Oh how the world changes in an election cycle.
To be honest, I was never really a Christine O’Donnell fan. I met her at the Right Online conference in Las Vegas in 2010, and she was a very nice lady. In my 5 minutes with her however, she didn’t strike me as someone that might be a United States Senator one day. Possibly an unfair measurement, but it was my first impression, and at least in my experience, those observations are usually right. As a result, I never fully understood the frenzy of the supporters of her campaign to unseat Mike Castle in the GOP primary in 2010. Sure Mike Castle was a RINO in the mold of Sen. Snowe and Sen. Collins, but at least it would flip a seat from a Democrat in a blue state to a Republican. Who knows what crazy things Joe Biden might have said about his former seat being taken by an “R” and how it would affect his gaffe track record.
