Welcome to your Thursday open thread. It’s day 2 of the O’pocalypse and now the shock has worn off. Now we’re in the embarrassment stage. It’s nice to have Delaware in the spotlight, but not for nominating an idiot for a U.S. Senate seat.
If you have some time tonight, attend the first post-primary candidate forum.

US Senator, US Representative, Attorney General,

Apparently the place will be crawling with press. Miss Fancy-Pants-Too-Big-For-Her-Britches is scheduled to attend but may not because she hasn’t gotten the questions in advance (and she could face a hostile crowd).
Democratic county executive Chris Coons’ campaign says he will attend a candidates’ forum for Senate nominees. It was unclear if his opponent, Christine O’Donnell, will also appear at the event.
The forum is scheduled for Thursday at 7 p.m. at the Bernard and Ruth Siegel Jewish Community Center in Wilmington.
Coons’ campaign said in an e-mail that O’Donnell had confirmed her appearance at the forum. However, O’Donnell’s spokeswoman would not confirm that the Republican would attend.
I will try to attend. Anyone else planning on going?
