Yeah it did. She could self finance. As a rule The big boys at the GOP love candidates that can sink millions of their own into a race. The only exception I can think of right now just became Govenor of Florida. In his case he had a contagion though. The Tea Party backed him. They’d have loved him if not for that.
I don’t mind Linda’s past. Elites take exception to it but I see no shame in the wrestling business. I just find it amazing the GOP because of their unquenchable thrist for filthy rich self financing candidates would overlook they were running a white women connected to a blue collar sport/entertainment in a northeast state. If the Tea Parties had rallied to her banner she’s have been splashed all over SNL and denounced by the establishment as an embarrassment. yet silence from the same establishment that wants to focus on O’Donnell. No word at all about their brilliant choices.
She simply wasn't a good candidate, and well before she ever even hinted at running for office, I honestly didn't think she was that smart.
She was a bad choice, I knew it then, but your right, if she had been a tea party person, she would have gotten the same bad wrap as O'Donnell.
How about dispensing illegal drugs like steriods. No shame in that I guess. Lets not be like Democrats and ignore our mistakes. The truth is she was a terrible candidate that came out of a sleazy business. The WWE does not have to worry about pensions thou. A lot of their employees do not make it to their 40th birthday.
