Stealing a page from the Bill Maher playbook, Chris Coons‘ new strategy is to let clips from Christine O’Donnell‘s past play out. The Democrat’s new campaign ad features O’Donnell commenting on witchcraft, myths, and evil scientists that “come up with mice with fully functioning human brains.” The ad sets these “strange things” to the spooky theme from The Twilight Zone, and the narrator then asks a question familiar to many voters this year: “Huh?”

The question is never answered in this ad, which, as Politico points out, is the first from Coons to focus on something other than his own record. At this point in the campaign, O’Donnell is basically out of money, and polls show Coons is enjoying a safe lead. There probably isn’t a real need for him to remind voters that O’Donnell tends to be, um, offbeat, so it kind of feels like he’s just having a bit of fun while he can. You can indulge him in the ad below.

Funny. Seasonal. Since it will likely run on Philly television, the Sestek people will enjoy it, too.

As Harry ‘s pet hamster , Coons should stick to his own record . He’s only boosting Christine’s profile . Big Eddie predicts he loses or only barely wins .

Ah Eddie covering both bases are you? Good for you.

Give the Dems credit. At least they are consistent. They have latched on to WITCHCRAFT as their big issue, and are determined to stick with all the way until election day.

Then again, if it were me, I might devote a bit of attention to the economy. Just sayin’…

Witchcraft or no witchcraft, she is going to lose, and she should.
