Even Fox thinks she is beneath them. That sets a very low bar and as a tea bagger she still can not reach it. ---

NO, Fox made a point that she would not offer her one. I have not heard her reaction. I wait to see if she gets speaking engagements or TV talk show time. She may be yesterday’s news already. ---

> [@Merijeek](#): > > It’s something potentially bad about some Rightard - naturally it has to be a Democrat fabrication. Or, possibly, something created by the George Soros Media. > > -Joe How prescient. "O’Donnell, the tea party favorite who scored a surprise primary victory before losing in the general election, suggested the accusations are driven by political establishments on the right and left, including Joe Biden. He represented Delaware in the Senate for decades before he became vice president. “You have to look at this whole thug-politic tactic for what it is,” she said Thursday." I notice your signed off as “Joe” as well. Is it a conspiracy? LOL! ---

I yield to no one in my contempt for Odonnell but is there really much to be gained by kicking her lifeless corpse around? The woman is politically dead, let’s just throw the tattered carcass in a hole, celebrate and move on. ---

The woman is politically dead, let’s just throw the tattered carcass in a hole, celebrate and move on. Yes, because there is no such thing as “politically dead” in the long run. ---
