Ok what did we miss? She’s on to talk about a book about making America great again, but she doesn’t want to talk about policy? What is the book about, again? The funniest part of this is listening to her handler trying to get her off the set…typical Teabagger when you shine the light on the teabaggers and make them face their past statements¬, they either run away or stick to some line like, ‘I’m here to talk about my campaign’ over & over again.

During the 2010 election season, video surfaced of O’Donnell indicating she’s “dabbled into witchcraft.” In the clip from years earlier she said, “I hung around people who were doing these things. I’m not making this stuff up. I know what they told me they do.” The Tea Party favorite explained, “One of my first dates with a witch was on a satanic altar and I didn’t know it. I mean, there was a little blood there and stuff like that. … We went to a movie and then had a little picnic on a satanic altar.”

O’Donnell immediately distanced herself from the quote, asking whether it was fair to hold candidates responsible for the “questionable folks” they hung out with in high school. The clarification may have been the only sane political move for O’Donnell to make. But it had the side effect of angering an already politically sensitive pagan community.

“Yes, this was 11 years ago she said that,” said Reverend Selena Fox, the High Priestess & Senior Minister of the Circle Sanctuary a non-profit organization dedicated to promoting paganism and nature spirituality. “But the kinds of things she is saying now, saying ‘well in high school you are with despicable characters’ or some such thing, she is actually defaming Wiccans. Whether she intends to do that or not as a way to try and get herself out of this political problem she has created for herself, the fact is America really needs to be a place where you can celebrate diversity and practice your religion without getting ridiculed or defamed.”

During her campaign, O’Donnell made headlines with a political ad in which she states, “I’m not a witch.” Earlier this week, she said she never liked the spot and called its release her own “mistake.”

When asked about her views on gay marriage in Wednesday’s interview O’Donnell tells Morgan, “You’re borderline being a little bit rude.”

UPDATE:
Piers Morgan took to Anderson Cooper’s show on Wednesday to deconstruct the interview everyone is talking about..his friendly chat with Christine O’Donnell, who walked out of his studio after being pressed about her views on gay marriage.

It was, above all, a great television moment, and one that will surely enter the annals of walk-off history. Speaking after the interview, Morgan still couldn’t quite believe what had happened.

“It was a bit extraordinary actually,” he said to Cooper. “Because I thought I was being my normal chivalrous self. And then she suddenly took huge umbrage, declared I was being rude and walked out.”

“It’s interesting how politicians these days…feel like they should only be asked about what they want to talk about,” Cooper said.

“I found it a very strange moment,” Morgan said. “And I don’t think anyone who watches the interview would deduce I was being rude. A little bit cheeky maybe but not rude.”

“You are a cheeky monkey,” Cooper noted, “but I think it’s fair game to ask about past statements that people have made, particularly someone’s position on same-sex marriage.”

Cooper also said he found it “fascinating” that O’Donnell got someone to stand in front of the camera “as if somehow that would help or the cameras would magically stop or something.”

O’Donnell later spoke out on Twitter, telling Morgan, “Piers, thanks for the invite. Schedule is already packed, maybe another night. No hard feelings, you cheeky bugger.”
Christine O’Donnell Hangs Up In The Middle Of Interview With Utah Radio Station (AUDIO)

Christine O’Donnell abruptly ended two interviews on Wednesday when the questions she was being asked became tougher, marking a rocky day of promotion for her new book. Not only did O’Donnell walk out in the middle of an interview with CNN host Piers Morgan, she also hung up during an interview with a Salt Lake City radio station.

On Wednesday morning, O’Donnell appeared on the show Radio from Hell on X96. O’Donnell started out by reciting talking points from her book, until one of the hosts jumped in and said, “The voters of Delaware trusted their guts and thought that you were crazy.”

Bill Allred, one of the show’s hosts, then began questioning her about whether or not her Republican primary win was significant:

O’DONNELL: That’s not quite true. We beat Mike Castle, the establishment Republican, in a historic primary, where we had 3 times the amount of turnout that they ever had.Q: So there were Republicans eating their own —

O’DONNELL: Yeah, no. There were some really ground-breaking records that we accomplished, and I’m very proud of what we did in Delaware.

Q: How much did you beat Mike Castle by?

O’DONNELL: Gosh. I have the exact figure in the book —

Q: Was it a lot?

O’DONNELL: It was about 5 or 6 percent. It was a very, very respectable margin, especially when you consider how outspent we were.

Q: But you didn’t trounce him. So you could just as easily say —

She’s gone. Yeah, gone. She’s gone! She didn’t hang up. I bet her publicist hung up. Yeah.

O’Donnell beat then-Rep. Castle in the GOP senate primary by a margin of 6 percent, receiving 53 percent of the vote to his 47 percent.

“They called back and said, ‘Oh, we’re having some phone troubles, got to go.’ And it was about that long,” he explained. O’Donnell’s representative did not reschedule the interview.

When asked whether he thought the hang-up may have been deliberate, Steadman replied, “Absolutely. I feel like it was, absolutely. I feel like…she could tell by the questioning that led up to that that we weren’t huge Christine O’Donnell fans. And they went, ‘Uh, this isn’t going anywhere. Phone trouble!’ and then hung up and got out of the interview.”

O’Donnell’s publicist did not return a request for comment.

O’Donnell also had a rough interview on CNN’s “Piers Morgan Tonight” on Wednesday, walking off the set while the camera was still rolling. Morgan was pressing O’Donnell on her views on same-sex marriage and he was confused about why she refused to answer his questions.

In an interview with Fox5, based in Washington, D.C., O’Donnell claimed the real reason she ended the interview was because Morgan wouldn’t stop asking her about “sex.”

“Well first of all I want to set the record straight, it wasn’t the question on gay marriage,” she said. “He had a decidedly inappropriate line of questions leading up to that, that many people — bloggers, are saying was just border-line creepy. I was not there to talk about sex — and he would not stop trying to talk about sex.”

O’Donnell describes her new book Troublemaker, which hit store shelves on Tuesday, as “a political memoir slash campaign diary slash position paper slash rallying cry, with an emphasis on the slash.”
