Delaware candidate: 'They're hiding in the bushes'
Christine O'Donnell said some rather odd things to The Weekly Standard's John McCormack today, after refusing to tell him where her residence — underwritten by campaign funds — actually is:

They’re following me. They follow me home at night. I make sure that I come back to the townhouse and then we have our team come out and check all the bushes and check all the cars to make sure that — they follow me.

That’s what’s disgusting, as you can see from the YouTube videos. They knock on the door at all hours of the night. They’re hiding in the bushes when I’m at candidate forums. In 2008 they broke into my home. They vandalized my home. They wrote nasty notes on my front door, on my front porch. They jeopardized my safety. They did the same thing to our campaign office. They broke into our campaign office. They vandalized our campaign office. They stole files. My campaign signs that had my picture — they put a spear in my mouth, poked out my eyes and cut out part of my heart, and wrote nasty names all over those campaign signs.

I would be a fool to be pressured into disclosing where I live, when I know that the stakes are even higher this time. What makes me think they won't do the same distasteful things they did in 2008 when the stakes are even higher, when we’re even more viable. I mean come on, John, you’re a class act. You don’t want to — you know that this is a security issue. You know what they’re capable of.

6. I assumed it was conservative paranoia or lying, but then thought, "Well, maybe it's a Dem"
I'm glad it's just a paranoid lying conservative.

7. Wow. "They're hiding in the bushes!" Dear god.

And some of them have microchips planted in your goldfish! And in your cat!

The local weathercaster is speaking in secret code to your enemies!

A persistent hum starts to sound that only you can hear every time you turn left onto a major thoroughfare. And in the same moment, the radio signal goes weak in the dashboard.

For a while you thought nothing of it.

But now, it's too OBVIOUS to just ignore!
