Here’s the Fox News summary of Coons’ MSNBC interview:
“I‘m no one’s pet, and I intend to be an independent voice in the U.S. Senate,” Delaware’s Democratic Senate candidate, Chris Coons, declared emphatically on MSNBC Wednesday, referencing a recent utterance from the gaffe-prone Majority Leader Harry Reid who called the New Castle County executive “my pet.“ ”That was a very unfortunate choice of words by Senator Reid,“ Coons told ”The Daily Rundown’s” Chuck Todd.

Posted on September 22, 2010 at 3:24pmThanks so much for the post. Van Jones’ words of wisdom for radicals. Everything these people do is a hidden agenda. If they like Communism so much, why do they hide and deny what they are? Because the American people want none of this. But, what cowards they are. WE WILL NEVER COMPLY.

Posted on September 22, 2010 at 11:56amIf Obama can convince people that he’s not socialist despite finding God through Rev. Wright and surrounding himself with socialists from his teenage years even up to now in the White House, I guess anything is possible with the American public.

It’s not hard to see the fiscal future of our country he will vote for as a senator. http://www2.nccde.org/finance/Documents/MonthlyFiscalReportDocuments/GeneralFundCashFlowProjections0810.pdf
The -17.1 in Available Financial Reserves by 2015 from 73.5 when he came into office speaks volumes. Along with Property taxes where at 70 million and are now at 106.1 for 2010.

Posted on September 22, 2010 at 3:24pmDelaware residents, PLEASE, this year it’s time to look to your heat and put the welfare of our nation above ANY ideology. Do what will turn this country around and put it on a path back to freedom and personal responsibility once again. That does not include sending a self-proclaimed Marxist to the Senate. Turn to God for the answer. …rf

Posted on September 22, 2010 at 7:54pmThe people of the State of Deleware have always voted Democratic. This stems from when the Democrats were more dedicated to the welfare of the good old USA than this current crop of sell us out to the rest of the world Democrats in Washington now.
Lately, they seem to have missed the mark.They elected good old “Foot in the Mouth” Biden.
I truly think that the residents of Delaware have seen enough of Marxists and political clowns.They are not going to support another politician with the bow down to Obama complex. I think they are too smart for that. The Delawawe residents also are smart enough to realize that they have everything to lose, their homes, their jobs and most of all their freedom, if America defaults on its loans and is taken over by China, Saudi Arabia and the other nations to which we are indebted.
No, I believe that the voters of the great State of Deleware will look to what’s right for America. As a state involved with the signing of the Declaration of Independance and the Constitution, Delaware ‘s voters know that the present road will sooner or later lead to tyranny. They will not stand for that!
