Christine O'Donnell, Class A Conspiracy Theorist

Reader Comments

Back to blog

Oh for crying out loud. Christine O'Donnell has a long history of unpaid bills and financial shenanigans. If she's done nothing wrong, which I personally doubt, it'll show up in the investigation. She'd better write a book or something, show people that she can make money without it being donated to her just because she's cute and entertaining. She'll never be a politician. It's time she grew up and entered the real world and found a real job.

Ms. O'Ddonnell has to be considered a favorite of the Democrats. A senate seat that was sure to turn Republican was hand delivered to the Democrats by Ms. O'Donell. She seems sweet and sincere and but is way over her head as evidenced by her recent senatorial campaign.

I have no doubt that Ms. O'Donell's first reaction to the investigation into her mis-use of campaign funds was "You mean big government is now telling me how I am to use my campaign funds?"

Maryszka obviously doesn't understand the difference between an opinion column and a news article (I blame Fox News, which is notorious for blurring the lines). The commenter doesn't offer any evidence to counter the premise of the column (that O'Donnell's conspiracy theory is far from credible); in fact, the unsubstantiated allegation that Biden is the "dumbest Veep" in the country's history actually supports the premise (if he is really so clueless, he's hardly one to mastermind a conspiracy against her). This is a typical Fox News-type response: launch unsubstantiated attacks on Democratic leaders (and the messenger) rather than addressing the substance of the article/allegation itself.

Biden doesn't even know what State he's from, much less know about war or the economy. He's clearly the dumbest Veep this country has ever seen! Too bad Ms. Milligan can't see beyond her Liberal bent to write an objective piece. Shame on you Milligan!
