O'Donnell Snubs Schieffer
Hence her strategy until election....

GOP Senate nominee Christine O'Donnell (DE) cancels her scheduled appearance tomorrow on CBS's Face the Nation. She is apparently still planning on doing Fox News Sunday.

1. i guess the media has decided to actually ask her questions?
imagine if they'd do that for others as well.

4. I hope (dream?) that Chris Wallace
will manage to find that hidden corner where his conscience is buried and be a real interviewer. He is able of it, and in some extremely rare occasions he remembers what being a journalist actually means.

5. This is where you don't underestimate Karl Rove
His media connections are deep and he will unleash them on O'Donnell.

13. I don't think he will
I think his initial reaction was "from the gut", he really hates to see these difficult to manipulate directly "fresh faces" that do not know what and when to say, and are fundamentally stupid and know-nothings (with a couple of exceptions, I think, Rubio and Miller, these guys are articulate and "sound good"). Despicable as he is, Rove is neither stupid nor a know-nothing. But now that like it or hate it she is the R nominee, I don't think he will unleash against her any further. Just try to avoid having too much cash wasted on her. But unfortunately, even with only nominal establishment R support, she will probably have plenty of money directly from her idiotic teabagger friends.

6. don't ya just hate it when they ask those questions...
that actually require you to have a reasonable, logical answer....

FACTS? DON'T MATTER!

TRUTH? DOESN'T MATTER!

REALITY? WHAT DOES THAT MEAN?

A SHRED OF HUMANITY? NEVER HAD IT, NEVER WILL!


REPUKE CANDIDATES: JUST SAY NO TO EVERYTHING EXCEPT TEARING DOWN AMERICA!

HEY DEMOCRATS! WAKE THE FUCK UP!

11. And she will only represent those friendly to her and not all in Delaware.
How much more plain could she make that?

10. Fox News is an integral part of her campaign strategy
Listening to Hannity on the radio, Dick Morris continues to fund raise for various Repug 'bagger candidates directly over their airwaves.

12. She just said she would go on these shows because voters deserve to know her stance
(not masturbation stance). Of course the media will continue to pimp her ala Palin, not mentioning her hypocrisy and deceptions.
