According to Newser, Christine O'Donnell, a Tea Party candidate for the GOP nomination for the Delaware Senate race, is opposed to masturbation because the Bible says "lusting in your heart" is the same as committing adultery. (She has, of course, taken the Bible quote out of context.) She said of the fact that we have a sexually unhealthy society, "That's wonderful. It's called modesty."
The "Tea Party Express" has pumped a quarter of a million dollars into this nutjob's campaign.
Delaware's mainstream Republicans are attacking O'Donnell -- the state GOP chairman says she "couldn't be elected dog catcher." (Where, exactly, is dog catcher an elected office, anyway?) Democrats, I'm sure, would love to run against her rather than moderate Mike Castle.
