I know of C4P, I am on the list, we don’t have a state coordinator and quiet frankly I am not impressed and it is looking like all hat and no cattle. Won’t answer my emails, request to meet with people to get something going. You tell me what the heck is going on, I am not happy with them at this point...

You were using Perot as an example. He started a third party. That’s what I was responding to.

If she does what what you’re describing...welcome to the Party.

The msm has successfully trivialized Christine in the eyes of many. However IMO she's fought a good fight in Delaware. She deserves a lot of credit for supporting and being a leader in the Tea Party.

I'm not about tossing her under the bus.

By adding this looney to the agenda, they sure diminished Palin further. Now, Palin will be paired at the event with this looney as the featured duo speakers. Well, does not get any worse for the Palin supporters.

The ODS is strong with this one.

After Rove predicted she’d announce her candidacy on 2 or 3 September, the Palin site said this:

“Setting The Record Straight: Wrong & Misleading
Posted on August 23, 2011
Three years ago DC pundits predicted with glee the demise of Sarah Palin’s political career. This past weekend their tune changed, citing false information that she has made a decision and set a date regarding a future campaign. Any professional pundit claiming to have “inside information” regarding Governor Palin’s personal decision is not only wrong but their comments are specifically intended to mislead the American public. These are the same tired establishment political games that fuel the 24 hour news cycle and that all Americans will hopefully reject in 2012, and this is more of the “politics-as-usual” that Sarah Palin has fought against throughout her career.”

RT @RealClearScott: Charlie Gruschow (Tea Party of America co-founder) confirms Christine O’Donnell will not speak at Palin rally on Sat.
1 hour ago

Looks like it’s a bogus story!

Apparently she was disinvited after the TP group received tons of e-mails criticizing the decision of these folks to use COD as a warm-up act for Palin.

Does this mean Christine is going to announce a run for President?

Oh, I am so sorry to hear that. Our Maryland group is doing quite well. Don’t forget that it is all volunteer, so that may explain the lack of email response. (I have had some issues along those lines here, as well.)

Weak. You don't build a movement by throwing supporters under the bus. This "she's speaking/she's not speaking" garbage reeks of amateur hour.

Interesting point: If it were not for this site, I would not have gotten that at all, as I am in no way a “Star Wars” fan. But Yoda’s manner of speaking has been referenced here so many times that I got your joke.

Gee, it sounds more like the sponsoring group didn’t have its act together. How does that make COD a looney?

And where did the supposed emails come from?

The story makes the organizers look like amateurs, but then again, that’s the Tea Party and that’s OK with me.

But “the looney” took down Castle and Tom Ross here in DE, and no one was ever able to do that.

What’s your contribution been?

Christine, I think you’re a great gal, but this is Gov. Palin’s moment. For the moment, you are out, unfair as it may seem. Your time will come soon. Bob

Not so, already debunked, Palin will speak, O’Donnell will not. As per C4P.

Even their website lists no one for New Hampshire or South Carolina.

Maybe we should add "debunked" to the thread title.
