Christine O’Donnell: Jersey Girl?
Delaware Tomorrow has been doing some great work a looking past the blush and the toner of the Christine O’Donnell campaign and looking at it’s weak foundation: “Who Will Christine O’Donnell Represent?”, “Tossing Your Money Down the Christine O’Donnell Money Pit”, “Is Christine O’Donnell’s ‘home office’ a violation of campaign finance law?”, and “Comment Rescue: Home Sweet HQ”. All the posts are high-quality as well as filled with insightful comments. You should read all four of them.
But a brief recap is this: Christine O’Donnell may or may not be living in her campaign office which means that the campaign money is paying for her place of residence. O’Donnell supporters say that this is not the case, that O’Donnell lives elsewhere, though they won’t say where. And too make matters worse for O’Donnell, it looks like she might actually be living in New Jersey right now.

Part of me is sad that Dave has utterly demolished Christine O’Snookie’s candidacy.
Who’s paying the bridge tolls?
It’s too soon. Can’t the liberal media kabal burry this one until it will really help Coons? Im sure the Bagz will still support her. where in the Constitution does it say a NJ resident cant represent delaware if she REALLY REALLY loves Jesus?
A lawsuit challenging her residency might be able to get her EZ Pass records.
charlie rangel in drag?
She Who Cannot Be Name has been arrested.
Not that I really care, and not that it really matters because this particular candidate won’t win but, a candidate for US Senate in Delaware wouldn’t have to live in Delaware until they’re elected to represent Delaware.
Rewind to 1999-2000, Hillary Clinton moved to NY after being elected. Yes, they bought the house in Chappaqua in 1999 but they didn’t live there. They lived in Arkansas, and then in Washington while in the White House. They owned a house in NY that they (she) ‘moved to’ after the 2000 election. Semantics.
Article II, Section 3
Oh, and then there’s that whole thing in Article II about having to be 30 years old to be a Senator, remember Joseph R. Biden, Jr., you know, Delaware’s Joe, the Vice President, he was first elected yo the US Senate at the age of 29, turned 30 before he was sworn in.
Semantics.
Biden, Clinton, O’Donnell.
One of these things is different, can you guess which one? Oh yeah, Biden and Clinton were known facts. O’Donnell, not so much.
No doubt. And I could care less where she lives, it won’t be a factor.
O’Donnell under the shadow of Christie.
How’s THAT for imagery?
cris ,chris, chris: the numbers of these beasts
If you want to go back a generation — Bobby Kennedy didn’t live in New York before being elected a senator there.
They didn’t and it is not required until you are elected so it is moot, but she does live here.
Matt Opaliski’s ‘semantics’ defense reminds me of something the malaprop-inclined former Gov. Sherman Tribbitt once said.
As memorialized by Ralph Moyed, “It’s all a matter of ceramics.”
Why does anyone think she lives in NJ to begin with? I’m confused. I didn’t see anything in the DT post even suggesting that. David mentioned NJ as an aside, but he’s an idiot.
If O’Donnell’s campaign keeps where she is living a secret, than we can only guess.
Ah…the old “Clinton did it too” defense. An old standard.
nemski,
If O’Donnell is using her campaign funds to partially pay her mortgage doesn’t she have to list the address on her FEC filings?
By mortgage, you mean rent. 😉
Yes, that’s one of the debates over at Delaware Tomorrow. Also, is it legal to do so? However, the apologists say she the campaign isn’t paying her rent anymore and they’re not saying where she is living. One commenter talked about some of her bills originating in Jersey.
For all the tea baggers complaints about Castle, one would think O’Donnell would run a more transparent campaign. But we all know she is just looking for a meal ticket.
It’s not a defense, and certainly not one of that candidate. It just is.
You mean that fat bloated GOP failure who was going to run for Governor but Delaware wasn’t ready for him yet? the guy who could have run for the 36th open seat this year but won’t? the failed internet media mogul whose internet radio venture was a flop?
That guy is passing judgment? That dope doesn’t get it. The issue is not where O’Donnell lives or how she pays her bills it is Castle’s voting record and the fact is his record if he is a Senator without the burden of having to seek re election will be more liberal.
The only money pit is anything involving the host of Delaware Tomorrow whether you invest in something he does or listen to something he talks about. He is one giant Tea Bag.
LOL. Just read the Delaware Tomorrow posts. It’s too funny watching them call each other “progressive.” It’s really obvious to me that running for Senate is O’Donnell’s job. It’s how she pays the rent. She must be ecstatic that she’s getting national attention.
Agreed, the commentary over there is comical.
You would think O’Donnell could figure out some way to bilk money out of idiot tbagz that didn’t involve the FEC. I guess she has to run for stuff until she hits on the right infomercial.
As far as the push-back against Dave is concerned, they’ll have to come up with something better than trying to ding him on entrepreneurship. I hear he is doing very well.
I like the fact the she was breeding opossums in her back yard. Opossum is some fine dining.

