Christine O'Donnell's New Web Ad Channels YouTube Star (VIDEO)

Christine Odonnell Campaign Ad

When news broke that the campaign of Delaware Senate candidate and tea party upstart Christine O'Donnell was hiring Fred Davis, the famed mind behind such productions as "Demon Sheep," to cover its advertising duties, the partnership seemed likely to be provocative.

O'Donnell's first two ads proved to be rather tame productions that nonetheless generated a ton of buzz. For the third and latest video, however, Davis appears to have abandoned caution entirely, taking a page out of the playbook of Internet legend Antoine Dodson.

"Hide your will, hide your lights, 'cause he's taxing everything out here," the ad's narrator intones, roughly approximating a horror-movie trailer blended with a more generic attack ad. "Chris Coons is the Taxman."

Earlier this year, Dodson counseled people "to hide your kids, hide your wife and hide your husband, 'cause they rapin' everybody out here," after a man broke into his Alabama home and got into bed with his sister. The chatter that followed catapulted him to Internet and national stardom.

Would let the Mansion Family run your state?

Would you let Bernard Maddoff handle your retirement?

Would you send your kids to a Catholic Priest for guidance?

Then, why would you send a criminal like Christine O'donnell to Washington?

As Ms. O'Donnell's former staff members reported, she used tens of thousands of dollars from her campaign to finance her  Read More...

I quit masturbating because of all of Christine's views so I sued myself for alienation of affection. I won and now I have to pay myself $300 week for palimony! My lawyer was of course Oily Taintz. Lmao

She is desperate - when are Democrats going to get a spine and push back against this kind of stuff!

They have been letting the GOP steal the message on paying taxes as if that is some kind of crime -without paying taxes how does one get the standard of living and quality of life that citizens have enjoyed in the United States for the last 60 years! Try living in a third world country where folks try not paying their fair share - believe me it's not pleasant living there!

I'm getting that same queasy feeling I got while watching Palin say "In what respect Charlie?" O'Donnell looks as stupid as Palin would if Palin could speak in complete sentences.

The TAXMAN needs a brief case. Looks like he might lose some of those taxes if the wind kicks up.

How can you take that woman serious? She's stepped onto the national stage and has been nothing but an inspiration for jokes.
