Delaware politics: From middle-class New Jersey, moral activist Christine O'Donnell knew 'God was calling'

When the energy and conservative fervor of the tea party swept into Delaware this year, it found a natural in Christine O'Donnell.

She had long been an outspoken crusader for chastity, against abortion and for prayer in schools.

O'Donnell didn't merely join groups that shared her moral certitude, she founded an advocacy group and became a leading voice in others, staking out positions against sex education, urging that biblical creationism be taught in schools, and professing that homosexuality is a sickness.

She seamlessly turned that enthusiasm toward politics.

Just four years ago, she told The News Journal that during the primary she "heard the audible voice of God. He said, 'Credibility.' It wasn't a thought in my head. I thought it meant I was going to win. But after the primary, I got credibility."

"Hard work makes life better," O'Donnell said of her upbringing in a speech Wednesday. "He worked three jobs to help make ends meet. I learned from my mother how to stretch a dollar."

1. Psst, Christine! You heard him wrong.

He said, 'Credulity.'

2. Nine pages???

I'd expect that from something like Better Covens and Cauldrons Magazine, not from a mainstream newspaper site. :eyes:

7. "It wasn't a thought in my head" well duh, nobody ever assumed you had a thought in your head

and nobody ever will

8. I can't understand this at all which God is calling to the Republicans.

The God in the Bible wants you to be kind to your neighbor, to help the poor, to help the needy, and not to bear false witness. From what you hear from republicans that is all they do, take away from the poor, deny the needy, tell lies and stuff money in their pockets instead of giving to the poor. So tell me does anybody know the God they are talking about. He must be something because he walks around the USA whispering in the ear of all the Republicans telling them to run for office. No wonder the world is in a mess if that's all he has to do.

11. It's a bad connection, that part of the call gets dropped.

Frickin 3G sucks.
