Exactly why you should contribute to individual candidates that you support vs. “the party.”

I’m extremely glad Castle lost - With that said, because Rove made some dumb comments tonight, I do not see any good in segments within our party also tearing our sides apart. This is when we need to come together. Did Rove start that process tonight. No. But that doesn’t mean others shouldn’t begin it.

Senate Repub Committee says they will NOT SUPPORT HER.
I am changing parties to Independent. Senate repubs blow!

Castle to endorse Coons in 5, 4, 3, 2...

Good riddance.

In other good news, Glen Urquhart won the nomination for DE’s House seat.

Same rsult if Castle had won, since he would have probably jumped parties like Specter.

Sorry to say it, but we just handed Delaware to the Dems.

The race was called what, 20 minutes earlier and Rove is out making the Dems case, smearing her, YES smearing her already. He is a douche, no two ways about it.

There is NOT ENOUGH TIME for the Dems to mount an effective opposition to O’Donnell... The Dems are as caught off guard as the RINOs... The Dems will be flat-footed for the next two months and then POOF... the Dems will be gone...

The issue is senate majority.
__________________________________________

The issue is principles over party...voting for the republicans and getting “socialism slow” is worse then getting “socialism fast” from the democrats. Like a frog in slowly boiling water, “socialism slow” (ie rhino’s)gets more victims in the long run. Socialism fast under Obama has resulted in a public awakening unseen in this country in forty years. Face it FRiend, it ain’t going back to the way things were...people are catching on to Rhino’s and socialism slow.

NRSC revealing their true selves. That is exactly why I stopped giving money to National Republican Party. I give money directly to candidates.

Not long ago she was trailing Castle by 30 points.

It's coming on Nov 2 and most pollsters don't have a clue.

I just wish the Republican party would die. The “party” is useless as far as I’m concerned. All they do is stand in the way of good candidates.

“Fox announcing that the NRSC will not support O’Donnell, but will leave it to the Tea Party to support her.

Unreal.”

Just saw that myself. My useless RINO senator is head of the NRSC and will be getting a call from me tomorrow. He’s got a bullseye on his back now. I’ll be donating a few pieces of silver to OD’s campaign.

Seesh, I’ve always thought of them as RINO’s. What took you so long?

They are absolutely scared to death - the old lies and propaganda are no longer sufficient to put the bear back to sleep.

Real change is in the air and their days are numbered, and they know it.

I did that in 2006 - not one cent to the GOP party machine. I select the individuals to support financially like Dijou in HI, Brown in MA, Angle in NV, et.al.

Well the RNC is certainly pissed off, they just said they won’t spend 1 dollar in Delaware.

Sort of a self fullfilling S&M thing they got going in DC.

If they want a Third Party Challenge it’s not too late. Republicans suck.

Who is taking their ball and going home now, bunch of maggots.
The reason they can’t afford it is that WE are sending money to the candidates instead of the RNC RINO POS.

Really, this is childish, spiteful, Middle School behavior to make this announcement less than an hour after someone other than their favored candidate won.

This is some knee-jerk, childish spite being shown and it will probably cause some serious rifts, not to mention even fewer contribution to any central Republican organization.

Wow, the NRSC just announced (via Fox News, paraphrasing) that they will not provide any support to Christine O'Donnell and that it's up to the Tea Party to get her elected in November. If I ever contributed to the NRSC I'd be stopping right now.

She IS the Republican Party candidate whether they like it or not and deserves their support. Just because their handpicked candidate didn't win they're going to pout to teach the Tea Party a lesson. Screw them! The RINO establishment is shaking in their boots.
