It is better to ignore them, but the smears are lies. And the compliant proves it to me.

You missed what Hewitt was saying about JD Hayworth Supporters, pretty much called them stupid for not supporting John McCain.

Again, I accept all these “smears”. Others call them bumps and pitfalls of a non-protected life , a life not filled with flackies to smooth the potholes.

Mike Castle is so proud of you.

So what if silly me decided to run for Senator? You don’t think the Delaware GOP, if I was stupid enough to run against Mike Castle, wouldn’t do a number on me?

Of course they would, and, as wonderful a person as you no doubt are, you may just be too flawed (through no fault of your own) of a candidate to win.

That's just life. Not everyone is the best candidate for office. For some, they are of more value to the conservative movement doing GOTV, or being a strategist, etc.

Here are some examples of what I mean. There are actual ex-criminals who are now conservatives in every way - they just wouldn't probably make a good candidate in many places. Doesn't mean they can't contribute in many ways. There are people with multiple bankruptcies and horrendous financial problems that are STILL conservative, yet have personally failed to manage their money whom just wouldn't make a good candidate in many places. Again, it doesn't mean they can't do their part - just maybe not as a candidate for high office. Hell, there are people that are just generally physically unattractive enough that it detracts from their electability. It is sad, but it is what it is - still doesn't mean they can't make a difference (just not as a candidate).

Your past has a huge impact on electability, and it does have to be factored in when deciding who to vote for in a primary. I mean, this is just reality. It may not be fair, but then, life isn't fair.

You seem to be arguing that O'Donnell's failure to disclose herself properly prior to 2010 is somehow the fault of the Delaware state GOP. Let me assure you that is not true in business, or law, or politics.

That is what the propagandist does, Onyx. Drive-by kneecapping. Get ready. We’ll be seeing more of this McCormack boob.

The lawsuit was dropped. There is no evidence ISI had such a philosophy.

But the question is, why did O’Donnell call such a philosophy “conservative”? Do you believe it is conservative to dictate that women be subordinate to men in work-related matters?

Unfortunately, there are weak-minded among us as a result of the dumbing down of society; it apparently doesn’t take much to throw them off their game and cause them to lose their focus.

“Well, before you can refer to them as ‘lies,’”

You just admitted they were from the Ruling Class.

You know, I have NO idea what college Mike Castle attended, when he graduated, what he studied.

But it’s like all the end of the world about Christine’s education record.

You don’t think that’s odd?

The lawsuit was dropped. She gave it up, when it wasn’t going anywhere. She filed a complaint with the Bush EOC, and they refused to prosecute.

Or maybe you think that the Bush EOC was opposed to workplace equity, and falsely ignored her complaint because they were RINOs who wanted to punish her for running against Castle in 2010 (using the same time machine that Castle supporters used before they broke into her house in 2008).

The old boys club does not take kindly to women crashing their beltway party. Unless you are an America-hating, pro-gay marriage, and pro-abort of course.

You've got that right. They are becoming as dangerous as Obama, et al, just to hang on to power!

They will obviously say and do anything to win.

In other words, you favor the Ruling Class.

And either you support rinos, or you think they don’t exist.

Whatever.

Mike Castle is sooooo proud of you.

I adjust my story to proclaim that Christine O’Donnell took waaaaay to long to pay off her unpaid college bills.

With a record like that....damn think of the damage she’d do if elected Senator.

She might vote for Cap and Trade....the DISCLOSE ACT...

....NO WAIT!

The complaint proves nothing. My cursory take is that it was an attempt at extortion against ISI, that failed.

The thing is that Castle is not the enemy of the Ruling Class. The Ruling Class supports Castle.

So GOP establishment has not sent out minions to find dirt on Castle.

Like they did with O’Donnell. To take what any normal person might have in their background and try to make it sound incriminating.

Your best hope, to continue your support of the Ruling Class, is to ignore the real Christine O’Donnell.

To: ubaldus
ubaldus, I was merely repeating another poster's comments as a lead-in to an excerpt from a Rush monologue on various candidates who are regular people running this year. They are not career politicians; they have issues and "baggage" that is embarassing once exposed to the nation.

Rush was reminding his listeners about what's at stake in this country right now. Conservatism is the best/quickest antidote to the obama/dem liberal agenda that is destroying America as we have known it.

Now, whether O'Donnell is a "fruitcake" (as you claim) or not....I do not know. I have not followed this race. But, it seems Palin, the NRA, and now DeMint are willing to overlook her flaws for now with their endorsements. DeMint Endorses Christine O'Donnell, Cites Tightening Of Polls

“The complaint proves nothing. My cursory take is that it was an attempt at extortion against ISI, that failed.”

Oh. Nice to see you again shilling for Castle. Your cursory take is wrong. Why don’t you debate on the facts and the law? Is it retaliation to to fire someone a week after they they file an EEOC complaint, which is a legally and constitutionally protected activity?

Maybe in Stalinist Russia or in your perfect little RINO world, it is legal but not in the United States.

Come back when you have something in your little quiver other than your smears.
