It's true she lost the election, which was expected, but in every other way she won. She is now a national figure that will be promoted as another Sarah Palin, who by the way is being touted as possibly the greatest political force in our country right now even by the so called liberal media. The sad part is she will now be a voice that is louder and will have a greater impact than a lot of saner and far more intelligent voices because she is now a well known national figure.

O'Donnell is a victory by Rovian standards because she will make more noise due to her loss and the national media will bestow upon her the same twisted form of credibility they have granted Palin. During my morning channel surfing the people given the most face time were Palin and O'Donnell. Every network was glowing about the "Power of Palin" and how "shrewd" she was and how she is the greatest force for change this country has seen in decades.

The Palin endorsed candidates were hugely successful and O'Donnell, who like Palin is not fit for public office, can be a huge boost to sweep other candidates into office.

The bottom line is at this point I don't think O'Donnell lost. What they wanted to accomplish they accomplished.
