No, what's stupid is to ignore reality. It's stupid to bear blind obedience to a politician - it borders on idolatry.
As someone said earlier, it might have been wise to complete some due diligence on O'Donnell. PLENTY of people warned the masses that she was a mistake - they were labeled RINOs, traitors, trolls, communists - do you think that it's possible that they appreciated O'Donnell for what she very well may be - a nut?
O'Donnell's only qualification for this Senate seat is "she isn't Mike Castle". If you think that's enough, so be it. But, you can't be surprised when she melts under the hot lights. There's NOTHING in her background that would lead a reasonable and rational person to believe she'd do anything other than melt.
She's a mess, and the best thing to do - or the only thing to hope for at this point - is that she doesn't become such a sideshow and circus that she ends up hurting other Tea Party candidates in closer races.
No one thought she could be Castle but she did.
Coons is an admitted Communist, but you are attacking her!
YOU HAVE BEEN OUTED! Only collectivists call their fellow Americans "The masses" . Buzz off.
“O’Donnell’s only qualification for this Senate seat is “she isn’t Mike Castle”.”
Actually, I like that she isn’t a lawyer, too.
