I didn’t ask about Castle. I asked about o’Donnell ..is she honest?
What are the problems with truth?
And I responded...is Castle more honest than O’Donnell?
You pick the lesser of two alleged evils since apparently, the folks in Delaware have already resoundingly done so.....
So, you allow she is not honest?
I “allow” nothing.
Honesty is based upon perspective.
Again, the people of Delaware spoke and voted out a RINO scumbag that long should have been gone. =.=
Basic CV items that cause an applicant’s resume to be tossed into the can. Education in particular. Owes back taxes. Defaulted on a mortgage (which some may consider a badge of courage these days).
Honesty based on perspective? Really?
STARWISE, why are you stunned?
You know IL politics and should know that Rove was/is best friends with 'KJ' who was on the IL GOP Central Committee - and who was also the friend of Blago and Tony Rezko. Recall that Bond Deal KJ worked with Blago on for a fat 'commission'? (which turned out to be bribe money, per the Rezko trial)
It was KJ and Rove who picked IL's RINO candidates while Dubya was POTUS. And it was Rove who hand picked KJ to be the Treasurer of the 2004 GOP convention. In effect, thanks to Karl Rove, the IL GOP is in shambles AND -- Obama sitting in the WH.
The fact is Rove hates all conservatives. So he can kiss my patoot.
I never considered him a 'genius', and never really 'liked him'.
Even before I found out about him and KJ.
Thanks for the info .. I had no knowledge of
that nest and his machinations. And I’m still
surprised thinking about his meltdown, even this
morning.
When you think about it, it was spoken by
someone who had a dog in the race .. no
uninvolved sideline punditry could explain it.
Do you live in Delaware?
If so, who did you vote for?
I don’t live in Delaware and haven’t even followed this race so I am curious. But surprised at the response to rather simple questions. Why do you ask? My name ought to tell you where I live.
If your just asking which of the two is more honest, seems pretty evident that despite the sheer amount of mud thrown at O’Donnell and despite her failings, she not only won against Castle but given the voting numbers, obliterated him. The issue of “honesty” comes in where when she obviously won the majority of the Delaware voters?
going to be pretty depressing to know that Castle was a gimme

Respectfully, Mike Castle is no ‘gimme’ .. just a glance at
his voting record confirms that.

He was the controllable ‘chosen one’ of the establishment,
and the people disagreed. O’Donnell won fair and square, so
this will play out as it will.
And all these party and ‘establishment’ backroom deals and machinations sadly overlook one critical factor:
what the people want.
And hopefully, they’re starting to realize now that they
do that at their peril.

Rush thought McCain could win in 2008, too. I hope Rush is right this time.
No, Rush never thought McCain had a chance in ‘08. He does not like him at all and really resented the media and the open primary system which made McCain the doomed nominee.
You're welcome.
I knew something was up when KJ worked with Blago on the phony Bond Deal as it stunk to high heaven. (I wasn't on FR then)
I got more info on KJ and Rove from reading John Kass in The Chi Trib and from the FReepers on the FR IL State Board.
Is KJ = Kanjorski (D)?
Well I for one am hughly stuned. Seriesly.
;)
I'm ecstatic that I didn't buy or read his dam book.
