Mike Castle Regards Kovach as “viable” versus Carney

Roll Call posted Castle’s (not exactly a ringing) endorsement of Kovach.

At-large | Incumbent: John Carney (D)
1st term (57 percent) | Outlook: Safe Democratic

Carney has a solid grip on the First State’s only House seat despite the fact that he’s only a freshman.

That said, former Rep. Mike Castle (R) told Delaware’s News Journal that New Castle County Council President Tom Kovach (R) is “viable” against Carney if it’s a “Republican year.” National Democrats and Republicans, however, are not focusing closely on this race.

Perhaps it is Castle just being Castle. (That is to say, pals with the incumbent.)

Just for kicks, let’s check out Carper’s blurb.

Senate
Incumbent: Tom Carper (D) | 2nd term (70 percent)
Outlook: Safe Democratic

A year ago, the Delaware Senate race fascinated the political world — and made for “Saturday Night Live” fodder — but the state has returned to its normal non-headline-grabbing status this cycle.

Carper has no substantive opponents in sight and should hold this seat with ease.

Ouch…take that Smooth Like Suede Kevin Wade.
