Christine O'Donnell To Headline Troublemaker Fest In Tampa

Republican Christine O’Donnell, who made an unsuccessful U.S. Senate bid in Delaware in 2010 is back in returning to the political spotlight.

The Tea Party favorite will headline Troublemaker Fest, a five-day event in Tampa that overlaps with the Republican National Convention. According to a press release for the event, the gathering will include "the first-ever National Tea Party vs. Occupy Movement debate."

O’Donnell, who will perhaps always be remembered for a now-infamous 2010 campaign ad in which she told voters "I'm not a witch... I'm you," endorsed Romney in his campaign for the White House last year.

Responding to her support, Romney said in a statement at the time, "Christine has been a leader in the conservative movement for many years." He added, "Christine recognizes that excessive government threatens us now and threatens future generations, and I am pleased to have her on my team."

They bring in a strawman and beat him to death with talking points.
