Is Scott Spencer for real? Is the only question floating over the heads of the Delaware Democrats. Not being sure about the ultimate answer to that question – I’ll stick with my original prediction.
Also – In light of Delaware Dem’s post yesterday which revealed that Mike Castle has raised peanuts and is headed for the front porch rocker – it looks like it will be Carney vs. some unknown Republican tomato can.

With the first set of polling numbers in, I’m ready to call these two election contests.
US Senate
Beau Biden vs. Christine O’Donnell
Biden will win in a walk and it will not make the front page. All the intrigue will occur prior to the ballot being set. On the Republican side there will be talk about Charlie Copeland or Gary Simpson stepping up to save the party from utter embarrassment – but they will both figured A) that if Mike Castle can beg off they can too, and B) they really would not be sparing the party much embarrasment when all is said and done.
US House of Representatives
John Carney vs. Mike Castle Protack..? Copeland?
Once Tom Carper endorses Carney it will be all over for Mike Castle. The race will still be close based on Castle’s long history of delivering large novelty checks to volunteer fire companies and Sr. Centers, but his record (and a well run campaign drawing national interest) will finally catch up with him. WHO will take the bullet for the GOP? Copeland has already served in that role and may beg off. That leaves Protack or some Leg Hall fossil who has figures, “what the f*ck.”
