Karma is a bitch. Several weeks back the Delaware GOP filed a Federal Elections Commission complaint about Christine O’Donnell and her misuse of campaign funds. Now that she’s the GOP candidate and since the GOP completely caved to an unqualified candidate, they tried to quietly withdraw their petition. The FEC said “nuh-uh.”
Prior to getting their establishment asses handed them to them on the end of a mob-wielded pitchfork, the Delaware state GOP filed a FEC complaint against Christine O’Donnell for illegal campaign coordination with and excessive contributions from the Tea Party Express. Now that they’re saddled with her as the nominee, the FEC is telling them no-backsies, and that they can’t withdraw the complaint… the complaint against their own nominee.
Christine O’Donnell finally has an answer for CREW about their criminal complaint:
Now the O’Donnell’s lawyer is attacking the organization which made the charges against her — arguing that the group lacks credibility because George Soros has donated to CREW.
O’Donnell’s attorney Cleta Mitchell dismissed the charge as outlandish and described CREW as a “left-wing front group” funded by the liberal financier Soros.
“If Melanie Sloan wants to deny that, you tell Melanie Sloan to reveal her donors,” Mitchell told the Christian Science Monitor, referencing CREW’s executive director. “She is not a neutral arbiter of ethics.” Mitchell did not immediately return a call requesting comment.
In other words – GUILTY!
