it’s interesting how the liberal-progressives and the rino-progressives do not like christine.

hopefully, they will receive the same treatment in their lives.

I watched the interview. I think she’s trippin.

Piers Morgan is a tool, but his questions about gay marriage were reasonable. I just wonder why she wouldn’t answer.

The interview with Morgan didn’t seem that rough. It looks to me like the victim card was played.

I like Christine O’Donnel. And I don’t like Morgan. One little bit. But she showed that she’s not ready. If you can’t handle Morgy, then you’re not ready. Take a little bit longer of a break Christine. Come back when you’re not so gun shy.

No matter what MEDIATE’S Colby Hall’s take on it is, if you read the transcript of the interview she did with a hostile Savannah Guthrie, O’Donnell aquitted herself quite well.

I enjoy watching the dinosaur media get their nose out of joint when somebody disses them and their antics.

That was a pretty snotty article by Colby Hall.

I have taken note.

Saw the video online... it was a publicity stunt on her part.

This is attack journalism and it is reserved for people that their they dislike. These professionals are basically hecklers asking loaded questions with no interest in a balanced interview.

Christine O’Donnell didn’t know how to handle hostile media when she ran for the senate last year and apparently she hasn’t learned all that much, since. Miss O’Donnell should watch old clips of Ronald Reagan fielding tough questions from a hostile press corp or, perhaps more relevant, watch Sarah Palin as she has matured in her handling of hostile questions from the MSM. If you’re a conservative politician, when the media shows up, you’re always going to be in ‘enemy territory’. You have to know how to deal with it or be quickly eviscerated by the always-antagonistic media. Most politicians figure it out. A few don’t e.g. Richard Nixon, but those are the exception. Sarah Palin was subtly skewered by Katie Couric in one of Palin’s first network TV interviews - but that was 3 long years ago. She’s learned. Christine O’Donnell still needs to. One free tip: during a hostile interview, when possible and if not inappropriate, use humor as a deflection. You’re welcome.

Heard the audio first then saw the video.

She was so over the top dramatic it was kind of silly. Morgan is a d*ck but he was asking reasonable questions. Lightweight questions. Either she is a loon or her and her people intended on walking out before they got there.

What happened made no sense because she was being done a favor because her book was being promoted. The reason she was there was to sell books. Heck, Morgan even said he liked the book. After seeing her I would not buy anything she was selling. Strange gal...

I thought David Gregory attempted to do the same thing to Michele Bachmann this past Sunday, questioning her about her views on homosexuality at the end of the interview. Michele didn't walk out, but it's the only part of the interview she didn't handle well IMO.

Of course, in both cases, the interviewers brought up the topic in an effort to paint Michele and Christine as extremists, and both Michele and Christine obviously understood the motive for the question at the time, and didn't want to answer the question for that reason. Still the audience is composed of people who run the ideological spectrum from left to right, and with that consideration, conservatives do have to figure out better ways of handling such questions while still imparting the message they desire to leave in the minds of the viewing audience.

While Piers relentlessly pursued his question regarding Christine's homosexual views, the situation didn't appear bad enough for someone to react by getting up and walking off. It's too bad we must constantly view Christine in defense and victim mode. Her reaction unfortunately spawned more of the same in subsequent interviews. Christine has some intelligent comments to make, and it would be nice if we had more of an opportunity to hear them.

These situations are difficult when we're attempting to win over people hearts and minds, and we should put our heads together and figure out the best way to deal with them.

Don’t flame me for saying this but IMO, she’s too toxic for conservatives and the TEA party. Something is a little “off” with her.

O’Donnell is not ready for prime time and probably never will be.

Christine O’Donnell

Prime time ready..... not. But then she’s selling a book so money becomes a goal and thus any venue is usable.

I like her. I don’t think she can handle the burden of leadership in crisis. But I like her. There is something off about her, but it just makes me want to give her a hug...NOT my vote. Glad she’s on our side, she’s a soldier and she took a swing at the ball. Love and blessings on her, never be too busy to listen to what she has to say.

“O’Donnell: Please. I didn’t want to do Piers Morgan, Honestly because I knew he resorted to these dirty tricks. no, it was certainly not a publicity stunt.”

There is something wrong with this woman.

You cannot expect to write about homosexuality & masturbation in your book, yet not have to defend your comments in a Liberal interview you attend to promote your book. Then to deny doing Piers Morgan's show to promote the book is a pathetic lie.

Nobody forced her to do the interview. Obviously, she did it to promote the book & fatten her bank account. Walking out on the interview suggests she can't take the heat of open debate.

Her political positions may be great, but she is a flake.

Morgan was vile to Ann Coulter too. His show should be avoided by GOP woman.
