Remember When O’Donnell Threw Jesus Under the Bus ?

There was some clear testimony during the Coons/O’Donnell debate. Only it wasn’t the kind of testimony Christine’s evangelical base was expecting.

It was when Christine testified to the fact that she is not a religious person. but just a run of the mill vote grubbing politician, just as we all suspected.

‘What I believe is irrelevant’: Christine O’Donnell

Faith? What faith?

Now that her religious beliefs — not to mention the long-ago flirtation with witchcraft — are politically inconvenient, Delaware Senate candidate Christine O’Donnell is shutting off talk of her conservative evangelical views.

According to a story from the Wilmington News Journal, O’Donnell told a Republican gathering Wednesday night,

My faith has influenced my personal life. My faith hasn’t really influenced my politics.

That’s a different tune than during the primary when she told the paper that she “heard the audible voice of God,” urging her on and that God “was calling me” to come to Delaware and run for office.

In her debate with Democratic candidate Chris Coons, she insisted she would go to Washington armed only with her passion for the Constitution and, according to her “I’m you” ad campaign, the values of the people of Delaware.

Prayer, evolution, creationism, or a women’s right to choose on abortion are all constitutional issues, Coons replied.
