Maybe…just maybe Mike Castle is not simply weak, maybe he is much weaker this time than anyone expects.
Lord knows his cheerleading for the botched bail out, his term on the house banking committee and all the money he has taken from the very industry he was supposed to be overseeing don’t exactly pain a pretty picture.

John McCain might be pretty confident about winning Texas, but it looks like he has lost the wealthiest part of Dallas — which is to say, the Park Cities. Texas Rep. Dan Branch commissioned a Baselice & Associates poll of his district the week after the Republican convention, and what he found was surprising. While McCain was enjoying a national “Palin bounce,” District 108 wasn’t feeling the love. Branch’s poll found that 47 percent of voters planned to pull the lever for Obama, only 45 percent for McCain.
