Christine O’Donnell comes to Washington

Christine O’Donnell, the surprise victor of Delaware’s GOP Senate primary, met with National Republican Senatorial Committee Chairman John Cornyn (R-Tex.) Wednesday for the first time since beating the GOP establishment candidate Mike Castle last month.

The meeting represents the uncomfortable embrace Washington Republicans must deal with now in the Delaware Senate race after vigorously backing O’Donnell’s opponent, Rep.
