Christine O’Donnell’s New Campaign Ad: “I’m Not A Witch… I Am You”

video
» 25 comments

Looks like the Bill Maher blackmail-using-nationally-televised-video campaign is really getting to Delaware senatorial candidate Christine O’Donnell. The Tea Party-backed Republican just released her first general election ad, a simple video of her telling voters that she is “not a witch,” with a lush piano background. Instead, “I’m you.”

The ad is thin on policy and very heavy on personality. Attempting to be warm and down-to-earth, O’Donnell explains that she would do “what you would do” in Washington, instead of what “politicians who think spending, trading favors, and backroom deals are the ways to stay in office” would. She doesn’t go into too much detail about what exactly that is, but if the ad’s purpose is to clear the air as to her reputation, there is a sizable demographic for which it just might work. A sizable demographic for which this may not work? Wiccans.

Watch the ad below:

  • JimBob

    Very good ad. Who would you rather look at or listen to?
    Christine O’Donnell or an ugly, greasy hair, flat nose idiot like
    Bill Maher? Or Chris Tingles? or Olberdork? Or Mr ED? I know they are not running but they are trying to sabotage her campaign! Coons not that highly thought of .
    I have told you She is the next Senator from Delaware! I was born and raised in Millsboro!
    I know the people, both friends and relatives, most of whom WERE diehard Democrats!
    No one here is happy with current state of affairs in Washington.
    Just watch!!

    Goodness.

    Where to start?

    Randi’s not a witch, but she does a commercial wearing black against a black backdrop. Who advised that?

    Randi was an endearing bubblehead, her only positive quality as best I can tell, and she makes a commercial in which she drones seemingly endlessly.

    Let’s face it, Randi’s lumens shed light on nothing, and she got some very bad advice on this ad.

    Election night: Randi -12%. Turd Blossom was right.

    Every time I see or read about this whole “witch non-controversy”, I am humorously reminded of Monty Python!

    Actually, she is lucky she used the second person in which the pronum doesn’t change. Can you imagine the first or third person? What a nightmare.

  • Jackie_Treehorn

    Forgot to add “batshit crazy” also. Need a way to edit posts guys!

  • zumpano

    I don’t pay my taxes : I’m you

    I don’t have a real job: I’m you

    I race bait: I’m you

    I’m as smart as a rock: I’m you

    I don’t even know what a rock is: I’m you

    Oh, you said Iraq? : I’m you

    I can’t find Iraq on a map: I’m you

  • chucken

    I’m kinda like you but when I lose in a landslide because everyone thinks I’m as stupid as you teabaggers I’m not like you cause I’ll cash in as a paid pundit on Fox like Stupid Sister Sarah who also lost big and cannot get a real job.

    Unfortunately, politics is a witch hunt and the wild-eyed participants usually burn the first person they can find…

  • njoy-d-ride

    Lots of people here are scared of the Tea Party. I can tell that by the abundance of personal attacks made while hiding behind a computer. Bunch of real brave people out there.

    Who ever the clown was that made this video, she should fire him. Someone should tell her not to bite on the ridiculenous of the mainstream new organizations and keep her political candidacy local.

    Correction: It’s mice with human brains. Mice. Not rats. Though scientists have a lack of values — what, with saying the earth is older than 6000 years and all — and they’re no doubt plotting to create those intelligent rats, they’re not up to that stage yet. One mammal at a time, up the food chain. Eventually those mad scientists will be able to give even her a human brain. Won’t that be something?

  • Dandee

    Christine, stop even bringing up any of those stupid things again. We only want to know what you plan to do, if you are elected when you go to Congress. Tell us ONLY the things you agree to do, nothing else about your past. That is what it is,”YOUR PAST”, so let it stay there. Say, I just heard CHris Matthews say he WOULD

  • Dandee

    Sorry, continued; He, Chris Matthews said he WOULD VOTE for you. Now that is the statement of the day!

  • crassteen

    OK, Christine, If you are me, then you are most certainly masturbating at this very moment!

    AAAAANNNND, Christine, – Watching yourself in the mirror!

    Did she steal that music from 2 girls 1 cup?
