Come on folks, can we calm down about her, please?
edit- I'm not really serious.

5. but all this media attention might work in her favor? Are they reporting all the nutty stuff posted |

20. I don't even think people know what her views are.... |
|
Being a member of the tea party what plan can you have to put people back to work....they don't believe in any government intervention/spending programs.....their only plans are getting rid of taxes, medicare, medicaid and social security (as long as you don't take away their entitlements). How will that create a job?

8. I'm just sayin' - it's getting a little crazy |
|
I wasn't really serious.
I'm kinda having fun finding out how nutty she is but I'm also scared that this much of a nut won and could actually win the general.

11. I admit it: I'm a trainwreck watcher! |
|
:popcorn:
I don't think this one's going to pull through, myself. This is another case of a Palin hitting the klieg lights before anyone knew enough to keep her out of them.
(I didn't mean to be so snippy--or I did, but then I saw it was you and now I feel bad. Please forgive me!)

13. No prob. I used to live in Delaware and I just heard from a friend who knows Coons |
|
says he's a good guy. I really hope all this publicity for O'Donnell doesn't hurt his chances.

16. Actually, there is reason to be at least a little worried. |
|
Republicans are now starting to pour money into O'Donnell's campaign. I think if they really believed she was worthless to them, she'd get nothing. But she's worth at least something to them. The Mormon dude--what's his name? I'm blanking--Romney, for example, sees the opportunity to tell baggers "I put my money ($5,000) where your loud, ignorant mouths were!" But some are probably thinking, we can buy this person. She may be all rough and unpolished now, which might make her appealing enough to get elected, but if she is elected, we can buy her and own her. They probably feel this way about all of the marks they've got running for the tea party.

6. I plead guilty myself...I was just struck by how unpleasant, even obnoxious, she was |
|
in her "victory" speech, altho I know it was aimed at republicans.
However, I'm glad we had this flurry of posts because I learned some interesting things about her that I hadn't known before...
After the Nov. election, she'll be history...

And everybody is so important, so insightful, so clever that they need to start their own thread.
