Interesting enough, O'Donnell got 40% of the vote without the backing of the Republican party - some say that she was actually hindered by the party in her bid for the senate seat. I believe her when she indicated this on the O'Reilly Factor show "No Sin Zone" after the election.
Delaware wasn't the only place where this nonsense was taking place. Several other races saw divided party support - some where for the Tea Party and some for the "old guys' party.
The fight for the very soul of the Republican party is on the line here, and just where we all decide to stand will dictate the outcome.
Christine O’Donnell Won’t Rule Out Another Run
Tea party favorite Christine O’Donnell, defeated in her run for the Senate this year, says she won’t rule out another campaign for political office. “I don’t know if I’d run again,” she told “Tonight Show” host Jay Leno on Wednesday night. “I’d like to keep that option open.”
The Delaware Republican said she wants to remain in politics and “be able to advocate” for issues, including the abolition of the estate tax, set to be reinstated in 2011. She also disclosed that she has been getting job offers since her Senate bid failed. “The offers have been interesting,” she told Leno. “Everything from a book deal to a reality show.”
But she said she is “not necessarily interested” in a reality show unless it is a “watchdog-type show.”
During the interview, O’Donnell disclosed that she had considered appearing on the HBO show “Real Time With Bill Maher” before he released an old clip showing O’Donnell admitting she had “dabbled in witchcraft.” When Maher threatened to release more clips of her appearances on his former show, “Politically Incorrect,” she decided not to appear on his new show.
“Whether it’s a comedian or a terrorist,” she said, “you should not respond to threats.”
O’Donnell got 40 percent of the vote in her unsuccessful Senate race against Democrat Chris Coons.
