Yes, Christine O'Donnell, I am calling you stupid

On many occasions and especially after the primary success of Christine O'Donnell, I feel that American politics has become our new "Reality-TV" where the absurd reigns supreme. It is akin to the "Twilight Zone"

I once stated in a previous column honoring the late Sen. Paul Wellstone that each senator has the power over our lives and represents us within the U.S. Senate. With that said, if O'Donnell is elected senator, I feel that we the people will look into the abyss and ask our Delawarean citizens who voted for her: What have you done to this country? To that, my answer would be; you have made us a weaker country by electing a senator who has NO experience in government or the laws that join us together.

Cute sound-bites and activism within the sexual realm does not a senator make. One must have the fortitude of knowledge in order to be elected senator. Yes, Christine O'Donnell, I am calling you stupid.

As we live in a global society, I often wonder what our global citizens think of this upcoming election with a "Tea Party" insurgency within the Republican ranks. Either they are terrified of what is to come or they are shaking their heads thinking that America is stupid to elect anyone of these candidates.

As a former Republican, I do think that this new Republican Party is stupid to follow this "Tea Party" movement. While stupid, I do find they are opportunistic. They just want the votes and power. Let us NOT give it to them!

Chris Coons is clearly the better candidate for office since he does have governing experience as a CountyExecutive. He has this experience since he oversees budgets, and the laws that join us as one. Yet O'Donnell gets the MSM coverage? How absurd is that? Coons does deserve to win and O'Donnell should be forgotten. Her fifteen minutes of fame should be over with right NOW!
