I was surprised to hear that Michael Medved, Freedomworks and other “GOP” groups were bashing her... WTF? I guess the separation of the wheat and WEEDS is becoming more and more evident.

Michael Medved has always been a nominal conservative - I always had the impression he could easily swing left (again) given the right circumstances.

His "conservative" shtick just happens to pay better.

I read yesterday that FreedomWorks was Dick Armey’s co-opting of the Tea Party movement. (don’t know for sure, but I believe it was Tea Party Express folks making the claim).

Maybe they know something you don't.... maybe she really is a fruit loop.

Here in Colorado, we understand the pain of discovering too late that candidates are fruit loops. Our senate and gubernatorial candidates have turned out to be pretty much a Democrat wet dream....

O'Donnell has the correct position on pretty much every issue you would care to name.

However, O'Donnell has a deeply unimpressive resume and she has not given very much concrete information on how she would go about implementing her positions.

So far, she has demonstrated herself to be a lightweight on policy - her website contains nothing in the way of substantive proposals, her speeches very little.

Additionally, her personal history makes her look like a very unserious person. And that is completely putting aside the other issues like the confusing claims of vandalism and stalking, and the last-minute accusations of unethical behavior from a disgruntled former campaign operative.

The ideal candidate is a person who has the right positions (like O'Donnell) and a personal record of serious accomplishment that can be replicated as a legislator (unlike O'Donnell).
