As head of the NRSC, Cornyn was backing Specter over Toomey right up until Specter's jump

Hell, probably AFTER, too.

"Hell, probably AFTER, too"

That's precisely why contributions to the NRSC are sharply down.

LOL....

John Cornyn, April 14, 2009 - "I believe that Senator Specter is our best bet to keep this Senate seat in the GOP column. A vote for Arlen Specter is a vote for denying Harry Reid and the Democrats a filibuster-proof Senate...My job as head of the NRSC is to guide the GOP back to a majority in the Senate. I can't do that without Arlen Specter."

John Cornyn, April 28, 2009 - "Senator Specter's decision today represents the height of political self-preservation. While this presents a short-term disappointment, voters next year will have a clear choice to cast their ballots for a potentially unbridled Democrat super-majority versus the system of checks-and-balances that Americans deserve."
