Though she has been considered a long shot in her GOP primary race against Rep. Mike Castle, a recent Rasmussen survey shows Christine O’Donnell's poll numbers increasing, while Castle's are in decline.
O'Donnell told Politico earlier this week that she has contacted Gov. Palin's camp and requested an endorsement from the first woman to be nominated for vice president by the Republican Party. She already has the backing of Susan B. Anthony List, the pro-life organization which gave birth to Team Sarah, and CWPAC, the political action committee of Concerned Women of America. O'Donnell has also been endorsed by bloggers Erick Erickson at RedState and Pamela Geller of Atlas Shrugs.
We have to believe that Gov. Palin is seriously considering O'Donnell's request for an endorsement. Her positions on the issues appear to be nearly identical to those of the former Alaska governor, as we pointed out here last month. Castle, on the other hand, opposes the repeal of ObamaCare, and voted as a Congressman for Cap-and-Trade and the the $700 billion TARP bill. Like Obama and Biden in the Senate, Castle voted against the troop surge for Iraq in the House.
It's Biden's seat in the Senate, with four years left on an unexpired term, that that both O'Donnell and Castle are vying for. Polling shows either Republican would give Democrat Chris Coons a good run for his money, but Castle is the very picture of an establishment Republican, while O'Donnell is a Reagan/Palin conservative.
Ed Morrissey has a video of the Right Online interview with Christine O’Donnell posted at Hot Air. It's video worth watching. And Stacy McCain weights in here. Patience, Stacy, patience.

Sarah Palin?
*
She ran against Joe Biden, but lost the election.
She's a political commentator who has appeared on Fox News.
She is a Bible-believing Christian.
She opposes granting terrorists the same Constitutional rights that the founders intended for American citizens.
She believes our nation was founded on the core values of faith, family and freedom and will fight to defend those values.
She believes that parents should make the important decisions about the education of their children.
She believes that it is is immoral to saddle our grandchildren with trillions of dollars of debt, and she wants to take the burden of taxes off of the backs of American families and businesses. She believes that this will help create jobs.
She is fiercely pro-life.
She favors market-based solutions to our energy problems to keep competition high and prices low.
She believes the federal government's wasteful spending is eroding our freedom, destroying our economy and ceding our sovereignty to foreign debt-holders like China.
She opposes ObamaCare, and believes that real solutions to our health care mess are less government interference in the doctor/patient relationship, more competition in the insurance market and more choice for families about their health care plan.
She is a strong strong supporter of Second Amendment rights and has earned an “A” rating from the NRA.
Sounds just like Sarah Palin, doesn't it?
In this particular case, however, we just described Christine O’Donnell, who is opposing GOP Lite candidate Mike Castle in Delaware for the Republican Party nomination in the race to capture the seat once held by Biden in the U.S. Senate.
Her website is here. Take a look.
