Sometimes I wonder if maybe Tom Carper is encouraging Castle to run for Senate, so they can go on riding Amtrak together for 6 more years. Castle would support Carper’s watered-down no-brainer environmental agenda, Carper would support Castle’s money picture schemes, and together they’d protect big corporations from consumers. I’m not saying Carper would actively campaign for Castle, but in a Castle-Beau race, I wouldn’t count on seeing Carper show his face a whole lot on the campaign trail. Would Carper encourage Beau to run for re-election rather than the Senate? Would you put it past him? And who would run instead?
I know, I’m just indulging in worthless idle speculation – the kind that made Celia Cohen the Delaware celebrity (delebrity?) she is today. Well, that and butt-kissing.