Nice to see our latest tea drinker is honest about it: As long as you say the right things, that is, the things the tea drinkers agree with, nothing else matters. Unable to hold a job? Dishonest about those you do? Doesn’t matter. Conservative principles triumph over all else. They approach politics like a drinking game.
The posts about Christine O’Donnell at DelawareTomorrow were not written by Dave Burris, they are mine. Every one of the articles I wrote is cited, sourced and linked for accuracy.
The relentless cyber bullying of Dave Burris by Christine O’Donnell’s supporters will not stop me from posting the truth about O’Donnell, the posts will keep coming.
That I promise.
If you go to DelawareTomorrow, I have a new post up today.
Delawareans deserve to know the truth.
Dave is not an entrepreneur, he is a serial failure who lashes out at others to hide his many faults.
Dave doing well?, yea right and so is Obama who was the ultimate fraud and charlatan. Obama makes O’Donnell look like a piker.
Dave’s sidekick, another bloated self appointed expert Mike Stafford who dreams of Martha Sturtevant every night?
Unable to hold a job, you mean like being an idiot food critic at the News Journal or having a suck show on WDEL?
YHGTBSM = You Have Got To Be Smoking Marijuana
SCORE!!!!
I love the name Maximoff but even that is not enough to get me to click onto that blog.

Failure expert Mike Protack, hiding behind an alias again? Loser Protack who has lost badly at everything he’s ever attempted to do in politics? Criticizing Mascitti, who’s had top-level success in Delaware in two media arenas? And Burris, who started a restaurant in Rehoboth that’s still there 10 years later and who currently has a successful start-up? And Stafford, one of the top education lawyers in the state?
It just kills you that guys like Burris, Stafford and Mascitti are respected voices and you’re just a miserable failure. Have fun getting your ass kicked again.
Nancy, it’s too fun watching the Republican civil war over there. Be sure to have your popcorn ready if you give it a click.
++ U.I. It is very funny.
Compared to this guy, Protack has substance. If you find a post from this “person” consisting of anything beyond ad hominem attack, let me know.
And if you find a tax return from Christine O’Donnell indicating income, let everyone know.
Perhaps the strangest thing about the O’Donnell-Protack-David Anderson group of conservative “thinkers” is their reverence for wealth as some signifier of worth vs. their hatred of the actual rich people who run their party. Just one of their many inconsistencies that force them to lash out at us rather than form a coherent political philosophy.
“Obama makes O’Donnell look like a piker.”
Too funny. Makes me want to smoke marijuana.
Top education lawyer? Have you seen education in Delaware? Duh, the guy is a fat load.
Restaurant ten years later? Is he running it? Doubt it except to eat all the food. What successful start up? You mean that colossal failure called internet radio? Why can’t he put his name on one single ballot? Because he would rather attack other candidates than be one. I remember the attack ads Burris ran in the Atkins Hastings special election, what a hack job.
Mascitti has had top level success? Are you kidding me? Food fight commentator at the NJ? and a slot at WDEL? If that is success the country is doomed. The average homeless guy has done more.
Anderson Protack O’Donnell wing? WTF? Anderson and Protack get along pretty well I think and while you Mercedes Marxists disagree with Protack name one policy or issue you can say where he is wrong? I can list a bunch. He wanted universal health care, state recycling and he is a rabid union supporter. Anderson is much more knowledgeable than 99% of the limousine liberals who run this blog.
O’donnell,without Castle’s true colors showing in a year where people are mad as hell she would stand no chance.
Anderson is middle class, Protack has lots of cash and O’Donnell has campaign contributions. There may be a mini civil war in the GOP but the Dem/libs are going down like a cheap date this fall.
WTF, indeed.
WTF seems to think that votes from angry people count more than votes from normal people and Mercedes marxists like myself.
As someone who lived through the Bush years I can assure you, an angry vote is counted the same way a happy vote is.
“Top education lawyer?”
Yes. Maybe even the best.
“What successful start up?”
It’s called Coastal Sussex Weekly magazine. Go see for yourself and look at the advertising.
“Why can’t he put his name on one single ballot?”
Maybe he’s not interested in grabbing every chance at power like certain candidates who run at every chance, and always lose terribly.
“I remember the attack ads Burris ran in the Atkins Hastings special election, what a hack job.”
If I remember correctly, Hastings won that election. Kinda hard to call it a hack job, then. Especially when you’ve lost badly every time you’ve run.
“Mascitti has had top level success?”
A column at the state’s top newspaper and a morning slot at the state’s top talk radio station means that he’s achieved top-level success in Delaware in the media.
I think maybe that the problem is that you could never actually IDENTIFY success since you’ve never had any.
“while you Mercedes Marxists disagree with Protack name one policy or issue you can say where he is wrong?”
And I remember that I disagreed with Protack on whether undocumented immigrants should get in-state tuition. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nPcD1Y-fAuo
Plus, his health care plan sucked and he basically lifted everything else from the Heritage Foundation or some other wingnut think tank.
Just call me the godfather of the Sam’s Club wing of the Delaware GOP. It is an honor to be mentioned as having a wing of the party.
Guys in the stands are the only ones who boo. You never hear booing from anyone down on the field.
Protack has lots of cash
BWAH-HA-HA-HA!!!!!!!!
