I sent this email to the NRCC a few hours ago.

The NRCC supported Dede Scozzafava, candidate for the NY-23 congressional seat, with almost $1 million. She has now endorsed her Democrat opponent Bill Owens. This represents a colossal failure on the part of the NRCC, and Republicans across the country deserve an apology and explanation. I thought the White House's vetting of personnel was bad, but the NRCC's neglect to ensure that Ms. Scozzafava even marginally adhered to GOP orthodoxy is appalling. If you haven't noticed, money is tight across America. How can you in good conscience ask Republicans across the nation to forego spending on all manner of needs when you waste it on candidates who have no party loyalty? Why should the people of country trust Republicans to be better administrators of the national budget when the NRCC has proven to be such poor steward of the hard-earned contributions of so many? If it's not too much trouble, I would like a response. If my request takes time away from your support of other unworthy candidates, then all the better.

Regards, (vamoose)

Actually, you're part right. FR is also a place for the exchange of ideas. A narrow mind is not helpful when debate is necessary.

Great letter, vamoose!
Did you send it via their new $1.4 million website - it’s reasonable to assume that they haven’t figured out how to use anything on there besides the ‘donate’ button.
Check it out gop.com - $1.4 million - now aren’t you just dying to contribute to those fools...

Why is it that Newt thinks everyone gives a darn what he’s doing? I keep getting emails announcing when and where he will ‘appear’.

Example: (I should have posted the rest of his announcement from “Education Road Tour with Gingrich, Duncan and Sharpton continues” on Newt.org:

Now does anyone really care about this?

“Gingrich is confirmed for a full day of activities on November 3, beginning in Montgomery with stops at the Rosa Parks Museum and Carver Senior High School.

The schedule will shift to Macon County with Sharpton arriving to join Gingrich at a luncheon from noon to 2 p.m. at the Sportsbook Restaurant at VictoryLand in Shorter. Following that gathering, Sharpton has another commitment and will leave the tour with Gingrich visiting the Multicultural Center in Tuskegee at 2:20 p.m. before moving on to the Tuskegee Airmen National Historic Site and Museum at Moton Field at 3 p.m.”

I hope they’re serving crow!

Let’s hope this clears the way for a Republican victory. My only concern though, is a backlash with the female vote. We’ll see.

Conservatism is principled. It’s not a show.

I prefer the following. When a liberal gets that patented look of supercilious fatuity, and begins to say, "A mind is like a parachute..." I interrupt and finish the sentence for them.

"Right. If you've lost yours, don't expect to borrow mine."

Cheers!

The term RINO is now a misnomer. People like Scozzafava are precisely what the GOP wants to stand for. Liberalism.

I was actually pleasantly surprised at news that she intended to support Hoffman, and said so.."

If you'll look at her press release when she withdrew, I don't believe she said that or endorsed anyone, just something about making her party (GOP) stronger.
