Because saying, "We're pulling out because we thing it's a lost cause" doesn't go over well. If there are buckets of outside money coming in then it would mean that Land still has a chance; nobody but nobody is going to invest big bucks in a futile attempt. If Land still had a chance then the NRSC wouldn't have pulled out. Iowa, Arkansas, Colorado are all races where the Republican has a real shot. I'd bet that the money is already on its way there.

Well, I don’t believe that. I believe they are going back into the mode they displayed in the recent Virginia election where they didn’t like it that their candidate was not selected to run but a conservative was instead. When that happened their support money and resources dried up leading to a narrow Republican loss.
I think now the NRSC is pissed off because conservative donations to them are beginning to dry up. If they think they are having fund raising problems NOW, they haven’t seen anything yet.
