Christine O'Donnell: "I Dabbled Into Witchcraft"

Republican Senate nominee Christine O'Donnell doesn't need Facebook to dredge up her controversial past statements.

As a sometime conservative pundit a decade ago on Bill Maher's former show, "Politically Incorrect", O'Donnell said (in an appearance that wasn't aired) that she dabbled in witchcraft.

In the clip shown last night on Maher's current show, "Real Time," O'Donnell said:

"I dabbled into witchcraft -- I never joined a coven. But I did, I did. ... I dabbled into witchcraft. I hung around people who were doing these things. I'm not making this stuff up. I know what they told me they do. . . . "

She got better...

And what do you suggest we do?

Stay home on November 2? Roll over like Webb Hubbell?

Ooooh! Thanks for that clip. I actually got goosebumps remembering simpler and happier times, at least from my perspective as a child. *sigh*

Can anyone think of any legitimate reason why this would be considered news?

[KarlInOhio]

don’t they know Wicca is Politically correct?

Only for active witches. Being a recovered witch is like being a recovered homosexual in leftist eyes.

I did the same crap. Then, I grew up.

Me too. I did a lot of stupid things when I was young. Now I am not, and I have experience to guide my values and morals. She is human...give her a break.

Yeah, but that's not the title I posted.

The Massachussetts 1692 Senate race is really heating up now, with shocking allegations of WITCHCRAFT! Will O'Donnell sink or float like a duck?

Well, if she's made of wood...

[Antoninus]

She turned me into a Newt.

Awesome. This gets my vote for post of the year.

CBS needs a blockbuster for ratings. How about a full recreation of the Salem witch trial? Bring back Dan Rather to host with a judge (Bob Schieffer) and jury (Pelosi, Reid, Rev Al, Castle, Coons, Rahm, Gibbs). After the guilty verdict is reached, Christine is immolated on a burning pyre. Must see TV. Sponsored by the DNC.

Christine O’Donnell: “I Dabbled Into Witchcraft”:

This should now get her the support of all the Christian-hating leftists. Right? - No?

I was just playing some Led Zeppelin...
Don’t tell the Democrats, they might send Al and Tipper after me!
