‘Oooh, Hooo, Witchy Woman . . .’

See how high she flies!

Brian at Red Dog Report has much more. The big MSM headline from last night’s Hannity appearance was that Christine O’Donnell has decided to stop doing national media interviews. and concentrate instead on winning over Delaware voters.

That’s just common sense, by the way. She’s raised more than $2 million in the week since defeating Mike Castle in the primary, and she has become such a huge national media story that some Delaware voters might think she’s getting too big for her britches. So she now she hires more staff, opens some campaign offices, starts running TV ads, gets ready for debates, and concentrates on reaching voters one-on-one at the retail level.

This isn’t anything sneaky and obscure, it’s just old-fashioned politics. But because she’s got that Sarah Palin endorsement, Christine the Teenage Witch really casts a spell over the addled victims of Palin Derangement Syndrome:

CHRISTINE O’DONNELL for U.S. SENATE

Because Charles Johnson Really Hates Her

UPDATE: Judging from the reaction on Twitter, if Sarah Palin’s theme song is “Barracuda,” we know what tune they’ll play to introduce Christine O’Donnell at her Nov. 2 victory celebration.

UPDATE II: Speaking of magic, a certain Delaware Democrat knows how to make economic growth disappear:

Chris Coons taxed New Castle County to the brink of extinction in just 3 short years as the county executive, raising property taxes for homeowners a total of 58% from the starting price.

Raise taxes and — Poof! — your money’s gone!

Spelling ‘Bite Me’ Is Fun and Easy!

Not since Americans were intoduced to the term “Scozzafava” (a synonym for two-faced backstabber) has any new hipster phrase caught on as quickly as “Murkowski,” meaning selfish bitch.

Earlier this week, Mel Bryant at Conservatives for Palin pointed out that even Lisa the Loser’s own staff can’t remember how to spell her name, as seen in the final shot of this ad for her doomed write-in campaign:

“Make history”? Yeah, Lisa: You’re the biggest sore loser in history. But you should change that slogan:

MURKOWSKI? IT’S EASY TO SPELL: L-O-S-E-R

October Surprise?

Go hard or go home, say I:

WASHINGTON, DC, 2x October, 2010: An unusually wooden President Barack Obama announced his immediate resignation in the Rose Garden today, citing medical concerns.
In a un-presidented move, Joe Biden declined to take the oath, allowing House Speaker Nancy Pelosi to step forward as the first female President of the United States. Stock values for underwear manufacturers skyrocketed.
Marxist Media pundits immediately blamed everyone they’d been blaming for the last two years.
Jimmie Carter’s offer to pinch-hit was ignored by all but Harry Reid, who allowed that Jimmie is the hottest member of the ex-Presidents club. A Platonic heat, mind you.
Robert Gibbs, asked if the medical concern had to do with Obama’s head ‘sploding due to the election results, lifted his right index finger, opened his mouth, inhaled, closed his mouth, dropped the finger, and sighed.

‘She’s a Woman Who Just Wanted to Be a TV Star . . .’

For some reason, this story struck me as pathetically sad:

“Food Network ‘chef’ Sandra Lee . . . talks a good game about wanting to help regular moms prepare quick meals so they have more time to spend with their kids, she is herself childless and regularly trots out her nieces and nephews on the show in order to bolster her Susie-homemaker-who-the-kids-just-love-golly-gee reputation. Now that she’s dating New York State Attorney General Andrew Cuomo, she also brings Cuomo’s kids (their mother is his ex-wife Kerry Kennedy) on the program. . . .
“Lee spent years as a trophy wife to KB Home CEO Bruce Karatz and became a millionaire from her first business, Kurtain Kraft. While married to Karatz, Lee began shopping around an interior-decorating show to various networks, all of whom passed. She landed a deal with the Food Network by agreeing to add cooking to the show, but it’s clear to anyone who watches the program that Lee is much more interested in matching her dishes to her food than she is at actually cooking anything, ever. She’s a woman who just wanted to be a TV star, and if pretending to cook was going to be the thing that got her on television, then she was going to pretend to cook her heart out. . . .”

I Think Stacy McCain And Ronald Reagan Share This

On the other hand, I voted for Ross Perot, so someone help me with the lumber in me e’e. 😉

Rodger SimonKimball, courtesy of Insty, notes that the “Recession is Over”. Here is a great idea for one of those Republican Governors Association ads:
Kindergarten scene, bunch of kids playing. Bell rings. Matronly woman by the schoolhouse door yells, “OK, kids, recess is over!”
The children pick up balls, coloring books, jump ropes and the like, and file past the woman into the school, and she complements them: “Good job, Nancy, Steny, Charlie, Alcee, Harry, Lisa, Barbara, Barack! I hope you kids never forget the lesson of cleaning up and not leaving a mess for whoever follows.”

VIDEO: Delaware Democrat Chris Coons Says Obama ‘Made the Right Choice’

Who’s saying “nutty” stuff now, huh?

“Somebody who’s going to work in responsible partnership with an administration that I think made the right choice on health care, on the stimulus, on the jobs bill.”
— Chris Coons

The Democrat has also said:

“My first vote would be for Harry Reid to be the leader, and to support, in general, the administration’s agenda.”

Check out this letter from a Delaware resident to the (biased liberal) Wilmington News-Journal:

I invite The News Journal to try printing the name “Christine O’Donnell” in a paragraph that does not contain the term “tea party” or “ultraconservative.” . . .
The Journal’s blatant liberal spin involving Christine is doing liberals more harm than good. The more you attack her character and give space to those bent on doing the same, the more you advertise that the whole bunch of you are terrified that she will win in November.
Your fear is completely justified. Time will tell. . . .
