Birther Queen Orly Taitz Goes Down in Fight for Republican Nomination for Secretary of State (CA)

Orly Taitz, the Israeli émigré and California dentist who has made a name for herself by insisting in court that President Obama is not an American citizen, has lost her effort to become the Republican nominee for California's Secretary of State.

The "birther queen" lost to establishment-backed GOP candidate Damon Dunn, a black Republican businessman and former NFL player who, up until the last presidential election, had never voted.

With 98 percent of California precincts reporting, Dunn trounced Taitz by a margin of almost three to one, with Taitz still netting 365,684 votes.

Before the results were in, Politico spoke to political experts in California who believed that a Taitz win was entirely within the realm of possibility. Sources pointed to Dunn's campaign and wondered if he had done enough to fend off Taitz and her extreme views.

1. sure makes you question the sanity/intelligence of the 365K that voted for her

2. Both Taitz and Dunn sound like they'd make repulsive Secs of State,

but at the very least, someone as unstable and adrift as Taitz will not be close to a position of influence.

I think it would lovely if Orly Taitz became a nun and lived in seclusion the rest of her days on earth.
