When Things Don't Go Your Way

Continuing with yesterday's story, at a radio interview with local Delaware station WDEL Tuesday Christine O'Donnell snapped her finger to summon her campaign manager/lawyer/security in an attempt to intimidate radio host Rick Jensen, when the interview didn't go her way.



During the interview O'Donnell criticized opponent Chris Coons for cutting funding for senior, but when Rick Jensen ask her what would she cut when a budget cut is required. O'Donnell called in her goon and pushed him into action as if something would happen.

After the interview, the O'Donnell Campaign asked that the video be turned over to the campaign and not released. He stated that the videotaping had not been approved by them. They also threatened to "crush WDEL" with a lawsuit if the station didn't comply.

An attorney representing the O'Donnell campaign contacted WDEL's law firm Hogan Lovells and initially asked that the video not be released. WDEL's attorney asserted that the interview and video were in compliance with all applicable laws, was clearly protected free speech under the First Amendment, and that the campaign had no grounds to demand the station withhold it from the public.

After seeing the video the attorney for the O'Donnell campaign contacted WDEL's counsel again to apologize for charges made by their campaign manager. The attorney agreed that there was no legal issue with the video and expressed regret for the incident.

So this is how the right is portraying themselves and getting their message across. Just add that to the list of crazy things that Christine O'Donnell does. Nothing is sincere or from the heart, everything is scripted and protected. How could anyone not see through her and vote for such a clown is beyond me.
