Senate Conservatives Fund: Schaffer the real deal(Finally!)
Hot Air ^ | 7/24/08 | Ed Morrissey

Posted on 07/24/2008 2:00:33 PM PDT by MovementConservative

Six weeks ago, Senator Jim DeMint launched the Senate Conservatives Fund, a PAC that supports strong conservatives in Senate races. DeMint created the SCF as an answer for contributors who wanted an option apart from the NRSC that focused on conservative policy and commitment to such. Today, they have announced their first endorsement — Bob Schaffer of Colorado, running for the retiring Wayne Allard seat:

The SCF post has an extensive report on Schaffer’s positions as well as his key votes in Congress. Schaffer, as it turns out, was even more conservative than DeMint himself in his last session in Congress, 2001-2, according to the Poole reports. Be sure to take a read of the SCF endorsement.

Good news! I have some place I can contribute in good consience! I quit contributing to the RNC because I did not want money going to Olympia Snowe types. I know that party trumps person, but come on now! Saying that your party is not quite as bad as the ‘rats is not good enough. I have been contributing directly to the Schaffer campaign so I don’t have my contributions diverted to the RINO’s.

You and me both. I haven't made an RNC contribution for almost 4 years. Individual conservatives, hell yes, but nary a cent that will go to a RINO.
