Now, I preface this post with the fact that this is a story heard from someone who heard it from someone. But I like this story so I am running with it. So a Republican Minority Leader (either Boehner or McConnell) was in Delaware in the last two weeks do some quiet fund raising for Mike Castle among the rich Chateau crowd. The Minority Leader’s sales pitch: there is an internal RNC or RSCC polling for this race has Coons within 7 points of Castle.
Now, this could be pure fluff to get the rich people to open their checkbooks for their savior, Mike Castle. But then again, you have to ask yourself why Mike needs more and more money to defeat Chris Coons if the polls were not close. Thus, I think it is true.
