Christine O’Donnell came from obscurity as a GOP candidate to squeak a primary win over the Republican establishment favorite Mike Castle. Castle did not match up to the Conservatism that America is displaying nationwide ergo was painted as a RINO. The Republican establishment supported Castle because polls indicated that a Castle GOP would smash Dem candidate Chris Coons in November 2, 2010 General Election. Undoubtedly because of the polls the Republican establishment did not relish the win of O’Donnell in the primary.
Why did O’Donnell come from obscurity to defeat Republican favorite Castle? O’Donnell received the one-two punch endorsement of Sarah Palin and the Tea Party Express. The Left has done its best to portray the Tea Party Movement and the Tea Party Express in particular as a racist movement of White Americans. If you don’t listen to the propaganda of the Left and the MSM you would realize the Tea Party Movement stands for low taxes, less government intrusion and Constitutional Original Intent. All of which is the opposite stand of the socialistically emerging Democratic Party.
The Dems have gotten the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) to denounce the Tea Party Movement as Racist in the hope of casting a net around Afro-Americans to stand solid with the Dems – the Party of Wealth Redistribution (think Marxism), intrusive government and the dangerous concept of the Living Constitution.
Most likely exploiting Republican establishment disfavor the Leftist MSM has gone on a witch hunt of Christine O’Donnell’s past. The Republican disfavor of the unelectable fear factor dealt with O’Donnell’s financial history of debt and IRS problems. The MSM has painted a dead beat picture of O’Donnell. The reality is O’Donnell’s debt problems arise from a losing campaign ran against then Senator Joe Biden who won on an incumbent status in a liberal State. I wonder if there are any other Americans who gambled on a Middle America deal that paid the price for the Democratic Party causing a house of cards of financial institutions to fall because of their refusal to prevent bad loans from Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.
It is obvious the Dems fear an O’Donnell miracle in the general election coming in November because the Dem muck racking machine (Sarah Palin knows this machine well) is digging deeper into Christine O’Donnell’s past. I say “miracle” because as of September 22 Coons held a huge poll lead of 55% to O’Donnell’s 39%. Most American Liberals do not appreciate being associated with Marxist-Communism realizing that this extreme ideology is a failure as demonstrated by the collapse genocidal regime known as the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (USSR). I am guessing the deeper muck racking by the Dems is to offset the obvious about the Dem nominee for the Delaware Senate; i.e. Coons’ connection to Marxism is more obvious than President Barack Hussein Obama would dare to admit.
Coons is probably an example of why President Barack Hussein Obama has gone to great and expensive legal lengths to hide his school record history – particular BHO’s collegiate records. Below are excerpts from the Politico when conventional wisdom thought Mike Castle would be the shoe-in GOP nominee in Delaware:
An article Democrat Chris Coons wrote for his college newspaper may not go over so well in corporation-friendly Delaware, where he already faces an uphill battle for Vice President Joe Biden’s old Senate seat.
The title? “Chris Coons: The Making of a Bearded Marxist.”
In the article, Coons, then 21 years old and about to graduate from Amherst College, chronicled his transformation from a sheltered, conservative-minded college student who had worked for former GOP Delaware Sen. William Roth and had campaigned for Ronald Reagan in 1980 into a cynical young adult who was distrustful of American power and willing to question the American notion of free enterprise. (Emphasis mine)
Jeffrey Lord has accomplish a magnificent service by gleaning relevant quotes from the college article entitle, “Chris Coons: The Making of a Bearded Marxist.”
"The point that others ignore is that I was ready to change. Experiences at Amherst my first two years made me skeptical and uncomfortable with Republicanism…"
"Kenya provided a needed catalyst; …I studied under a bright and eloquent Marxist professor at the University of Nairobi…"
"Some of the 'Leftists' that I met were terrifyingly persuasive, although I never admitted that."
"…several professors challenged the basic assumptions about America and world relations with which I had grown up…and undermined the accepted value of progress and the cultural superiority of the West."
