Rinos Experience Self-Inflicted Famine After Fouling Traditional Grazing Land.
Frowning takes 68 muscles.
Smiling takes 6.
Pulling this trigger takes 2.
I'm lazy.

Financial woes are dimming the GOP's bright prospects of making major gains in the House next year and some GOP strategists are blaming an unlikely source: Republican incumbents.
The National Republican Congressional Committee, the financial arm for GOP House campaigns, has raised less than a third as much money as its Democratic counterpart and ended 2009 with barely enough money to fully finance a single House race, Politico reported Sunday.
Despite evidence of solid opportunities in at least 40 districts this year, Republican incumbents have donated well below expectations, GOP strategists told Politico.

Sounds like a plug for RNCC funding.
I’m avoiding that.
Duplicate post. You may as well pull it.
The only thing jeopardizing the Congressional races is M. Steele and RINO friends and the RNCC! - IMHO
That, and I’m guessing that millions of sco-called “Stimulus” money is making its way to DNC coffers, via the sham congressional districts and outright theft.
It makes my blood boil, but then again, nobody seems to care about it, so we just all float on.
A lot of folks are making donations directly to their chosen canidates instead of to the RNC. Looks like it's starting to hurt them. I doubt they'll get the message.
I've spoken with the RNC jerks several times.
My conditional $1,000 contribution was based on the RNC and GOP exposing Obama, Reid, Pelosi, Franks and Dodd as frauds and traitors.
The second condition was to duct tape McCain's mouth shut on granting amnesty to ILLEGAL aliens and enforcing the RULE OF LAW!
Very few in the RNC has ever heard of the United States Constitution.
Finally, Michael Steele is simply an appeaser to the democrats. They just don't get it.
I have also told the RNC that I am donating to REAL CONSERVATIVES. We will probably send more money to candidates during this election cycle than ever before, but $0 to the RNC!
Gee whiz, if only the GOP would listen to its base it wouldn’t have any money problems right now.
The RNC has spent foolishly and I had to tell them I was through donating and to take my name of the calling and mailing lists. I explained that I had starting sending money directly to CONSERVATIVE Republican candidates during the ‘08 election and that my contributions to the RNC in previous years had been nominal anyway...lol.
LOL...I guess next time the Republicans get into office, they’ll govern like conservatives.
Learn to win the game with less $$, fellas. You can do it.
I remember calling the GOP when they were deciding the minority leader. Everyone begged them to put in Pence.
Nope.
THey want my money ?
NOPE... it is going to Sarah PAC.

I’ll donate directly to the candidate!
The GOP has to wake up and abandon the “Republican establishment” and stop endorsing candidates before the primary. A few elite have always chosen who we vote for.
Case in point: Florida senatorial race: The ‘establishment’ loves Crist, but not the people. They have endorsed him on the Republican Senatorial site and don’t even list the people’s choice, Marco Rubio, as a candidate, although they list Crist and the Democrat. The state party is also all over Crist. (Rubio has pulled up to even with Crist in the polls!)
The GOP can win big if the Tea Party groups can feel confident that their candidate will have a fair shake in the primaries - otherwise some may run as an independent and split the vote - we need those that always vote straight “R”. The GOP can still advertise for the primaries, but stress issues rather than candidates.
The ‘establishment’ is, for the most part, a disgusting group who only cares about their next cocktail party and, for the most part, can’t stand conservatives.
Is there any hope they will wake up?
That's just the way it is.
If the RNC supports Scott Brown in the next two weeks t would go such a long way to gaining donations. I’m calling tomorrow and hope many of you do as well. But in the meantime, please donate directly to Scott Brown...brownforussenate.com
McCain is supporting Brown? Guess that’s better than nothing.

Sounds like the NRCC sending nearly a $million down a Scozzafava rat hole got the attention of contributors, who are now asking themselves why would they give money to the RNCC instead of the Conservative candidates they like.
No doubt the "moderate" voters that the Republican leaders love, pander to, and want above all else, will soon be sending in scores of $millions and the Republican leaders will have more money than they can spend.
/S
I think conservative candidates will have little trouble with fundraising. Too bad the RNC feels that IT will have trouble contributing to the likes of those lib lites they keep putting forth to run.
