![]() Rush Limbaugh has whipped Karl Rove and the rest of the GOP establishment's critics of Delaware GOP Senate nominee Christine O'Donnell back into line. But those who previously worked for her are refusing to stand down. Kristin Murray, who left her position in the state party to serve as one of several campaign managers for O’Donnell during that race, said warning bells went off in June 2008 when the two were discussing cell phone plans. "She told me that she thought Joe Biden tapped her phone line," she said. Alan Moore, who worked on press releases and policy statements for two months during the 2008 bid and now helps run the conservative site Townhall.com, said his conversations with the candidate led him to believe "her priorities were completely out of whack." Moore, who first decided to volunteer for O'Donnell after hearing about her at a meeting of college Republicans, said that at one point, O'Donnell talked to him about winning a lucrative television contract with CNN or Fox News Channel. "I informed her that most media organizations prohibit their employees from running for office. She didn't seem to understand and was more interested in getting a contract," he recalled. "She was more concerned about getting a TV deal than winning office." As the campaign entered the summer season, staff was instructed to compile a 10-page document examining how the distribution of tens of thousands of two-ounce suntan lotion packets could shake up the race, according to several members of O'Donnell's 2008 team. O'Donnell's idea: To affix a clever slogan to packets that read: "Don't Get Burned By Higher Taxes. Vote Christine O'Donnell 2008" and distribute them at local parades [...] "It was an irresponsible idea," said David Keegan, who served as O'Donnell's financial officer. “And half the people in the street thought she was throwing condoms out of the truck.” The suntan lotion strategy wasn’t the only thing that captured O’Donnell’s attention that summer. Several former aides said that as the Republican National Convention approached, O'Donnell became convinced she could land the coveted role as keynote speaker — the speech was ultimately delivered by former New York City mayor and presidential candidate Rudy Giuliani — and booked an expensive trip to St. Paul on that premise. She's doing the Democrats a great favor. I think she may be a Dem operative parading as a lunatic Christian who abhors masturbation. Just loony enough to attract other member of the American Taliban. |

Principled folks who are nuts can rationalize murder. Principles? Bertbrain thinks those are "principles"? BTW, Ms. O'Donnell is the perfect GOP candidate: Christine O'Donnell: Of Mice and Men * By Steven Andrew, Austin Science Policy Examiner I don't know whether to laugh or make plans to move to another country. Christine O'Donnell, the Tea Party Candidate for Senator in Delaware, seems to think mad scientists have developed mice with, and I quote, "Fully functioning human brains." Seriously, not making this up. Via Talking Points Memo: O'Donnell -- They are -- they are doing that here in the United States. American scientific companies are cross-breeding humans and animals and coming up with mice with fully functioning human brains. So they're already into this experiment. The article notes it's possible O'Donnell misread, ahem, an article in 2005 about scientists who were able to promote the growth of human neural stem cells in mice. Given her abysmal grasp of basic science I suppose that's plausible. For what it's worth, a fully functioning human brain (And most non functional ones for that matter), assuming we limit ourselves only to the cerebrum where the higher functions associated with mammals and problem solving are located, is a cool 1000 cc's in volume. That's roughly as big as a medium-sized grapefruit. Other than the character pictured above courtesy of the Wiki and the Pinky and the Brain cartoon series, I don't know of any mice, rat, or gerbil who could cram that structure into their normally 1 cubic centimeter volume skull, but maybe O'Donnell knows something I don't. Outside of that not sure what else to add. It's well known this fruitcake O'Donnell is against stem cell research. It turns out she's one of those incredibly rare small government conservatives who wants the gubmint the hell out of people's private business and back in rape victim's wombs forcing them to have the rapists' children. But this is just plain whacked. This lady is a clown. As a Senator she terrifies me, but for a science writer and occasional satirist, she's solid gold. - - - Another woman in the Palin-Bachmann mold. And I do mean mold. But BAR thinks she has principles. |

Imagine that some one with principles. That admitted to hanging out with witches and whose first date was at a satanic alter. Yep, that's the kind of person we want in the Senate, you betcha. |
