The press is making a big deal out of incidents that occurred when Delaware GOP senatorial candidate Christine O’Donnell was in high school. The latest of which was a 1999 statement made on Politically Incorrect, where she said she ”dabbled into witchcraft” but “never joined a coven.” After the tape was released, O’Donnell cleared up the quote asking whether it was fair to hold candidates responsible for the “questionable folks.”
“I hung around people who were doing these things. I’m not making this stuff up. I know what they told me they do,” O’Donnell told Maher in 1999. ”One of my first dates with a witch was on a satanic altar, and I didn’t know it. I mean, there’s little blood there and stuff like that,” she said. “We went to a movie and then had a little midnight picnic on a satanic altar.”
I know how O’Donnell feels; one of my first dates was a woman who voted for Teddy Kennedy. It was a long-distance relationship, only my feet were planted on the planet earth.
The media obsession with O’Donnell’s unfortunate choice of high school dates is just a politically driven effort to discredit the tea party in general and Ms O’Donnell specifically. If they were truly concerned about politicians involved in paranormal activities, they would have had their “X-Files” bureau going after former N.Y. Senator and present Secretary of State Hilary Clinton. (more…)
