Interesting that she left off all of the SarahPAC logo except the bear.
She has one graphic posted for each of Trump's victories, and THEY have the complete SarahPAC logo.
But let's not kid ourselves I doubt very seriously she will raise any money by pimping for Trump right now. Even the few supporters she has left are not so ignorant as to believe that she had anything to do with his success.
I think right now it is more than obvious that the 2016 race will come down to Clinton vs Trump.
Which means when Hillary beats this orange tinted asshole it will be especially enjoyable to watch Palin lose her shit over it.
Actually I think that once that happens it will be essentially over for Palin in the political realm.
It is hard to imagine any politician, no matter how desperate, wanting Palin associated with their candidacy after watching her piss on every conservative talking point she every vomited forth and then throw her support behind a reality show star only to have him lose to the first female President.
THAT is the kind of loser stench that even tomato juice and hydrogen peroxide cannot wash off.
Morality is not determined by the church you attend nor the faith you embrace. It is determined by the quality of your character and the positive impact you have on those you meet along your journey

Okay kids you know what day it is right? Yep, it's PRIMARY day again! Update!
Okay so up for the taking today are Pennsylvania with 189 delegates, Maryland with 95, Connecticut with 55, Rhode Island with 24, and Delaware with 21.
Currently Hillary is leading Bernie by double digits in both Pennsylvania and Maryland, is slightly ahead of Sanders in Connecticut and Delaware, while Sanders is slightly ahead in Rhode Island.
Just a reminder that even if Hillary only gets half of the votes tonight it will put her over 2000, and she will only need a little over 300 to clinch the nomination.
On the GOP side it appears that Donald Trump is positioned to take every primary tonight, so really not a lot of drama there.
For that one idiot who claimed that Hillary Clinton is NOT making gun legislation a focus of her campaign.
Polls close in all five states in about a half an hour so let the games begin.
Update: Donald Trump is projected to win Maryland, Connecticut, and Pennsylvania, while Hillary is projected to win Maryland.
Update 2: Trump is now projected to win Rhode Island.
Update 3: Delaware was just announced for Clinton and for Trump.
Update 4: Now Hillary is projected to win Pennsylvania. That was of course predicted, however it is always the biggest prize of the night.
Update 5: Bernie Sanders just put one on the board with a projected win in Rhode Island.
Update 6: And finally Hillary wins her fourth primary tonight with Connecticut now added to her total.

Sucks to be wrong doesn't it?If our leaders won't stand up to the gun lobby, we need to hold them accountable.https://t.co/M5ryVG4glD— Hillary Clinton (@HillaryClinton) April 26, 2016

A blast from the past. Christine O'Donnell is being sued for breaking campaign finance laws in 2010.
Courtesy of HuffPo:
The Federal Election Commission filed suit Monday against former Republican Senate candidate Christine O'Donnell for allegedly using campaign funds for personal purposes.
The complaint, filed in the U.S. District Court for Delaware, claims that O'Donnell and then-campaign treasurer Matthew Moran illegally used $20,000 in funds raised for her 2010 Senate campaign to pay for her personal rent and utility bills during and after the election. The watchdog group Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington originally filed a complaint with the FEC containing those allegations in September 2010.
From 2010 through 2011, the complaint alleges, O'Donnell and Moran spent at least $20,000 on rent and utilities at O'Donnell's townhouse in Greenville, Delaware, which doubled as her campaign headquarters. Federal campaign finance laws forbid the use of campaign funds to pay rent on a personal residence.
Lawyers for the FEC ask the court to force O'Donnell to repay the $20,000 in expenses spent on her housing, and to find an appropriate civil penalty for both O'Donnell and Moran for breaking the campaign finance law. The suit also notes that the FEC has attempted to settle with O'Donnell and Moran for payment of the $20,000, but was rebuffed.
There was a time when Christine O'Donnell was my favorite incompetent teabagger politician, and I wrote about her often.
But then she lost to Chris Coons, which was appropriate, and I stopped giving a shit.
However seeing her in the news due to a lawsuit for breaking campaign finance rules, just made her more interesting again.
And let's face it the news could be worse. At least she's not a witch.
Though come to think of it being a witch and NOT a criminal who misused campaign funds given to her by ignorant under educated morons who actually thought she could be a Senator might be better.

Delaware becomes latest state to legalize marriage equality.
![]() |
Gov, Jack Markel signs marriage equality bill. |
Delaware is the the 11th state to endorse gay marriage after a bill legalizing same-sex unions passed the state Senate on a 12 to 9 vote. (The District of Columbia has also legalized gay marriage.)
The bill passed the state House in a narrow vote last month and was signed Tuesday afternoon by Gov. Jack Markell (D).
I don't think I have ever seen public opinion change on anything as fast as it changed on marriage equality.
Personally I think that marriage equality should be the law of the land and cannot wait until DOMA is repealed.
After all as a loving father I want for my daughter the same privileges and rights afforded to everybody's son and daughter. After all, we do live in America.

