Former U.S. Senate candidate Christine O’Donnell defended her decision to walk off Piers Morgan Tonight, but also responded with a good-natured Tweet after the host took a dig at her past as a witch.

“Ms O’Donnell wasn’t happy about me quizzing her re withcraft and sex. But really flipped at gay marriage Qs. Ripped mike and fled,” Piers said.

“My first ever walk-out in 25 years of interviews … do you think Christine O’Donnell is going to put a witch’s curse on me now?”

Piers then did the professional thing, inviting Christine back on his show to discuss the walk-off. But she respectfully declined on Twitter.

“Piers, thanks for the invite. Schedule is already packed, maybe another night. No hard feelings, you cheeky bugger,” she wrote.

And that’s that.

The sorceress/politician told Fox News earlier today that she didn’t come on CNN to speak about those hot button issues, and wanted to discuss other topics instead … except that Piers wouldn’t STFU about sex!

 
Saying she found Piers’ line of questioning to be “inappropriate” and “borderline creepy,” the Republican from Delaware added: “I was not there to talk about sex – and he would not stop trying to talk about sex.”

For the record, gay marriage is a broader topic than just sex, but with this piece of work, we don’t expect logic to resonate, so forget it.