"I came to suspect…that the ideal of America as 'a beacon of freedom and justice, providing hope for the world' was not exactly based on reality."
"What do other nations think of us? Can private enterprise and democracy solve the problems of developing nations? Is Marxism an evil ideology, leading millions into totalitarian slavery? These were some of the questions in the back of my mind…"
"I realize that Kenya and America are very different, but experiences like this warned me that my own favorite beliefs in the miracles of free enterprise and the boundless opportunities to be had in America might be largely untrue."
Lord’s article is a response to Dem propagandists making it sound as if something written by a 21 year old college student is a laughable comparison between the past and the present because a mature individual would not have Marxist-Communist notions. Yet the MSM and the Dem muck racking machine does not laugh off the youthful thoughts of Christine O’Donnell.
The first muck racking disseminator of character assassination against O’Donnell was the Today Show. Matt Lauer found muck (or probably NBC dirt seekers) about O’Donnell’s flirtation with witchcraft. Dear God in heaven! Coons’ embracement of Marxism occurred at age 21 which is usually a launch pad of views as a college graduate. O’Donnell’s witchcraft occurred as a teenager in High School. How many of you have done something in High School that you regret or are ashamed of today? I know I have and I am certainly not going to address my embarrassments of my teenage days. Or let’s look at teenage life at another angle. How many of you did something you remember fondly yet in the present you would not be caught dead doing? Either way teenage experiences are something most people move on from to the next level of life.
Now O’Donnell had a teenage flirtation with ungodly witchcraft and moved on. With that in mind you have to realize that Witch or Coven or New Agers who are involved politically are usually not Republican constituents. What Political Party do these alternative unchristian believers gravitate toward? Well duh! That would be the Democratic Party. Yet the MSM media brings up teenage stupidity as a vilification of the people who probably vote for Dem candidates presuming an acceptance of an alternative lifestyle rather than being ridiculed.
Sarah Palin is a person who has overcome MSM victimization to become one of the most popular Republicans for fundraisers and endorsements. Palin’s advice to O’Donnell:
"C[hristine] O'Donnell strategy: time's limited;use it 2 connect w/local voters whom you'll be serving vs appeasing nat'l media seeking ur destruction," (The Hill quoting Palin’s Tweet)
Palin also advised O’Donnell to do FOX News which she has agreed to do.
The MSM’s agenda is obviously an attempt to destroy Christine O’Donnell’s character. Palin the experienced one, dealt with MSM vilification and has publicly asked where were those tough questions for a relatively unknown Left Wing Senator from Chicago, Illinois who became the President of the United States of America?
Former vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin alleges that the media has a blatant double standard, shining intense scrutiny on GOP Senate nominee Christine O'Donnell while turning a blind eye to then-candidate Barack Obama's personal history in the 2008 campaign.
During an interview with Fox News host Greta Van Susteren Wednesday night, Palin said: "Funny . . . That we are learning more about Christine O'Donnell and her college years, her teenage years, her financial dealings than anybody ever even bothered to ask about Barack Hussein Obama as a candidate and now as our president."
…
Obama has come under some criticism during his campaign and after for failing to release documents and background material on his life that has been de rigeur for most candidates.
Obama has yet to release college transcripts and files from his undergraduate work at Occidental College and Columbia University, and later at Harvard Law School. His college dissertation at Columbia has disappeared. Many of his official papers during his time as an Illinois state representative have also disappeared. He has never released his full medical records. (Newsmax.com 9-23-10)
Can Christine O’Donnell overcome a 55% (Coons) to her 39% favorability in Delaware? Conventional wisdom says no. The Obama Agenda and those that support that agenda as Coons does hopefully find the boot. I pray Delaware voters change Obama’s change. Let’s pray Delaware voters vote for a candidate that is for less taxes, less government intrusion and the Constitution to be worked with as originally intended by the Founding Fathers.
