Everybody, and I mean everybody, is making fun of that Christine O’Donnell lady who has never held either political office or a mans ears while directing him her happy spot (oh yeah, that’s it, right there) and this general lack of respect by people who have spent the last few days pointing laughing and making masturbation jokes has Fred Thompson’s little buttercup hopping mad:

The response by the Republican political establishment to the Christine O’Donnell victory over liberal Republican Mike Castle in Delaware has been an embarrassment. A strong, vocal woman upturned the political tables in Delaware, a state where both political parties have been run like blue-blooded patriarchies for the better part of half a century, and all the boys that compose “the establishment” can muster is omniscient edicts about her absolute un-electability in a general election.

Funny, I don’t recall hearing similar talk from the likes of Mssrs. Rove and Cornyn after Scott Brown won in Massachusetts, Joe Miller won in Alaska, or Rand Paul won in Kentucky. In fact, despite similar sliming by the state party apparatus before Paul’s victory Rove was downright supportive of him, saying on Fox News that Rand Paul could win the general election, just as he could win the primary. And this was after the state party did its darnedest to tear Paul apart and to make him look like an incompetent kook, in many ways similar to what the Republican political class has been doing to O’Donnell.

To be fair, when Rand Paul said he saw nothing wrong with blacks being denied service at lunch counters, that wasn’t so much a bug in the Republican machine so much as a plank in the Republican platform meaning that Rand Paul’s greatest sin was being too honest.

But I’m sorry Jeri, how rude of me, please continue:

The difference here is that once the primary was over, the political elites in Washington stood by their men. Why won’t they do it for the woman?.

And therein lies the rub (not to be confused with…oh, enough with the masturbation jokes already). Like Christine O’Donnell, Jeri Thompson wants access to power, however, unlike serial candidate O’Donnell, Thompson thought she grabbed the brass ring by marrying grandpa Fred Thompson and riding his decaying carcass, reverse cowgirl-style, into the White House. But, in so many ways, Fred wasn’t up to the task and now Jeri is merely one of many interchangeable plug-and-play Fox news conservababes, mouthing talking points emphasized with an angry hair toss and curled, yet deliciously  pouty, lips. No fair. She was the one who was supposed to be championing one of those First Lady causes right now, like teenage illiteracy or, maybe, the heartbreak of middle-age boob droop. Sad.

So what does Jeri see in Christine O’Donnell ?

Maybe Jeri sees a young, but ambitious, girl drifting from job to job acting as a media consultant/spokesperson/wingnut welfare ronin, leaving the flotsam and jetsam of unpaid bills, liens, judgments, and garnishments in her wake as she attempts to grift a few dollars here and there in a desperate attempt to keep a roof over her head until her ship comes in.

Maybe Jeri Thompson sees herself.
