Dirty Politics - Christine O'Donnell speaks out

Comment Up
Christine O'Donnell says, "By targeting me as well as dozens of other Republicans nationwide, CREW, led by a former Joe Biden aide, has engaged in several violations of federal law and my attorney has brought this matter to the attention of federal authorities. Now they will have the spotlight on them and be forced to explain why an organization that is supposed to act with the public interest is acting with a partisan, political agenda."



Politics is getting more dirty every election. We see it on the national front and what happened to Allen West that continues to this day. We saw it here locally and what Ramiccio did to Rachel Waterman and we saw it last year with the Christopher McVoy campaign. As political action and electioneering committees get more powerful, it will become more and more difficult to really know the truth and allow us to follow the money. It takes so much money to win nowadays but even more than that, it takes powerful influences behind the candidate, all those special interests that are not looking out for Joe Blow Taypayer but their own pockets.

When you see what the Unions have now become and how they, as well as other special interest groups are influencing elections such as the recent action in Wilton Manors demanding that a speaking engagement be rescinded of a standing Congressman, Allen West, it will be a constant struggle for all of us to get fair elections or even have the basic freedom of standing up for what we believe without being harassed, intimidated or threatened.

If Joe Biden doesn't like them they must be angels.
