Officials in the Jack Ryan campaign have spoken to some members of the congressional delegation, asking for advice about a possible strategy for ending his candidacy in the U.S. Senate race, sources said today.
But as recently as this morning, a Ryan spokeswoman was denying rumors the candidate was reassessing whether to continue his campaign.
"We are not reassessing. Jack Ryan is in the race to stay. Jack Ryan will be in the race on Nov. 2,'' Kelli Phiel told the Associated Press.
The conversations between Ryan's campaign and Republicans in Washington came after the candidate dropped a scheduled trip to the nation's capital to participate in a fundraising event with Sen. George Allen (R-Virginia), head of the National Republican Senatorial Committee.
The cancellation of that fundraiser fueled speculation in the GOP that Ryan had lost crucial support from the national Republican group.

I don't know if he is corrupt, however, he did veto a right-to-carry bill as governor.
Whatever happened to it's his private life and none of our business?
If Ryan had to open his divorce papers, why doesn't Kerry?
Rhetorical questions-only democrats can 'change' their life and protect their privacy.
It's just about sex.
Can't we just move on?
So he shouldn't suggested sex in public, but at least he wanted his wife.
He's lost. He has to either bite the barrel or come out and speak his mind, not his handler's minds.
Throw in "Battle-Ax" Babs Boxer.
- for abortion on demand, unrestricted
- for special rights for homosexuals
- an integral part of the power & money brokerage substituing for politics in the Illinois GOP for decades
- generally Clintonesque in numerous other policies; I could go on...
Shows one doesn't need to be naked, nor in a sex club, to be inappropriate.... Which Ryan has demonstrated an obvious character issue here?
I don't think George McGovern was especially corrupt, either. ;->
What does George McGovern have to do with Jim Edgar?
Very similar in their effective positions in domestic politics, Edgar and other somewhat budget conscious liberals.
At last, some possible good news. While it's true that the lamestream media has a double standard, Ryan wasn't candid with his supporters and should go.
STEVEN RAUCHENBERGER FOR U.S. SENATE!!!!!!
Look like Jim lost a fine looking Star Trek woman.
