O'Donnell: No Dancing With Stars, For Now

Christine O’Donnell released the following statement on her decision to decline the opportunity to participate on Season 12 of Dancing with the Stars:

“I’m honored to have been invited to participate in one of the few uplifting TV shows out there. The physical challenge made it all the more appealing. Meeting challenges head-on makes us stronger. Yet, for now, I have another challenge before me; to complete a book that tells the story of the 2010 election cycle with the dignity and respect it deserves.

“Many referred to the 2010 elections, and all the activity leading up to them, as the start of the Second American Revolution. This is because so many everyday Americans found themselves engaged in the civic process for the very first time. It’s humbling to have an opportunity to write a book that tells their story.

“It is my hope that this book will serve as a clarion call to my fellow citizen-activists by taking the reader beyond petitions and protests and articulating not just what we should do, but why we must do it.

“My goal is for the book and the new PAC I’m starting to serve as resources to activate and motivate those in this middle-class movement who worked so hard to launch the new revolution. If either of these projects were further along, I would be lacing up my dancing shoes right now.”

Philly Region Tea Party Group Claims Victory

The Independence Hall Tea Party PAC, the only federally registered Tea Party PAC in the tri-state (DE, NJ, PA) area, is claiming victory in Tuesday's midterm elections.
"The goal of our PAC was to 'Take Back Congress,' theme of our April 17, 2010 Tea
Party, and to fire Nancy Pelosi. We did just that," said PAC President, Don Adams.
"A majority of our endorsed candidates won, with our biggest victory being that of Pat Toomey--now Senator-elect Pat Toomey. We picked-up 5 U.S. House seats in Pennsylvania and 1 House seat in New Jersey.
"Pennsylvania is now clearly a red state, as republicans and conservatives won control of an overwhelming number of U.S. House seats, a U.S. Senate seat, the governorship, and the state legislature" said Sean Carpenter, PAC Vice President for Pennsylvania.
"We made our endorsements during the primary and are proud of the results. Besides Senator-elect Toomey, we endorsed challengers Pat Meehan (PA-7), Mike Fitzpatrick (PA-8), and Lou Barletta (PA-11). We also endorsed incumbents Jim Gerlach (PA-6), Charlie Dent (PA-15), and Joe Pitts (PA-16)."
In New Jersey, PAC endorsed candidate Jon Runyan (NJ-3) also won. (The PAC had endorsed Runyan over Justin Murphy during the primary.)
"The 'fake' Tea Party candidacy of Peter DeStefano hurt John Adler. The fact that Alder never admitted to his campaign's involvement in putting up DeStefano, despite the Courier Post's investigation proving the opposite, strongly affected the Congressman's credibility," said William Green, PAC Vice President for New Jersey.
"Jon Runyan ran a excellent campaign. He stayed on message and united both the Republican Party and the Tea Party."
"The Independence Hall Tea Party PAC will now turn its attention to the 2012 elections," said Green.

NOW Condemns Viscious Christine O'Donnell Story

The National Organization for Women has decried an anonymous Gawker story about Christine O'Donnell as a “sexist, misogynist attack.”
"This kind of sexist attack is an affront to all women, and I won't stand for it,” NOW spokesman Terry O’Neill said in a statement.
The story, published by Gawker online described a supposed randon sexual encounter with O'Donnell when she was 25 years old.
And there's more: The Smoking Gun is reporting that Gawker paid for the story and it appears as if the author may now have been identified.
The following is from O'Donnell Communications Director Doug Sachtleben regarding the story:

"This story is just another example of the sexism and slander that female candidates are forced to deal with. From Secretary Clinton, to Governor Palin, to soon-to-be Governor Haley, Christine's political opponents have been willing to engage in appalling and baseless attacks — all with the aim of distracting the press from covering the real issues in this race. Even the National Organization for Women gets it, but Christine's opponent disturbingly does not. As Chris Coons said on September 16th he would not condone personal attacks against Christine. Classless Coons goons have proven yet again to have no sense of common decency or common sense with their desperate attacks to get another rubber stamp for the Obama-Pelosi-Reid agenda. Such attacks are truly shameful, but they will not distract us from making our case to Delaware voters — and keeping the focus on Chris Coons' record of higher taxes, increased spending, and as he has done again here, breaking his promises to the voters."
The National Organization for Women (NOW) on Thursday condemned the tabloid website Gawker for publishing an anonymous account: NOW issued a statement late Thursday stating that "sexist, misogynist attacks against women have no place in the electoral process, regardless of a particular candidate's political ideology."
"NOW repudiates Gawker's decision to run this piece. It operates as public sexual harassment. And like all sexual harassment, it targets not only O'Donnell, but all women contemplating stepping into the public sphere," said NOW president Terry O'Neill.
