Forty million words have been written in the last eighteen hours about Christine O'Donnell's upset of soft core moderate Mike Castle in the Delaware Senate primary last night.
Among those words I have not seen from any Republican establishment figures is a call for other establishment figures to suck it up and support the party nominee.
Locally we have been treated to a parade of establishment types ranging from Mike Reagan to Haley Barbour, each demanding that fiscal, constitutional and social conservatives (about 80% of the party) need to pipe down, follow the leadership and stand in line to support the liberal top of our ticket here in Iowa. Of course, such demands beg the ultimate question of why?
