Do you think that media can portrait anyone as a loon? And I mean, anyone.
Example? Ron Paul.
I dunno, but it sounds like a winner! 
Yes, he’s a pretty good example of a loon – but not a patch on O’Donnell.
You mean the Ron Paul who wants to abolish the Federal Reserve, start issuing letters of marque, and thinks the Civil Rights Act was unconstitutional?
But, seriously, every time someone appears on the scene you can be sure that everything from their past and their shoes will be turned and tumbled in the best journalistic tradition of Enquirer. And, worse than that, people will drink it and swallow it to fulfill the individual need of feeling better for another day. All the while, all those who are FOR masturbation and FOR abortion and FOR ________ (fill-in at your pleasure), exactly those who play up your individual dignities are taking your every dime and then some and drop it on you.
Yes, some are “tea-bagging”, but vast majority of people are getting the “golden shower” and love it.
O’Donnell went on Fox last night and announced she would not do any national news shows. She will attend town meetings and go to every church picnic she can.
Gee , i wonder why she wants to avoid the news shows. Couldn’t be because Palin failed so miserably , could it? Or could it be because she does not have a clue?
This morn her people announced that the fact that she used campaign money for her personal use is fine because she intended to run a couple years later. And the accusations are being made by leftys so it can not possibly be true.
I don’t think she will go back on Maher.
So how about the whole “bearded Marxist” flap for Coons? Does O’Donnell have a chance now that the American public knows Coons once self-labeled (albeit firmly tongue in cheek) as a Marxist?
No, she’s about 16 points behind according to recent polls.
Christine O'Donnell Says God Is Guiding Her Campaign (VIDEO) | HuffPost Latest News It is over. O’Donnell can not lose. God, who you might think is pretty busy, is actually guiding the trajectory of her campaign. How can she lose? The 16 point gap is man’s analysis, not gods.
I still think it will take an extraordinary effort to beat her. Lord knows, she isn’t going to beat herself.
Nice.
To be fair, though, why should she? This is a state election, not a national one.
It’s a national office.
I love her last ad explaining she is not a witch. Also that she is not a politician. Of course she ran for senate twice. She was a media consultant in 2003-4. She was a press secretary for a Concerned Citizen right wing group. She was a consultant for Women for America and a consultant for The Rep. National Comm. Nope she is not a politician. She is you. She has no understanding of the truth.
Wait, she actually ran an ad saying that she’s not a witch? Anyone have a link? Because that just may possibly be the most politically inept thing I’ve ever heard of. The only effect that’s going to have is to associate “Christine O’Donnell” with “witchcraft” in the minds of her supporters (you know, the folks for whom that would be a Very Big Deal).
Knock yourself out. It’s the most ridiculous thing I’ve ever seen. Well, maybe not, but it’s still pretty dumb.
Okay, whatever. I believe you.
Oh, HELL no!! Now I’m offended!
I loved Eugene Robinson’s take on it. The O'Donnell witch trials - POLITICO
For anyone who hasn’t watched the ad, she’s wearing very dark colored clothing, looks extremely pale, and is standing in front of a black backdrop with what appears might be a bubbling cauldron behind her. So he’s not just being mean to her, she does look like she might be a witch in the ad.
30 odd years ago, Richard Nixon felt compelled to explain, “I am not a crook”. Now candidates have to say, “I am not a witch.” We are truly slouching toward Idiocracy.
Personally, I like this take on it.
