Who in their right mind would send money to the RNC?

Maybe the DNC’s “U.S.” Chamber of Commerce has run out of money to buy off the GOP with.

It’s no wonder. Half the Republicans support the Democrats.

Calling Tea Party members racist didn’t pay off? Hmmm....

A few months ago I told the RNC they could piss off until they quit bashing the Tea Party.

More and more conservatives are contributing to individual conservative candidates, not the RNC.

WEll duh! Pelosi did robocalls BEGGING for donations because all hell will break loose if the Dems don’t keep some sort of control in Congress (or something equally dramatic and stupid like that)

Why would anyone donate to the RNC?

Individual candidates only.

This is why we’re in trouble. No, not because the dhimmis raised more money than the pubbies, but because idiots gave $8.4 million to a bunch of losers instead of the TEA party.

Hell ... those "bastards" at GOP-DC haven't seen anything yet ...


They're worried about July 2014 fund raising ?


Try this, "Reince Priebus" ...

How about I just move from Florida to Mississippi so that I can vote for Thad "Cockamamy" Cochran ?

Or this ?

I stay in Florida, and vote AGAINST that "despicable" David Jolly fraud, who, after winning a TIGHT race against Mrs. Alex Sink ...

THEN announced his support for "gay marriage" ?



All in all, I actually belief that the GOP (especially the TURTLE Mitch McConnell) ...

DO NOT DESERVE Senate chairmanships.

What do you mean? It doesn't say that anywhere in the article, and as the article states they have a significant cash on hand advantage. Some months the RNC outraises the DNC, other months the RNC outraises the DNC.

I send my money to individual candidates and some conservative groups.

Don’t ever plan to send money to RNC, NRSC or NRCC again.

UNLESS, they are taken over by Constitutional Conservatives!

I haven’t given them a dime since they haven proven themselves as impotent party leaders. Individual candidates . . .yes. . . . but the party as a whole run by elitists. . .no!

I always send a note back (with the RNC requests) to get their d@mn $$ from the Chamber of Commerce and La Raza....since that’s who they support.

Declaring war on a sizable portion of your base, and then asking them for money, typically doesn’t work out well.
