Both of your observations are ridiculous. The GOP does not campaign against its own caucus members and the NRSC spent a lot of cash to help Coburn win.
Your observations are as delusional as Specter's.

I'm not familiar with Cogburn, but Santorum coming out for Specter torpedoed Toomey's chance in the primary. Toomey's was a true, grass-roots conservitive run.

Actually, you don't know what the **** you're talking about. The GOP did everything imaginable to stop Coburn in the primary because he was too conservative and the establishment had a centrist candidate. Only after Coburn kicked his ass did the GOP even acknowledge his existence.
In the general election, the GOP did absolutely nothing to help Coburn until HE provided enough money to show he had a serious chance of winning. Then, and only then, did the GOP take an interest in their perceived conservative embarrassment.
You may want to educate yourself before you open your mouth and show your ignorance.

Tell that to Denny Hastert.
