Delaware Democrats Nominate Chris Coons “The Bearded Marxist” For Senate
Posted on September 15, 2010 by Riley
So, you think Republicans made a mistake with nominating Christine O’Donnell as their U.S. Senate candidate? Well, get a load of who the Democrats nominated.
Republicans say they are likely to highlight an article that Mr. Coons wrote while in college titled “Chris Coons: The Bearded Marxist.”
The article, written in 1985 when Mr. Coons was 21, describes how a semester in Kenya made him question his faith in the U.S. and the capitalist system and converted him from being a Republican to a Democrat.
A self-described Marxist with Kenyan ties who questions the U.S. and the capitalist system? Why does that sound vaguely familiar?
What about his more recent record in elected office?
Under his reign, the county council has raised property taxes three times in the last three years—by 25% last year alone.

I really hope the voters go for Christine O'Donnell. This guy doesn't sound like someone we need to get us out of this mess. We want to be rid of Harry Reid so why do we want his "pet"?
O'Donnell is for lower taxes and smaller government. Coons is the opposite.
