The GOP war has begun and Delaware is Ground Zero. O’Donnell went on Good Morning America this morning:
O’Donnell also effectively called Karl Rove, who opposed her candidacy, a liar and a “so-called political guru” who’s now eating “humble pie.”
“I believe that we can win without them,” O’Donnell said, when asked by George Stephanopoulos about the opposition of GOP leaders to her candidacy. “We proved the so-called experts wrong. So I think a few of them perhaps may have their pride hurt this morning. But I didn’t count on the establishment to win the primary. I’m not counting on them to win the general.”
Asked about Rove’s various claims about her background, such as allegedly misleading voters about her college education, O’Donnell took a scorching shot at the architect of George W. Bush’s two presidential victories. “Everything he’s saying is unfactual. He’s the same so-called political guru that predicted I wasn’t going to win. And we won, and we won big. So I think he’s eating some humble pie.”
Well, she’s right, Karl Rove said she wouldn’t win. Karl Rove is also right, Christine O’Donnell won’t be Senator O’Donnell.
