start.

Thanks to Gateway Pundit and WBOC did the digging.

Christine O'Donnell Palin-Endorsed!

Sarah Palin has endorsed Christine O'Donnell for the Senate in Delaware. Sitting Republican Congressman Mike Castle is trying to move up to the Senate and occupy the seat left behind when Joe Biden move up to the Veep office. Castle is a Republican-in-Name Only (a RINO) and scores so far Left on the Gov Track meter that we have to ask, how much Republican does this man have in? Not much. Castle voted for the DISCLOSE Act and the failed cap-and-trade. Sarah's endorsement came on Sean Hannity's program today.

Christine O'Donnell and Sarah Palin

Here are the dynamics of this race, all of which just changed drastically. Castle is running double digits ahead of his Democrat opponent, and O'Donnell is running double digits behind the Democrat. Will Delaware's voters want a true conservative sitting in the seat vacated by Joe Biden?

O'Donnell ran against Biden in 2008 and there are some stories about that. Obviously, Sarah does not believe Christine's detractors. From Christine:

They knock on the door at all hours of the night. They’re hiding in the bushes when I’m at candidate forums. In 2008 they broke into my home. They vandalized my home. They wrote nasty notes on my front door, on my front porch. They jeopardized my safety. They did the same thing to our campaign office. They broke into our campaign office. They vandalized our campaign office. They stole files. My campaign signs that had my picture—they put a spear in my mouth poked out my eyes, and cut out the part of my heart, and wrote nasty names all over those campaign signs. 

There has a small war between conservative bloggers about Christine O'Donnell's candidacy. With very little momentum in her campaign, some are asking why voters would want to risk losing a Republican, even it is Mike Castle, by voting for O'Donnell, giving way to a Democrat win. Recently, The Other McCain had a lot to say about it (and has supported Christine from day one) reminding us that she is pro-life and Castle is not. I will remind, once more, that Castle voted for the despicable DISCLOSE Act and the Obama failed cap-and-trade. Having said that, New Jersey Governor Chris Christie endorsed Castle. Read The Other McCain on O'Donnell and be sure to browse through the archives.

Chris Christie Mike Castle: Christie Endorses RINO Castle: Good Faith Pledge in Order?

So, there are few problems here: Senator Mike Castle is a RINO - yes, he is. He voted for cap and trade and he voted for the DISCLOSE Act. What more do you need to hang the RINO sign around his neck? Those watching the race closely, however, believe Christine O'Donnell is a conservative, but...some of those watching closely do not believe O'Donnell can beat the Democrat opponent. I suggest Republican House leadership secure a good faith pledge from Castle that he will never, ever again vote to silence us with the DISCLOSE Act, or any similar legislation, and never, ever vote for a Democrat version of cap and trade. And do this before the election. Doing so defines the meaning of "House Leadership." But please read on, there are other considerations.

Mike Castle's political leanings

From Ace:

I do not know why it is that Mike Castle is running 12 points or so ahead of his Democratic rival. It could be partly due to his despised RINOism, of course. And it's also due to personal characteristics which he alone possesses and cannot be transferred to O'Donnell -- like, as the state's only at-large Representative (the state has only one Rep.), he knows everyone in the state, has campaigned statewide nine times before. For whatever reason, the voters trust him, seem to like him. (Well, "like" as much as one can like a politician.)

For whatever reason, they've decided he's okay by them. And preferable to a Democrat. And so he polls 10-12 points ahead.

Meanwhile the latest Rasmussen poll puts O'Donnell ten points behind Coons.

And on that point, I ask, where is the plausible pathway to candidate growth? What is the realistic plan for getting O'Donnell up from ten points down to at least even?

Castle's Republican challenger is Christine O'Donnell. She is not a politician, but is a conservative activist. We have non-political activists running across the country, and that is a good thing, but this one is particularly problematic.

The other side of this is the GOP Fossils who are trying to denigrate O'Donnell and force her to drop out of the race, and are apparently paying people to "stalk her." From TheOtherMcCain:

Let me repeat the question I asked over the weekend: How many pro-life voters in Delaware? Castle’s pro-choice, O’Connell’s pro-life, and that life-or-death issue ought to be decisive in a GOP primary.

