In a clear sign of the grassroots pressure on Republican leaders, National Republican Senatorial Committee Chairman John Cornyn just put out a statement embracing Christine O'Donnell -- a dramatic contrast with his group's curt response last night -- and writing her a big check.
It's a remarkable reversal, and a vivid illustration that the base is in charge and has the leadership running scared.
180aboutface! LOL
De-Fund the NRSC. Kill it.
John Cornyn's butt belongs to this Texan.
Unbelievable, that little hissy fit didn’t last long.
I’m guessing the reaction in the blogoshpere along with emails and calls wasn’t exactly what they were expecting.
Man these guys are so out of touch.
Idiots, all they did was give the enemy A HUGH BOOST and AMO ..WHAT FREAKIN IDIOTS!! Watch for Coon’s ad using Rove’s words against O’D!! GOSH, what idiots!!!!
NRSC Raised Money Using Christine O'Donnell's Name the Day Before Delaware Primary
Using O'Donnell's name and refusing to give her $$$$ is CRIMINAL.
CORNYN is a CRIMINAL. Resign NOW, you SOB.
“...curt response last night — writing her a big check”
Don’t listen to the talk- listen to the money!
We are making headway. Now let’s get these conservatives elected!
Never let up on these SOBs. They are traitorous and will
knife us as soon as they get the chance.
The only good RINO is an out of work RINO.
Is it possible that these Senators weren’t really kept up to date about Christine? Maybe they never saw her on TV.
She came across with megastarpower all over these tv shows over the last 12-16 hours. Maybe they’re just looking at her on tv and saying “wow - who was it that said she was a kook - she’s amazing - we want her to win” And then the neocons and the RINOs look away.
And Rove just double downed on FOX - excoriating O’C on mortgage foreclosure, college debt, taxes etc.
What a POS.
Fox News poll, should the Republican Party support Christine O’Donnell:
99.45% (11,591 votes)
No
0.55% (64 votes)
I’ve never seen anything like it. He better get on board. Cause we’ll be coming after him otherwise in a couple years. : )
We need that (bastard) Rove video from FNC this morning posted on a new thread.
Fellow Texas FReepers:
Let’s primary Cornyn’s sorry butt in 2014!
- JP
I would like to apologize for my senator, John Cornyn. His comments about the Delaware election were stupid and out of touch with what Texas conservatives think. For some reason, seemingly just because a microphone was shoved in his face, he felt the need to share his feeling about the matter. I wish I could say it was out of character, but after all he is a politician.
Again, please accept our apology.
LOL, Tea Party Security removes Carl Rove after throwing pie in America’s face ...
I don’t know how many Freepers there, actually, are but I’d guess that Freepers turned-up the therms under the NRSC’s butts last night!
