As for the argument, it's nonsense. Delaware would have been far more competitive with some unified backing from the Republican leadership and without temper tantrums from Karl Rove. Nevada might have been closer if that same leadership had provided for a ground game and neutralized the MUTV effort from Reid. Colorado was lost with an exceptionally week establishment candidate for Governor hurting turnout.
Why play these games? This is all posturing for the 2012 Romney campaign.
Maes was the tea party candidate. The "establishment" never really had a candidate, the other moderate candidate was flaky, and tancredo did not run in the primary.
MUTV? RMPSers?