Vehement Republican anti-gay crusader indicted on charges of engaging in unlawful sex acts with a 13-year-old boy. Seriously, is ANYBODY surprised?
Courtesy of Washington Blade:
A Republican candidate for the Delaware State Senate who boasted of being a member of the anti-gay Delaware Family Policy Council was indicted this week on multiple charges of engaging in unlawful sex acts with a 13-year-old boy.
The indictment came less than a week after Eric Bodenweiser, 53, abruptly dropped out of his race for a State Senate seat in a conservative-leaning district near Rehoboth Beach that includes the City of Georgetown.
The indictment includes 113 felony sex charges, including 39 counts of unlawful sexual intercourse — first-degree and 74 counts of unlawful sexual contact — second-degree. Although the indictment doesn’t identify the gender of the victim, the Gape Gazette identified the victim as a boy who allegedly was sexually abused by Bodenweiser between Oct. 1, 1987 and Aug. 31, 1990 when he was between the ages of 10 and 13.
You know one of the main talking points as to why homosexuals should be vilified and kept away from children is because a lot of people still equate being gay to simply being a deviant who are predisposed to do something terrible to innocent children. But the facts are that the LGBT community is no more, or less likely to be a pedophile than are those in the straight community.
But do you know which group evidence suggests is the MOST likely to be a threat to our children? The Christian conservative homophobe, that's who.
I think the evidence is almost overwhelming to suggest that anybody screaming about somebody else's "deviant" behaviors is more likely than not to be the one that you should never, and I mean never, turn your back on.
Do you know my favorite part of this story?
Democratic candidate Jane Hovington, who was expected to lose to Bodenweiser by a wide margin, is now the only candidate on the ballot in the race for the 19th Senate district. She is being challenged by Republican former Georgetown Mayor Brian Pettyjohn, who is running as a write-in candidate.
That my friends is karma coming back to bite the GOP right in their lily white asses for constantly fanning the flames of hate in order to get their people elected using that "family values" bullshit.

Christine O'Donnell's only hope is if somebody convinces her to stop talking. No seriously!
You this is the part where I usually make some comical, yet scathing, comments about O'Donnell and poke fun at her personality, her campaign, and the Teabaggers for supporting her. But really what more could I add to this to make her look any worse?
Essentially she is a living, breathing SNL skit.

Christine O'Donnell's ignorance on national display during Delaware debate.
In this video O'Donnell seems to believe that America was battling the Soviet Union in Afghanistan and failed to "finish the job." Oh the stupid, it burns!
Later O'Donnell is asked about a recent Supreme Court case she disagrees with and does her best Sarah Palin impression in response.
At least in Delaware it looks like the voters know that their teabagging candidate is unfit for the job since Coons is well ahead in the polls. I can only hope that the Alaska voters will make that same determination before November 2nd.

It CAN'T be a good sign when a candidate starts off her political ad with the phrase "I am not a witch."
"None of us are perfect?"
You know I don't think anybody is looking for perfection. However they ARE looking for sane, and that is not helped by a candidate who makes statements like this one:
When one of O'Donnell's Republican opponents suggested during the primary debate that the U.S. and China should be allies because of their economic interdependency, according to the AP, O'Donnell replied "that doesn't work."
She continued: "There's much I want to say. I wish I wasn't privy to some of the classified information that I am privy to."
Yep, somebody's elevator is not quite making it to the top floor.
However I could not help but notice that in her advertisement O'Donnell looked less...how shall I put it....uptight maybe? Gee I wonder what could have loosened her up?
Oh! Well THAT explains it.

There can no longer be ANY doubt that Christine O'Donnell is Sarah Palin 2.0.
O'Donnell blows off Chris Wallace this weekend, because he might actually practice a little thing called "journalism," and instead runs right into the open arms, and barely concealed erection, of the king of softball questions, Sean Hannity.
Pare One
(O'Donnell really does not show up until 1:20 in the clip, and trust me you don't want to see the crap in the beginning.)
Apparently O'Donnell uses giggling as her signature nervous tic in place of that crazy wink of Palin's or that deaths head grin of John McCain. And Jon Stewart was right, the "Palin" IS strong in this one. She has playing the victim down pat!
Hannity even mentions "attacks" on Sarah Palin right along with the so-called attacks on O'Donnell before going to commercial. By the way, just for those joining us late, "attacks" in Palin-speak are when anybody tells an unflattering truth about Caribou Barbie.
Part Two
Hannity does not even pretend that Palin, or her advisers, are orchestrating O'Donnell's campaign strategy.
No more national media, and pretend that the local media cannot get through because of "interference" by the national journalists. Gee where have I seen this strategy before?
So let me get this straight, debate venues in "O'Donnell world" are either Teabagger friendly and fair, or mainstream media and ready to viciously attack her.
Just like a good Evangelical, everything is either filled with light and goodness or demonic darkness.
But you know there's just something missing. If she had just the ONE more Palin like idea or crazy rule then maybe she could....wait did she just say there would be no more media allowed at her events?
The queen is dead, LONG LIVE THE QUEEN!

Christine O'Donnell skips out on appearance with Fox's Chris Wallace who sticks it to her by having Karl Rove on in her place.
Is it wrong that I love this so much?
I love how Rove does not attack her so much, and ask why she is so far behind while other Teabagger candidates are so far ahead? "Hey, I am JUST asking the question!"
Later in the interview Rove suggests that Sarah Palin demonstrate her political power by going to Delaware and campaigning for O'Donnell.
By the way let me give a BIG virtual hug to the person who made this next video. I could not have done it better myself.
