I've been employing that very Idea when I get calls from the RSCC..
I've told them I would rather donate to the candidate of my choice than blindly
trust them to divee out my donations to the likes of:
*Arlin Sphincter
*Lynseed Grahmnesty
*Whiney Voinie
*the RINO twins from Maine...
* etc.
I've had experienced phone people try and explain to me why they think I'm wrong
and my reply is "How can I be wrong when I'm the one donating?"
That usually is that last thing I say before I press the off button on the phone.
In case you weaken when the NRSC calls again, just browse this website. these are the people behind McCain and every non-conservative Republican officeholder in every local jurisdiction:

The RLC is proud to partner with the following organizations:
[I am posting just a few examples.]
GreenGOP.org
GreenGOP.org believes that environmental conservation and economic development are not mutually exclusive, but in fact complementary. Rather than fighting for environmental conservation from the political left, GreenGOP.org seeks to engage fellow Republicans, who are perceived as being “anti-environment,” in a positive policy debate. GreenGOP.org argues that contrary to popular belief, environmental conservation is consisent with sustainable pro-growth economic development policies.
