I wanna go!! President Obama and VP Joe Biden will be in Delaware next Friday campaigning. Some say why go to Delaware when Chris Coons is leading in the polls, he is double digits ahead of Christine O'Donnell. Well, Delaware LOVES Obama and Biden! O'Donnell is on the defensive with her ad "I'm not a witch", so sad, so very sad for her because she really is a witch ;-). OKAY, she's not a witch, but she will never be a Senator, thank God...
So why are the President and VP spending time in DE? A party strategist says this..
"Elevating O'Donnell as the face of the Tea Party isn't a bad thing," said the strategist. "Think about the tightening [in the polls] after she got nominated. The money that started rolling in. She's Sarah Palin. She causes people to pause and say, 'Whoa, this is who the Tea Party is. Do we really want to hand them the keys to the kingdom'."
While one prominent Democrat warned, "If you end up making women the object of ridicule it could end up a big mistake." This is not what the president intends on doing. O'Donnell has campaigned on a tea party platform and Pres.Obama is correct in making O'Donnell the face of the tea party. The women in Delaware, and around the country, do not want that kind of woman representing them in the Senate. Her views are not mainstream, but so radical as to take women's rights back to the 1800's!
From the NY Daily News...
Christine O'Donnell wants to know secrets.
The Tea-Party favorite and Republican Senate nominee said on Friday that she "would love" to sit on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee if she wins her race in November.
She acknowledged the desire while being interviewed on her stances on Pakistan, Afghanistan and Iran by Fox News' Greta Van Susteren, Congressional newspaper The Hill, reported.
When asked if she thinks it's inevitable that Iran will acquire nuclear weapons, O'Donnell said "You know, I don't know. I don't have access to the intelligence information that would help make that decision. Perhaps as a U.S. Senator sitting on the Foreign Relations Committee, I will…I would love that."
On Iran, she said the U.S. needs to strengthen its military, giving a shout out to former President Ronald Reagan.
"His foreign policy was summed up in four words—‘We win, they lose'. And he did that by not backing down, by not compromising, by strengthening our military and making it once again that the threat of military action, U.S. military action, had some teeth to it. Right now, it doesn't, and that's tragic."
The woman is hilarious. Some say do not make fun of these moron teabaggers, they are dangerous and can't be taken lightly. I say phooey! This woman will never be a Senator! The Foreign Relations Committee??? LMFAO! How dare she demean our military! She is demeaning our military and our president during wartime! Is that allowed? I don't think so and she will not get away with this latest statement of absurdity!
