No one asked him last night. I tried to track down the statement last evening but no one associated with the NRSC popped up ~ just disgruntled staffers and campaign boosers (yeah, a pun).
Well, well, well....
Yes, it’s a nice gesture. Ya think it was because the NRSC had a heartfelt and genuine change of heart about the DE outcome? Maybe, just maybe, IT WAS THE DELUGE OF DISGUST, THREATS TO WITHHOLD CONTRIBUTIONS, AND HOWLS OF DERISION they’ve gotten in the last 18-24 hours over the whole ordeal.
Yeah, I think that was probably it.
I saw a blurb from the WSJ citing a NRSC official, but didn’t list any names.

“The National Republican Senatorial Committee does not plan to spend money on its Delaware Senate nominee, Christine O’Donnell, an NRSC official said tonight... The official noted that if her position improves, the committee might reconsider its allocation of scarce resources.”
I guess her position improved.
Last night’s thread sourced “an NRSC official”.

“The National Republican Senatorial Committee does not plan to spend money on its Delaware Senate nominee, Christine O’Donnell, an NRSC official said tonight.”
Perhaps the author of that piece, Danny Yadron of the Wall Street Journal, needs to name that “NRSC official” or explain himself.
I thought kristinn had a post that Cornyn wasn't going to help her.
