Former Republican Senate candidate Christine O'Donnell will speak at a tea party rally Saturday in Iowa after organizers Tuesday night reversed themselves again and re-invited her, CNN has learned.
Earlier Tuesday, citing internal miscommunication problems, organizers rescinded an invitation to her, saying they realized they did not have enough space in the program for her.
Ken Crow, founder of the Tea Party of America, said the group re-thought its decision because it was not right to cancel after offering her a role. Besides the communication issues, Crow told CNN another factor that led to the cancellation was some negative reaction to O'Donnell being invited to participate.
"We received some nasty e-mails," Crow told CNN. "We didn't do the right thing."(continued)

I like her.
And all the right people hate her.
Why is it that when pubbie men get hit, even slightly, hey run for cover, resign, make up a world of excuses, blame everyone and everything but themselves, yet the TEA Party women get blindsided, run over by a Mack truck and left for dead, then they stand up, dust themselves off, smile, and walk forward with their heads up looking better than they did before they were supposedly toast?
I would love to see karl rove swallow his tongue on national TV.
Yep, they get that painful anal itch when she is up and going.
Wow...a group actually re-evaluated their position, realized they did the wrong thing, and then reversed themselves...AND THEN they went public and said they were correcting their own wrong.
Owning your own mistakes...that’s...that’s...so unusual these days. What will happen if that catches on?
Exactly. I don’t know how anybody dares to despise her with the freakshow that we call the democrat party, to say nothing of the RINOs and the Beltway elite. Would O’Donnell believe, forget write, that extra-terrestrials are likely to attack us to punish us for global warming? And yet they have NASA contributing to such “scientific” production. They’re a bunch of peverts, compulsive liars, tax-evaders, communists and Gaia cultists, and we have to worry about alleged minor flaws of our people?
>>> And all the right people hate her.
Such as the voters of Delaware I guess.
>>> Most new groups are a bit disorganized.
Indeed. Repeating the initial mistake by renewing the invitation is the proof. They were in the clear and could have kept the meeting’s focus on business. Instead I think they just went circus.
Well, I do not live in Delaware, but I do like her. I sent her money, I worked phones for her. If she chooses to seek office again, I will do the same.
Call me foolish if you wish, but I like what I like. I now think better of the Iowa TP and will continue to support them.
Imagine that.... a Tea Party Group that is actually real grassroots and not a bunch of PR savvy establishment types. The media may have a field day with it, but out here in the heartland where a man’s word means something, it still does mean something. Good call guys. Ignore the media and do what’s right. That IS the Tea Party way.
Don’t ask MANY freeper men around here. Their jaws will drop open and they’ll say to you “huh?”
Many freeper males do not like our female candidates and former female candidates.
I like CO!!! I think it might have been a distraction to have invited her on perhaps this very historic day/weekend
Sorry, if you really liked her, she would not be a distraction.
If you were announcing a run for the presidency, it`s a distraction to have someone speaking on their book tour about how they were wronged etc.
But you are a mind reader it seems! You could save the govt the cost of trials by just telling the judge the thoughts of each person etc.
You need to translate your answer to me.
I said I liked CO, you said that if I really liked her I would not feel she was a distraction.
I said basically, it must be nice to be able to read the inner most thoughts/motives of people.
I think you understood
