Christine O’Donnell wins in Delaware … now what?

Published



Congratulations to tea party favorite Christine O’Donnell who won the Republican primary in Delaware on Tuesday, trumping Republican candidate Mike Castle whom many had deemed the “establishment” choice. Leading into the primary, supporters of both appeared on the airwaves to defend their candidates and, after her win, O’Donnell made the rounds of many Wednesday morning news shows.

The Washington Examiner’s chief political correspondent Byron York was with O’Donnell for the announcement of her 53% to 47% win over Castle. York noted that she gave the GOP a thumpin’, and wrote, “… conservatives feel enormously empowered by what they have accomplished, and they are important to the Republican party’s fortunes this November and beyond.”
