Under Tom Cole’s leadership at NRCC who BTW would NOT listen to the House Leadership, we lost the seats this time when he didn’t come through on his promise of money for ads. Remember Michelle Bachman of MN? There are many more like her throughout the Country that Cole did not help.
Yes, Tom Cole was also a major factor.
The most guilty parties are:
John Boehner
Roy Blunt
Adam Putnam
Tom Cole
Mike Duncan
John McCain
