Anyone who wants O'Donnell to be elected is truly not a real Conservative. The usual USMB suspects who are faux-Conservatives are making themselves heard in this thread thus far.
I love when leftists try to tell non-leftists what they should do in order to be good non-leftists.
personally, i think the woman is woefully unqualified for the job, but that is not up to me to decide since i dont live in DEso now you get to decide whats best for the people of Delaware?Anyone who wants O'Donnell to be elected is truly not a real Conservative.

well, i would prefer that a candidate at least have a basic knowledge of the first amendment before i would support themI love when leftists try to tell non-leftists what they should do in order to be good non-leftists.

Considering the bang up job that the "qualified" people have been doing in government for the last several years, maybe some "unqualified" people are exactly what's needed.
Question you ask of someone you know nothing aboutIf Delaware is one of the bluest states in the country, then how come Castle was a heavy favorite to win against the Democrat before O'Donnell won? Nice spin USArmyMoron.

and i would hope they at least understand the basic principles of the rest
including the 14th, 16th, and 17th amendment
which she showed an incredible lack of knowledge of

I think she knew the separation of church and state wasn't verbatim in the First, and was just trying to catch Coons in a rhetorical trap but ended up slipping on her own banana peel.
But yeah, for someone running for Federal office--someone looking to have influence on the Federal tax code--not being able to recall the 16th Amendment immediately... come on. That's on par with not being able to recall the 10th, imo.

That's a pretty low hurdle, and the Constitution is in writing, after all. If rote memorization is all it takes to be qualified, it's really not that difficult. I'd just like to see someone who states what their principles are and stands by them while in office, and doesn't work to sell us any further down the river.
i'm not asking that someone be able to recite it from memory, but they should at least know the 14th deals with citizenship at birth, the 16th instituting a national income tax, and the 17th changing to elected senatorswell, i would prefer that a candidate at least have a basic knowledge of the first amendment before i would support them

Not buying that. She's paraded herself as someone who understands the Constitution and that everything she does will be squared with the Constitution.
Find me a politician that doesn't say this.
The burden is not making the claim, but demonstrating the knowledge to back-up the claim. She didn't. When she can't even recall the fundamental principles behind parts of the document, it's sucks the legitimacy of out of her claims to know about and be an adherent of the document.
Knowledge of the Constitution is a low hurdle, and she tripped over it.
and for that, one should be able to have a bit of knowledge of what the COTUS actually says, no?I love when leftists try to tell non-leftists what they should do in order to be good non-leftists.

I don't really know what your barometer for "qualification" is, but as far as someone in congress goes, all I would really require at a bare minimum is knowledge of the constitution, and allegiance to it.
"Is this bill constitutional or not" is the only thing they need to be asking themselves.
uh- huh
So you want conservatives to do write ins. It's been decades since a write in won. got another excuse?

Actually, I'd want people to always seriously look at third party candidates. Especially if they are the superior candidate for that office.
This woman strikes me as not the best candidate. The reason she's surging is the left is failing to read what's before their eyes. The voters are tired of smear, especially voting games and paid smears. They went after and paid for a non-story, thinking that would draw the 'crazy right' against her, well they were too cute by half. Now the independents and some left of center women may just put her in office.