If the bottom line is O'Donnell cannot win (and polls are not always the last word) let's tell the Republican leadership to demand a few promises from Mike Castle or they will move to O'Donnell's camp.

In the video below, Christie says a vote for Castle is a vote for "smaller, smarter government." What? Even GovTrack shows Castle only barely Republican (see the graphic above). See Castle's past voting record, which sides with Democrats far more often than with Republicans. However GovTrack also says in the current Congress he has voted with Republicans 87.3% of the time. Sigh. I can't tell you how  comfortable it is to live in a Conservative, very red state. See the Christie endorsement below.

Nate Henn Dies in Terrorist Bombing Uganda: Nate Henn Invisible Children

An American man, Nate Henn, has died in the Uganada terrorist bombing during a World Cup watch party. The bombers are believed to be members of Somalian al-Shabab, an al-Qaeda-aligned organization. Three bombs went off within a 50 minute period killing 64, and maybe a dozen more.

Nate Henn

Mr. Henn, 25, was a resident of Delaware and a volunteer for Invisible Children, an organization trying to free "child soldiers" in African wars, and also trying to tell their stories through film.

The radical Islamist movement al-Shabab which has implemented sharia law across large swathes of Somalia, said today the attacks were revenge for the presence of Ugandan soldiers in the Somali capital. "We are not afraid to say that we are behind the Uganda attack," al-Shabab spokesman Sheik Ali Mohamud Rage said in a phone interview from the Somali capital Mogadishu. "We have made the [Ugandan] government to feel the pain that they are causing us in Mogadishu."

 Al-Shabab says they are seeking revenge for Uganda's participation in peacekeeping missions in Somalia, and Ugandan officials quote Sheik Yusuf Sheik Issa, a Shabab commander saying "Uganda is a major infidel country supporting the so-called government of Somalia."

Henn was at the Kyandondo Rugby Club bombings along with 3,000 others, when the second or third of the three blasts exploded. Mr. Henn had been with Invisible Children for about 18 months, arriving in Uganda on July 3rd, 2010.

Despite being in Uganda for such a short time, Henn had won the admiration of his pupils, many of who had been abducted as children and enlisted in the rebel Ugandan group, the Lord's Resistance Army. 

"Our Ugandan students ... fell in love with Nate's wit, strength, character and steadfast friendship," the eulogy read. "They gave him the Acholi name 'Oteka,' which means 'The Strong One.'"

Several Ugandan students were with Henn at the time of the explosion. It is not known if any died in the attack.

Six members of a church group from Pennsylvania, were wounded in the blast in the Ethiopian restaurant. One of the wounded was 16-year-old  American Emily Kerstetter. Three Ugandan members of the group were killed.

Mr. Henn was an alum of University of Delaware.

RINO Mike Castle Votes for DISCLOSE Act: Christine O'Donnell Would Not Vote for DISCLOSE

RINO Congressman Mike Castle (R-DE) voted for the House DISCLOSE Act. Castle just took away portions of your free speech and mine. He is challenged by a true conservative, Christine O'Donnell in the November election. Don't forget this face. With our help, she will be Delaware's U.S. Senate replacement for Joe Biden.

Christine O'Donnell for Senate in Delaware

The DISCLOSE Act (Democracy is Strengthened by Casting Light on Spending in Elections), otherwise known as H.R. 5175 passed the House yesterday with help from two Republicans, Delaware's Mike Castle and Louisiana's Joseph Cao. DISCLOSE will be put into effect within 30 days - even before the FEC can write the guidelines. Democrats see this imperative to stifling our free speech - and especially the free speech of grassroots organizations, for example...TEA Parties, and here's another example:

Remember the Citizens United decision by the Supreme Court which restored First Amendment rights to corporations, saying the government as no right to regulate free speech? The DISCLOSE Act, if implemented, is seen as a first step to an end run against that Supreme Court decision. Listen to a CATO Institute podcast about this important issue here.


Read more about DISCLOSE here, and in November don't forget that Castle and Cao took a swipe at your free speech, and smack them right back with a vote for Christine O'Donnell for Joe Biden's senate seat. Find in-depth insight into RINO Castle and Ms. O'Donnell at The Other McCain.
