If you were waiting for a local news outfit to get a reaction from Mike Castle regarding Christine O’Donnell’s suddenly aggressive and energetic campaign, you might be waiting a while.
This is the best Politico’s David Cantanese could get out of Silent Mike:
“A Castle campaign spokeswoman did not return a request for comment.”
And yet…the DE GOP has some words for O’Donnell, and those words are…”Yeah, right..and Whatever”
Delaware’s state GOP chairman dismissed O’Donnell as a perennial candidate overburdened with baggage who is completely unelectable.
“She has debts she hasn’t paid from the last race. She sold her house that was in foreclosure so she could run for Senate. She has a long history of not paying bills. She sued a conservative think tank that dismissed her. She’s a candidate who runs for office that unfortunately lives off the proceeds. You just don’t have a candidate in Christine O’Donnell that is considered credible. I don’t know if I’ve ever seen a candidate with such a paper trail,” said state party chair Tom Ross.
So the party line is that O’Donnell is a joke. I’m sure they are trying to let Sarah Palin in on that information about now.
