Barring a scandal, is the Delaware Senate race over?

[sg0508]

The lead for Castle has been around 11 pts consistently, which is far less than some of us would have predicted.  The primary can't be helping either and that could create a problem with the right.

It seems like the door is open for Coons to possibly gain some momentum and given how small the state is, a grassroots campaign, similar to what Whitehouse did in 2006 in RI could be a formula for success. 

You just figure a guy like Castle who is moderate and who has been in DE politics for over 20 years would have put this one away already. 

The last senate race won by the GOP was in '94 with Bill Roth winning just 55%.  That was one of the few races the democrats went after that year (WA and VT were the others).
