Primarying Mike Castle

Christine O’Donnell, a longtime conservative activist who took on the thankless task of challenging Sen. Joe Biden (D-Del.) in 2008, is running against Rep. Mike Castle (R-Del.) for the GOP’s Senate nomination. Castle is almost sure to win, O’Donnell almost sure to join the ranks of Tea Party candidates who fell flat, but this demonstrates two things — the conservative movement’s annoyance with being told to settle for some moderate candidates, and the hunger of GOP candidates to try and find some office to run for this year.
